Praises AMSOIL!

LNG
Publishing Company, Inc.
In the March 2003 issue of
Lubes 'n' Greases,
Automotive Editor David McFall wrote an
in-depth article on the subject of extended oil drain intervals and
touted AMSOIL as a safe, cost-effective and environmentally preferred
choice. He praised AMSOIL for their commitment to excellence and labeled
AMSOIL "unshackled"
for never conforming to industry norms and standards.

AMSOIL 10W-30 Motor Oil and ten
competing oils were subjected to a series of tests. AMSOIL
outperformed all the competitors in nearly every test! See the

Meets the Highest Grease Performance Standards
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases (GL Series) are lithium complex extreme pressure greases
formulated for high-speed/high-temperature applications. They meet the highest
grease performance standards* of the National Lubricating Grease Institute
(NLGI), GC for wheel bearing applications and LB for chassis applications.
AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Greases reduce friction and wear in high-speed,
high-temperature components, such as automotive wheel bearings
and electric motors. They keep components running clean and
trouble free for outstanding performance and long life.
- Lasts longer than conventional greases
- Adhesive and shear stable to prevent squeeze out
- Excellent resistance to water washout
- Excellent cold-temperature pumpability and torque values
- High dropping points (550°, 500° and 430° for NLGI #2, #1, and #0,
respetively)
*Applies only to NLGI Consistency Grades #1 and #2.

Eliminates the Need for Separate High-Temperature and Low-Temperature Greases
The combination of synthetic base oils and lithium complex
thickeners in AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases excel in high- and low-temperature ranges.
AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Greases may be used at higher temperatures than other greases,
offering outstanding protection in high-temperature operations.
They also pump easier at low temperatures, providing dependable
cold-temperature protection and good low-temperature torque
values. In fact,
AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Greases protect over such a broad operating range, they may be
used in place of separate high-temperature and low-temperature
greases.
Reduces Maintenance Costs
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases are outstanding at reducing
friction, helping systems run cooler and more efficiently than
with conventional greases. AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Greases' outstanding
oxidation resistance, which is critical in high-temperature
operations, keeps components running clean and problem-free for
outstanding performance, long life, and reduced repairs and
maintenance costs.
Prevents Metal-to-Metal Contact
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases are compounded with highly effective
extreme pressure additives that form a shield against sustained
or sudden extreme loads, protecting components from
metal-to-metal contact.
Resists Squeeze Out/Water Washout
Top-performing lithium complex thickeners in AMSOIL Synthetic
Multi-Purpose Greases provide excellent adhesion properties. AMSOIL
Multi-Purpose Greases adhere to metal
in all types of environments and resists squeeze
out during operation. These qualities ensure
maximum lubricant protection during harsh operations.
These adhesion properties also give
AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Greases outstanding resistance to water washout, as identified
by ASTM D-1264 water washout test. This resistance to water
means a protective film of lubricant stays in place to protect
equipment against wear and allow rust and corrosion inhibitors
to protect against the damaging affects of water.
Simplifies Inventories and Prevents Errors
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases are recommended for many different
applications. Their diversity simplifies lubricant inventories
and prevents greasing errors.
Extended Service Life/Long Shelf Life
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases are suitable for use up to 350°F.
(When operating at elevated temperatures, frequent regreasing
may be required.) AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Greases resist oxidation,
high-temperature degradation and additive depletion so
effectively, they may be used for longer service intervals than
conventional greases. AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Greases also
resist oil separation and offer a long shelf life.
Compatibility
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases are compatible with many other types
of greases. However, it is recommended that when changing
greases, the equipment be cleaned of the old grease when
possible or flushed with a liberal amount of the GL grease while
the mechanism is in operation. Closely monitor the system for
any inconsistencies. Any grease compatibility questions should
be referred to your AMSOIL representative or AMSOIL, Inc.
Applications
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases are recommended for use in heavy-
and light-duty applications found in manufacturing plants,
automotive applications, agricultural equipment and construction
equipment (consistency grade depends on application). These
include, but are not limited to, roller bearings, plain
bearings, thrust bearings, gears, electric motors, presses,
winches, bushings, wheel bearings, chassis lubrication,
universal joints, ball joints, tie-rod ends and steering
knuckles.
AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Greases come in NLGI #0, NLGI #1 and NLGI #2
grades. Each of these greases contain the same viscosity base
oils and additives, but contain different amounts of thickener.
-
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease NLGI #0 contains
the least thickener, making it more suitable for cold-temperature applications
-
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease NLGI #2 contains
more thickener, making it better suited for high-temperature,
high-moisture and high-speed applications
-
Because AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease
NLGI #0 and NLGI #1 are synthetic lithium complex greases,
however, they are both also excellent for use in high-temperature
applications
