Oil Additive suits industrial and off-highway applications.

Press Release Summary:




LuBoron(TM), with Boron CLS Bond® friction-reducing technology, requires only one use to reduce varnish and gum build-up on synchros and gears and to inhibit wear. Treatment reduces backlash tooth drag in differentials, allowing more horsepower to wheels. It forms low-friction, hard surface, impervious to most contaminants, and is compatible with synthetic and mineral-based lubricants. Applications include manual transmissions, transaxles, and final drives.



Original Press Release:



LuBoron(TM) Gear Oil Treatment Now Available for a Range of Industrial and Off-Highway Applications



For manual transmissions, transaxles and final drives

Charlottesville, VA - LuBoron(TM) Gear Oil Treatment, designed for use in all manual transmissions, transaxles and final drives, features patented boron-based advanced friction-reducing technology developed by Argonne National Laboratories, registered and trademarked under the name "Boron CLS Bond®". An additive that requires only a one-time application, LuBoron Gear Oil Treatment provides high temperature stability, reduces varnish and gum buildup on synchros and gears, and inhibits wear. As a result, gearbox life is extended and performance is significantly enhanced.

LuBoron Gear Oil Treatment is a benchmark paradigm shift in lubrication technology; it forms a near-diamond hard micro-layer of protection on bearings and gear surface parts, with strong covalent and ionic bonds to metal surfaces, providing a long-lasting, low-friction surface impervious to most contaminants. LuBoron Gear Oil Treatment helps reduce backlash tooth drag in differentials, allowing more horsepower to the wheels; its improved viscosity properties reduce loss of power caused by churning of the gear lubricant.

LuBoron Gear Oil Treatment is compatible with all synthetic or mineral based lubricants designed for manual transmissions, transaxles and final drives. LuBoron products are unconditionally guaranteed by LuBoron, LLC. For a review of test results relating to LuBoron Gear Oil Treatment and other LuBoron products, log on to www.luboron.com.

Here are some of the many benefits that LuBoron Gear Oil Treatment delivers:

o Reduces drive train power loss
o Lowers operating temperatures and prolongs fluid life
o Maintains lower friction on bearings and gears
o Reduces rolling and sliding friction in the gears
o Reduces friction between the bearing rolling elements and their separators
o Improves shifting in manual transmissions
o Improves heat transfers from the fluid to the gear case wall and out of the gearbox
o Enhances stability of the gear oil
o Prevents welding and scoring on gears with high-wiping stresses, in particular hypoid gears and highly loaded spur gears
o Reduces tooth drag
o Absorbs shock loans
o Minimizes oxidation and varnish deposits
o Requires only a one-time application
o Increases equipment uptime
o Extends gear fluid changes
o Inhibits corrosion
o Suppresses gear-lube foaming
o Reduces maintenance expenses
o Lowers repair/warranty expenses

"Unlike Teflon® or mineral oil based products, LuBoron gear oil treatment actually forms a chemical bond with metal parts in gears and rolling elements. The chemistry of Boron CLS Bond® used in LuBoron Gear Oil Treatment actively reacts with the sliding metal parts in manual transmissions, manual transaxles and final drives, creating an extremely smooth surface that reduces friction where metal meets metal," said Albert Randolph, President and Founder of LuBoron, LLC.

"We are confident that LuBoron products such as our gear oil treatment will become an integral part in heavy duty manufacturing of industrial and off-highway equipment and the aftermarket. If lubrication of equipment is necessary, tests prove LuBoron makes lubrication better by serving as a metal treatment as much as a lubricant enhancer," Randolph said.
