AUTEX is the designated food-grade oil for AUTEC commercial sushi robots and rice-processing equipment. It helps prevent cooked sushi rice from sticking to machine components and compatible food-contact surfaces, providing lubrication and protection against rust. Using substitute oils can cause equipment damage or failure.

The clear, odorless and flavorless formula uses high-oleic, expeller-pressed sunflower oil from non-GMO seeds and is Star-K Kosher Certified. It provides rice release without adding unwanted taste or aroma. Heavier general-purpose vegetable oils can leave sticky residue on precision components.

Apply a light coating before operation to compatible maki, nigiri and onigiri equipment, sushi rice sheeters, shari mixers, rice trays and rice boxes. Each 8 fl oz bottle includes a reusable fine-mist spray trigger for uniform coverage with less excess oil.
