Fishing Industry

Lubricating & protecting vessels that fish less ...

Free access and unrestricted demand for fish caused an estimated one-third of all fishing stocks worldwide to collapse.

In response, governmental regulations now include mitigation measures and fish quotas that stimulate the recovery of depleted stocks of mainstays and protect exotic deep-sea species from extinction.

Changing maintenance requirements

In places where overfishing occurred, often half of the fleet has been scrapped and the half that is left is fishing on half time. This changes the maintenance and lubrication requirements of the vessels involved.

Longer equipment life and uninterrupted availability

Lubricants used on ships must reduce friction, prevent wear and corrosion and should not spray off. As you now know, Interflon's unconventional lubricant technology performs these tasks better than mineral oils and greases. Our marine lubricants make a noticeable difference on lubrication intervals - efforts and cost - as a result.

For applications on fishing boats, deep-sea trawlers, ships, vessels, ferries and other vessels and in the field of dredging and off-shore, Interflon provides maintenance lubricants that deliver unparallel results when used for the lubrication of:

    • Wire ropes, cables, door-locks, knife gates, fish pumps, butterfly nuts, purse rings, automatic spooling gears - Interflon Fin Lube TF prevents wear and inhibits corrosion to minimise your maintenance effort and extend economic life, even when exposed to sea water


    • Slide bars, running blocks, deck cranes, propeller shafts - Interflon Grease LS1/2 can double, triple and possibly even quadruple your lubrication intervals whilst providing long lasting protection against corrosion at the same time

    • Bridges, ship decks, deck plates, floors, aluminium, walls, galley, engine rooms etc. can easily been cleaned with our strong, high yield all-purpose hard surface cleaner Interflon Fin Clean All (food save) 

For an ever growing group of chief engineers, Interflon lubricants have become the way forward. They prevent corrosion, reduce the need for relubrication at sea and reduce maintenance costs. Why not perform a trial upgrade to establish the benefits at your ship?
