What is Maxi Lube?
MAXILUBE is an EP (extreme pressure) antifriction metal treatment that may be added to all types of machinery lubricants. Maxilube reduces friction and virtually eliminates wear. Elimination of wear means reduced maintenance and extends the life of your equipment.
What lubricant works best?
Best Overall: Aloe Cadabra Natural Personal Lube.
Is Grease same as lubricant?
Greases are higher viscosity, semi-solid materials, with thickeners to hold the grease in place which allows for long term, harsh-condition lubrication. Liquid lubricants do not typically contain thickening materials like greases, allowing them to be a less viscous, flow-able liquid.
What is the use of lubricant name one lubricant?
A lubricant is a substance that helps to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact, which ultimately reduces the heat generated when the surfaces move. It may also have the function of transmitting forces, transporting foreign particles, or heating or cooling the surfaces.
Can you use Vaseline as lube for bearings?
Vaseline: you can use vaseline for all sorts of applications. It is a great lubricant for metal parts such as the air installation, but it is also regularly used for installing PVC parts. Note: contrary to ball bearer grease, vaseline does become liquid at higher temperatures (40 – 60°C), causing it to drip.
What can I use instead of 00 grease?
It looks like the popular substitutes are Stens, Rotary, Alco and Oregon.
Why is PTFE a good lubricant?
It keeps tools and machinery working smoothly, and improves the life of everything from garden implements to car parts. PTFE means our lubricant is non-stick, and can work in most temperatures and on a variety of materials.
What is Dry PTFE lubricant?
DRY PTFE Spray is a non-toxic, non-staining dry PTFE lubricant, ideal for use in environments where wet lubricants cannot be tolerated, e.g. dusty environments such as paper mills and bakeries. DRY PTFE Spray can be applied to pivots, links, pin and pulleys to prevent wear and extend component life.
How does maxilube help with friction and wear?
So MAXILUBE solves the problems of friction and wear by treating the metal itself. Metal parts treated with MAXILUBE are smoother and much more resistant to heat and wear. More importantly, the friction characteristic of the metal itself has been reduced by more than 70%! This allows lubricants to do their jobs better and last longer.
How much maxilube to use per quart of oil?
Uses for MAXILUBE include… In oils lighter than 80W, use 1-1/2 to 2 oz. per quart. In oils and lubes 80W and heavier, use 2 oz. per quart. In hydraulic fluids, use 1/2 to 1 oz. per quart. Mix 1 oz. into each tube or pound of grease.
How long does a maxilube car engine last?
Early introduction of MAXILUBE into several classes of high-performance race cars quickly demonstrated that treated engines could win races and last more than three times as long as engines without MAXILUBE. Provable cost-effective benefits have paid off for many loyal MAXILUBE customers, some with use histories going back more than 20 years.
