CUSTOMER TESTS & RESULTS

They started using the Petron Plus Hi-Temp Lithium Com-
plex Grease several years ago to lubricate the antenna ped-
estal for our long range radar which must operate 24 hours
per day, 7 days per week. Since using this grease we have
experienced less wear, and reduced friction significantly.
We used to overhaul the pedestal every 5 years, but it looks
like we will be able to extend this from 8 to 10 years now. It
enabled us to reduce the frequency of greasing buy 75%.

They have used both the Petron Plus Lithium Complex and
Polyurea Grease to lubricate several 10 to 20 gallon per
minute liquid circulating pumps which are used in the cool-
ant system of the radar. These have always been a very
maintenance intensive item. Since switching to these
greases we decreased our repair requirements on them ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
