One of TriStar’s food processing customers makes potato chips using the traditional method of continuous oil frying. We were asked to recommend a solution for replacing stainless steel ball bearings in their hot oil pumps. TriStar’s engineers suggested Rulon 1439. This is a strong performer in wetted operating conditions, is FDA and NSF cleared, runs well against stainless hardware, has a temperature range of -400 to +550°F, and can withstand CIP cleaning solutions.
