Jost has recently released a high-performance lubricant for its fifth wheel couplings that is completely biodegradable.
With the development of the electronically controlled LubeTronic system, Jost has already succeeded in reducing the amount of grease needed to about 1.6kg per year. Now, the company is taking the next step by introducing a grease that is biodegradable in accordance with the OECD 301 B biodegradation test. In independent tests, the high-performance lubricant exceeded the demands of the standard and received the rating of ‘readily biodegradable’; it degrades especially quickly and easily.
