I have indexed the product names using the StandardAnalyzer and I store the product names as Field.Text. I suspect the StandardAnalyzer uses my hyphens as a token separator. What do I do to get around this problem? Can I tell StandardAnalyzer not to break on hyphens or should I be using some other Analyzer?

I.e., if you used a tokenized field for the product names and an analyzer that breaks on the hyphens, then there are no hyphenated tokens for you to match. I would suggest using Luke to browse your index and see what you have.
