Description:

SLA 2010 is a concentrated dispersion of PTFE and Boron Nitride in a highly refined petroleum oil. Compared to ordinary PTFE or Boron Nitride dispersions alone, SLA 2010 provides a new dimension in durable boundary lubrication. It is an exceptionally stable dispersion that is straw yellow in color which makes SLA 2010 desirable for applications where use of other dark colored solid lubricants would be objectionable.

SLA 2010 utilizes patented technology to “ceramically” reinforce” the PTFE, thereby, significantly increasing its durability and application range. This translates to improved extreme pressure, load carrying and anti-wear properties of lubricants. Benefits to the user would include energy savings, smoother operation, extended life, and reduced maintenance costs of the object being lubricated. The “reinforced” PTFE prevents surface-to-surface contact and scuffing while providing reliable low-friction lubrication under boundary conditions.

Method of Use:	Dilution SLA 2010 can be blended with most commercially available oils. SLA 2010 is compatible with most oil additive treatments. When blending large quantities, the oil should be heated to about 50°-55°C (122°- 131°F) since blending is more efficient when oil viscosities are reduced. Stir SLA 2010 thoroughly to achieve a uniform consistency; then premix equal parts of SLA 2010 and the oil diluent before blending with the balance of the oil. Maintain continuous agitation by mechanical stirring throughout the blending operation. Note: A small amount of soft settling of the larger particles may occur during long periods of storage. Mild agitation will restore these particles back into suspension. Application For best results, use SLA 2010 at one percent PTFE/BN solids by weight in the finished oil, or approximately five-seven percent by weight of SLA 2010. Final concentration of SLA 2010 may be determined by the level of performance desired.
Companion Products:	SLA 2020, a colloidal dispersion of PTFE/ Boron Nitride (CERFLON*) in isopropyl alcohol. SLA 2030, a colloidal dispersion of PTFE/ Boron Nitride (CERFLON*) in water.
