FUCHS Lubricants Co. highlights FUCHS BluEV EDF 4101, a high-performance, sustainable wet EDF driveline lubricant specifically engineered for electric drive unit (EDU) and e-axle architectures with shared sump configurations between the gearbox and e-motor. FUCHS BluEV EDF 4101 delivers exceptional gear and bearing protection while simultaneously maximizing overall vehicle efficiency, combining state-of-the-art additive technology with premium, low-viscosity base oils. As the demands of e-mobility continue to evolve, FUCHS BluEV EDF 4101 stands out for its ability to address the conflicting requirements of efficiency and durable hardware protection, ensuring reliable, long-term operation of battery electric vehicles (BEVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) with common sump systems for both gearbox and e-motor. Highly oxidatively stable, the formulation prevents the formation of conductive oxidation byproducts and provides excellent cooling performance. Additionally, it offers outstanding resistance to aeration, shearing and thermal degradation. In benchmarking tests, FUCHS BluEV EDF 4101 achieved improved efficiency, reducing overall energy consumption compared to key competitors; this results in more range per charge and tangible cost savings for automakers and fleet operators. The lubricant demonstrated two failure load stages better than Dexron VI ATF in the demanding A1016.6R90 FZG test and delivered significant gear scuffing protection, underscoring its capabilities in even the most challenging operating environments. FUCHS BluEV EDF 4101 offers broad suitability for modern seal, insulation, and electronics materials found within new energy vehicles. Its advanced formulation improves corrosion resistance and electrical compatibility versus leading competitive products, preventing corrosion of copper and other metals, maintaining electrical resistance properties, and extending overall hardware lifespan. Actual drive cycle testing revealed FUCHS BluEV EDF 4101 delivers a 0.5 percent efficiency improvement over competitive fluids, minimizing energy losses, extending driving range, and reducing required charging cycles, ultimately helping preserve battery life and supporting a more sustainable operation. As part of the FUCHS BluEV product line, designed especially for the requirements of e-mobility, FUCHS BluEV EDF 4101 directly addresses the evolving needs of the electrified passenger car manufacturing sector with solutions that advance the transition to cleaner transportation.

2026 New Week VAFEM product Recommendation:
A linear-motion bearing or linear slide is a bearing designed to provide free motion in one direction. There are many different types of linear motion bearings. Motorized linear slides such as machine slides, X-Y tables, roller tables and some dovetail slides are bearings moved by drive mechanisms. Not all linear slides are motorized, and non-motorized dovetail slides, ball bearing slides and roller slides provide low-friction linear movement for equipment powered by inertia or by hand. All linear slides provide linear motion based on bearings, whether they are ball bearings, dovetail bearings, linear roller bearings, magnetic or fluid bearings. X-Y tables, linear stages, machine slides and other advanced slides use linear motion bearings to provide movement along both X and Y multiple axis.
