Lubricants by industry
Trucking, construction, agriculture, oil and gas, fleet service and quarry work draw on the same twenty products. Pick your industry to see which engine oil, gear oil, transmission fluid, hydraulic oil, grease and coolant it calls for.
Engine oil, axle gear oil and transmission fluid for highway and regional trucks
A truck on the interstate keeps its engine oil at full operating temperature for hours at a time. Regional and local routes add stop-and-go traffic, short trips and long idling at docks and truck stops. Soot and heat break the oil down over the drain interval. Under a loaded trailer, the drive axle and the transmission run hot as well, on long grades and through Gulf Coast summers.
The fleet's list is the engine oil grade the maker calls for, the right fluid for each automated manual transmission in the yard, and a gear oil for the drive axles. Bedrock covers it with 15W-40 and 10W-30 synthetic blend engine oils, synthetic fluids for DT-12, Volvo I-Shift and Mack mDRIVE transmissions, and the 75W-90 full synthetic axle oil, in sizes from the jug that rides on the truck to the tote for the bulk tank.

Engine oil, hydraulic oil and grease for excavators, loaders, dozers and dump trucks
Construction work means dust and heat, and long hours at idle. An excavator or a loader spends much of the day at idle or at low engine speed while the hydraulics do the work, so the engine oil takes on soot and heat without the airflow a highway truck gets. Hydraulic pumps and cylinders cycle all afternoon in the sun. Dust works into every pin and bushing, and dump trucks add stop-and-go on site plus highway miles between jobs.
A contractor's yard runs on a short list: pails for the service truck, drums or totes for the shop. The anti-wear hydraulic oils, AW 46 and AW 68 in the ISO grade the equipment maker specifies, cover the pumps and cylinders that cycle all day, and the pre-diluted coolant goes into the radiator as it comes, with no mixing on site.

Engine oil, tractor hydraulic fluid and grease for tractors, combines and farm trucks
Farm equipment works in seasons. During planting and harvest a tractor pulls at steady high load all day in dust and heat, and combines and balers run hot with chaff packing into radiators and around bearings. Between seasons the same equipment sits for months, and moisture collects in gear cases and hydraulic reservoirs. Both parts of the year are hard on oil and grease.
The farm shop's own product is Bedrock J20C, the universal tractor hydraulic and transmission fluid for tractors that specify J20C, where one sump feeds the transmission, the hydraulics and the wet brakes. Loaders and implements with their own reservoir take the AW 46 anti-wear oil, and the rest of the barn's list comes in pails for the shed and drums for the shop.

Lubricants for vacuum trucks, winch trucks, water haulers and lease-road equipment
Oilfield service trucks run heavy on caliche and dirt lease roads, in dust and heat, and the engine often works while the truck stands still. A vacuum truck or a winch truck can sit at the pad for hours with the pump or the winch running off the power take-off, so the engine oil takes on heat and soot without the airflow of highway speed. Drive axles carry heavy loads over rough roads and take a shock load with every rut. Hydraulic systems on winches, cranes and vacuum pumps run hot with dust all around them.
For drive axles under heavy load, the 80W-140 full synthetic and the 85W-140 gear oils are the heavy grades, used where the axle maker specifies them, and AW 68 is the heavier hydraulic grade for the winches, cranes and vacuum pumps that specify it. Remote yards take engine oil and coolant by the drum and the tote, so the products are on hand instead of reordered a jug at a time.

Engine oils, transmission fluids and coolant for shops that service mixed fleets
A fleet shop or an independent repair shop sees a mix: several truck makes, several transmission models, trucks that idle all day in the city and trucks that run the interstate all night. Each transmission model calls for its own fluid, and a shop that stocks the wrong one or runs out ties up a bay. Oil changes, coolant fills and chassis lubes are the daily volume, so the products have to be on hand in bulk, and the data sheets have to be easy to get.
Bedrock gives the shop one brand across the engine, the transmission and the cooling system: 15W-40 and 10W-30 for the engines that specify each grade, a transmission fluid formulated for each Allison TES-668, Paccar and Eaton, or DT-12 unit in the yard, and the pre-diluted coolant for the fill after a repair. The Product Data Sheet and the Safety Data Sheet for every product are sent by email on request.

Engine oil, heavy gear oil, hydraulic oil and grease for haul trucks, loaders and crushers
Quarry and mine work is slow and heavy, and everything is covered in dust. Haul trucks climb out of the pit under full load, loaders cycle into the face all shift, and crushers and screens shake everything around them. Engines run hot at high load behind dusty radiators, gear cases take shock loads, and abrasive dust gets into any bearing or pin that is not kept full of grease.
The pit takes the heavy grades where the equipment maker allows them: 15W-50 synthetic blend engine oil where the maker calls for a heavier grade than the 15W-40, and 85W-140 gear oil for the axles and gear cases that specify it. Grease and coolant come by the drum and the tote, so the site draws from its own stock through the shift.
