When we need our critical processing system Gearbox oil filtered we turn to Y2K’s Filtration systems because we know it will keep our equipment running at maximum efficiency, your equipment makes me look good as the primary Maintenance tech I get evaluated based on my ability to keep our equipment running and Y2K plays a big part in that.
