Triflow Maintenence Lubricant |
|
Just thought of mentioning this spray lube to the forum.
We used it extensivly in the past on the gearbox racing karts and then again on the supermoto bikes, both at British Championship levels.
Ok, this next refference may not be so good Rover would only authorise this spray for lubricating their door locks.
Anyway, it really is the dogs and it was available through Brammer (ex BSL), as well as other outlets.

So where else could it be used? Is it the same as the spray grease they leave in the door pocket after service? Bodsys Brake Bible

No, it's not as heavy, viscose as spray grease. It is a penetrating spray, that leaves a teflon coating behind. I have also used it on eletric window runners, any open unshielded bearings, hinges, basically anything that slides, glides, rolls, turns etc.
I think the last time i bought it, it was around £15 for a 500ml can. It is one of these sprays that a little drop, goes a long way. ATB

....they specialise in industrial lubricants |
|
in industrial lubricants...& have sold direct as well as through third party vendors such as Brammer
the big claim is that the lubricants put a coat of Teflon onto the bearing surfaces & this saves on energy & wear etc
If you add the cost to th normal lube it works out quite costly & to gauge the results (over time) & machine condition can be quite subjective + there are many other specialist makers for problem or specialist areas (e.g. Kluber)
The spray mentioned is a step beyond the WD40 clones - useful but not that essential.
We stopped using it where I work as they persisted in pyramid selling methods (you had to buy a box instead of a few cans & it isn't low cost BREXIT - done properly.
Right now ...We need Government - not Politics
