About Us

Company Profile
Inland Vacuum is the industry leader in the manufacture and distribution of high quality vacuum pump fluids. Inland Vacuum was founded in 1972 in Churchville, New York. For over forty years, we have offered our customers quality, cost effective vacuum fluids necessary to meet the changing technology in high vacuum systems.

Products, Services, and Markets
Inland Vacuum manufactures and distributes a complete line of mechanical and diffusion pump fluids for all pump types and vacuum applications. Since vacuum fluids are our primary business and not a sideline, Inland has made the manufacture of vacuum distilled products our area of expertise. In support of our broad range of vacuum fluids, Inland also offers a line of preventive maintenance products, heat transfer fluids, and high vacuum greases and waxes. Inland’s services include custom distillation of fluids and a reclamation service for used fluids.

Inland’s mechanical pump fluids are vacuum distilled paraffinic hydrocarbons containing no aromatic or viscosity improvers that are lost during oil filtration. Compared to undistilled vacuum pump fluid, Inland’s pure vacuum mechanical pump fluids provide excellent lubricity, oxidation resistance, lower vapor pressure, and four to ten times longer fluid life. Inland also offers a complete line of complimentary PFPE and HaloVac inert vacuum pump fluids.

Inland Vacuum also offers a broad line of diffusion pump fluids for a wide range of applications. These fluids include distilled hydrocarbons, silicones, organic esters, and other synthetics.

Preventive maintenance products include flushing fluids, solvents, acidity test kits, and vacuum service safety carts. Regular preventive maintenance practices will lengthen the life of a pump, reduce costly down-time, reduce the cost of repairs, and optimize performance levels.

In response to customer concerns over rising cost and ecological waste problems, Inland Vacuum has developed a reclamation process for used or contaminated pump fluids. This serves to recover or prolong the life of both mechanical and diffusion fluids. Inland’s reclamation process will produce a high-yield, quality product that meets the performance specifications of new fluid. Through the stringent testing procedures done on reclaimed fluids, Inland can guarantee a fluid that meets or exceeds original specifications.Our research department, which is always committed to new product development, works closely with both end users and pump manufacturers in order to be the leader in vacuum pump fluids.

Through this association, Inland has learned to manufacture vacuum fluids that enable vacuum pumps to attain optimal performance for all applications.

Our Commitment to Quality
As a commitment to our high quality standards, Inland has instituted a Statistical Process Control Program, which constantly monitors critical control operations ranging from inspection, production, and packaging. Using the Statistical Process Control Program, our engineers can immediately observe any statistical variations in process production and make appropriate on-line corrections, enabling complete adherence to Inland’s manufacturing specifications and stringent quality requirements.

All fluids that Inland manufactures are batch tested and must conform to strict viscosity and low vapor pressure specifications. Each batch is numbered and samples are kept for future reference. Our strict quality procedures insure a product that is recommended by major pump manufacturers.

Our products are marketed worldwide and are used in a number of various industries. Our customer base is exceptionally broad, ranging from small proprietorships to major manufacturers and research institutions throughout the world.
