Bio-Penetrating Lubricant™
A specially formulated, ultimately biodegradable1 penetrant that can be used as a light lubricant. Because of the super high viscosity index of the HOBS, this product performs in many applications. BPL™’s patented composition of additives and base fluids provides a protective, thin film lubricant. This natural oily film has shown in laboratory and field tests to outperform petroleum base oils in terms of natural lubricity.
BPL™ is formulated to penetrate into close tolerant areas, then lubricate, and prevent corrosion. BPL™’s ability to creep is demonstrated by placing a 3/8” x 2” bolt on its head with ¼” of BPL in the bottom of a lab beaker; BPL™ creeps vertically up the threads. It protects deep into the core of a cable or chain link and is excellent as a light air tool lubricant and preservative oil for parts. BPL™ contains no VOCs, displaces moisture, and provides a high dielectric (47 kV ASTM D-877) insulating property in electrical equipment. BPL™ has exceptional benefits over petroleum oils in these applications because there is direct danger of polluting the water, soil, or work environment through loss of the petroleum lubricant.
