Welcome to TechLines... October 2005From Chuck of Hydro DynamicsBenton, LAChuck has been using our coatings for years. His company is well known for it’s building of 2 stroke marine engines running Nitrous. Chuck tells us ‘This Stuff Works”, referring to CBC2. He knows that he has saved engines by using CBC2, and highly recommends it.
From Dan of Component CoatingsSaginaw, MIDan, like Chuck of Hydro Dynamics, has been using Tech Line products and highly recommends our coatings. He told us this month that opening a coating shop applying our coatings was the “best Business move of my life”. He has found that the market for coatings has continued to grow and his income is substantially higher than it was in his previous line of work. If you are considering either opening a coating facility or adding the service to your current business, the above comments can give you an idea of what can be expected NEW PRODUCTIndustrial LubricantCeroxi-Film™Historically the addition of Self-Lubricating Solids such as Graphite, Moly (MoS²) and Tungsten Disulfide (WS²) is well documented. These materials have been utilized to reduce wear at temperatures and pressures at temperatures above 600F, where EHD fluid lubricants will not satisfactorily lubricate due to thermo-chemical instabilities inherent in these synthetic fluid compositions. What has been needed was a lubrication system that would lubricate at temperatures from below -100F to above 3000F. In addition the resultant film should ideally reduce oxidation of the bearing material when exposed to temperatures above 700F, substantially increasing the component life. The Solution is the CerOxi-Film™ System CerOxi 2240 deposits a self lubricating film, developed primarily for the lubrication of sliding and rolling journal bearings, which when heated behaves as a liquid, but returns to a thin-film solid at temperatures below 700F. The first application deposits a 10 micron film on both bearing surfaces (.0005” per surface) during use. After the second application an additional 10 micron is applied and after a third application an additional 10 micron is applied creating a total combined film formation of 30 microns. The film buildup is controlled chemically, not by the amount of grease applied. Temperature, both frictional and environmental, is the key to the film formation. Three applications are typically required. CerOxi 2340 is used for re-lubrication after the initial film formation is accomplished. The re-lubrication cycles and frequency intervals will become less, as the new wear surfaces self-lubricate themselves, with accompanying reduction in wear of the bearing surfaces. Frictional temperatures and bearing surface temperatures, either through work piece heat conduction or environmental operating temperatures will act as the catalyst to initiate the lubricating film formation process. The lubricating film formation will effectively reduce galling from sub-zero temperature to temperatures in excess of 3000F. CerOxi formulations are available for specific temperature ranges. From Don at Replika MaschinenOne of Don’s Motorcycle Road Racer customer had his pipe and collector coated with HHBK and Turbo X Black by Don. The customer improved 3 seconds per lap at Button Willow, CA and 2 seconds at Sears Point/Infion in CA. NO changes in gearing, fuel, air or of any other nature except for coating the parts and a slight carb adjustment due to the effect of the coating. This was an engine that has been in use for 1 year prior to the coating, so there is a lot of experience on this engine. YOU Can Run With The BEST OR Run With The Rest™
