The Super Lubrication System
A. The Product
Developed as a special treatment in the offshore drilling industry, the Mechanical Treatment System (MTS) can be used in engines, gearboxes and fuel.
MTS is NOT an oil additive. It works in a completely different way, producing tangible results which can be summarised under three different headings: Fuel Saving; Resistance to Wear; and Lower Emissions.
1. Fuel Saving
i. Between 5 and 10% depending on the condition of the engine it is being added to.
ii. Tested in the fishing industry, MTS returned an average saving of 8.5% on diesel used.
iii. Tested in road vehicles it has returned up to extra 5 miles per gallon. The treatment can be used in petrol or diesel engines.
iv. Tested in MAN V12 Diesel engine a saving of 8g/Kwh when added to standard lubrication oil.
2. Resistance to Wear – Increase in Performance
i. Service life of the engine will increase.
ii. Noticeably smoother engine operation and correspondingly quieter noise emission
iii. Within drilling rig operation it has been shown to extend the life of the equipment it was applied to by up to six times. This was also applicable to the packing glands and drill string.
iv. Reduces the friction within diesel engines on cold start-up.
iv. MTS grease stops wear on the packing glands, bearings etc so highly relevant for electric engines. Use in all harsh environments to prevent salt water ingress and provide superior lubrication. Ideal for:
High-speed, high-pressure applications
Oilfield – Bearings, Sliders, Swivel Packing, Couplings. Rack and Pinion
Winch Gears
Wheel Bearings
Drive Shafts
CV Joints
And anywhere that grease is required
Please Note that there is obviously a balance between Fuel Saving and Increased Performance. Under the same load, fuel use will be improved; under a proportionately greater load, fuel use will be the same.
3. Lower Emissions:
i. CO2 emissions are reduced when added to fuel.
ii. Build-up of carbon deposits is minimised within the combustion chambers, within the cylinders and around the valves.
B. Testing
MTS has been tested by the most rigorous testing procedures using standard industrial tests. These tests are the benchmark of friction and wear lubrication performance worldwide. They range from the Falex Test, Four Ball Test, Timken Test and a variety of others. Performed by: The Atomic Energy Authority, the National Centre of Tribology, Inchape Testing Services and Caleb Bret.
According to our data the product is classified as not hazardous according to regulation (EC) 1272/2008
(GHS).
C. General
i. MTS in liquid, spray and grease (see D below) forms have a NATO manufacturing code and stock number.
ii. MTS is manufactured to ISO 2002
iii. MTS does not contain particulates such as Teflon or P.T.F.E. Molybdenum or Zinc Dialkyldithiophosphate, all common causes of blocked filters and airways. It has a toxicity level somewhere between milk and garden soil (although we wouldn’t advocate drinking it) and it is not copper corrosive.
D. MTS Grease
The mechanical treatment is also available as the only high-performance, Lithium Complex-based grease reinforced with MTS, having a shear strength to cater for peak loads well beyond the scope of other greases. It is designed to work at extreme temperatures and pressures in all harsh environments (eg. mud, water, steam, acids and alkalis), high-speed and/or high-pressure applications (Oilfield, Marine, Industrial, Agricultural, Aeronautical, Automotive) for all bearings, slides and screws, swivel packings, rack and pinions etc.
Summarised as follows:
i. Provides extreme pressure lubricity
ii. Protects all bearings and machinery.
iii. Virtually eliminates friction and wear.
iv. Lubricates and protects beyond the melt point of conventional greases.
v. Prevents salt water ingress.
vi. Resists harsh chemicals and acids.
vii. Prolongs component & lubricant life.
viii. Extends maintenance intervals.
ix. Reduces downtime and service costs.
