- Use Level
- 2.5% - 5.0% (Heavy metal-free greases), 0.8% - 1.5% (Industrial gear oils), 0.5% - 1.0% (Hydraulic fluids), 0.5% - 1.0% (Ep-turbine oils), 3.0% - 7.0% (Automotive gear oils)
- Product Uses
- NA-LUBE® ADTC is an ashless multifunctional additive that can be used as an extreme pressure, antiwear and antioxidant additive in lubricants and greases where heavy metals are not desired. Because of its chemical nature, NA-LUBE® ADTC is ideally suited for formulating antimony-free, lead-free and low ash EP greases.
- Because NA-LUBE® ADTC exhibits outstanding antiwear and antioxidant properties, it can also be used as an efficient additive for manufacturing industrial gear oils, hydraulic fluids and rust and oxidation oils.
- Combinations of NA-LUBE® ADTC with NA-LUBE® AO-130 and K-CORR®1031 will help to achieve optimum results.
- A treat level of approximately 1.0% of NA-LUBE® ADTC in an appropriate base oil will achieve more than 12 load stages on the FZG test rig.
- NA-LUBE® ADTC also exhibits good de-emulsification properties and does not negatively influence AFNOR filtration test results.
