About the company

Zebra Skimmers Corp is a United States manufacturer of industrial coolant and oil management equipment, based in Solon, Ohio (27000 Richmond Rd, Unit 1, Solon, OH 44139). Zebra designs and builds equipment that helps manufacturing shops remove tramp oil from coolant, mix coolant to the correct concentration, measure coolant concentration, and extend coolant sump and tool life. Products are sold direct at zebraskimmers.com and through industrial distributors.

Primary customers: CNC machine shops, metalworking and manufacturing facilities, and industrial plants that run water-soluble coolant sumps and need to control tramp oil, coolant concentration, and coolant life.

What Zebra makes

1. Oil / tramp-oil skimmers — remove floating tramp oil from coolant sumps and tanks.
2. Coolant mixing equipment — mix coolant concentrate with water to a precise ratio.
3. Refractometers — measure coolant concentration.
4. Coolant treatment — control odor and biological growth in sumps.
5. Accessories & kits — replacement parts, swivels, lockouts, and seasonal sump-refresh kits.

Product lines and key specs

Tube skimmers

• ZVA8 Sidewinder Tube Skimmer — collector-tube oil skimmer for sumps and tanks; multiple voltage/configuration options.
• 24 VDC Sidewinder Tube Skimmer — low-voltage (24 VDC) version for installations requiring DC power.

Belt skimmers

• Tramp Oil Poly Belt Skimmer — polymer-belt oil skimmer for continuous tramp-oil removal.
• Belt Oil Skimmer with Stainless Steel Belt — stainless-belt version for higher-temperature or more aggressive fluids.
• Zebra-Style Haas Coolant Oil Skimmer — belt skimmer sized and styled to fit Haas CNC machine coolant tanks.

Disk skimmers

• Disk Skimmers — rotating-disk oil skimmers for sumps where a disk format fits best.

Coolant mixing

• Machinist Venturi Mixer — venturi-style automatic coolant proportioning mixer. Mixes water-soluble coolant concentrate with water at a fixed ratio as it flows, outputting ready-to-use coolant emulsion to drums, pails, totes, or CNC sumps. Machined solid-bronze body with galvanized-steel stand pipe; stainless option for deionized water. Uses FORCE-FLO™ technology (machined needle valve, locknut mixing reference, standpipe check valve). Requires 25–75 psi water pressure; handles coolant up to 500 SUS viscosity (use a proportioning pump above that). Variants by flow rate (3 GPM and 10 GPM) and concentration range (0–7% and 0–25%), plus a stainless DI-water-safe model. Typical price range about $430–$640 USD depending on model — see the product page for current pricing.
• Coolant Proportioning Pump — pump-driven coolant mixer for higher-viscosity coolants (over 500 SUS), longer discharge runs, or plumbing to multiple CNC machines.

Refractometers

• Handheld Optical BRIX Refractometer — manual optical refractometer for reading coolant concentration in BRIX.
• BRIX Digital Refractometer — digital refractometer for fast, repeatable coolant-concentration readings.

Coolant treatment & kits

• Coolant Odor Control Tablets — tablets that control odor and biological growth in coolant sumps over the weekend / between runs.
• Summer Sump Refresh Kit — seasonal kit combining skimming and treatment products to refresh coolant sumps.

Quick selection guidance

• Tramp oil on the coolant surface? Use a skimmer — tube (Sidewinder), belt (poly or stainless), or disk, chosen by sump geometry and oil volume. For Haas CNC tanks, the Zebra-Style Haas skimmer is purpose-fit.
• Need consistent coolant concentration? Use the Machinist Venturi Mixer for typical coolants (≤500 SUS, adequate water pressure). Use the Coolant Proportioning Pump for thick coolants, low water pressure, long runs, or multi-machine plumbing.
• Checking concentration? Use an optical or digital BRIX refractometer.
• Sump smells / goes bad over the weekend? Use Coolant Odor Control Tablets.
