Oils refined from crudes are not particularly good lubricants. Over the years, additives and complete synthetics have been developed to improve lubricity, film strength, stability, anti-corrosion and cleaner operation.

Even so, it has been demonstrated that friction co-efficients can be further enhanced by introducing surface modifiers into oils. These are traditionally polymer or metallic compounds with perceptible thickness.

Extralube ZX1 is a more elegant solution to the problems of friction wear. It is FREE ENTIRELY of congealing agents which can affect flow rates, design tolerances and the working of small active components.

The re-engineered hydrocarbon molecules in Extralube ZX1 actually synergise with ferrous and non ferrous metals on contact, forming a complex long-chain molecular bond which is extremely slippery and tenacious.

Extralube ZX1 acts as an intermediate, microscopic rubbing surface which continues to function after the oil film has broken down. It is measurably effective at extreme pressures and temperatures.

Extralube ZX1 has been formulated to avoid harmful side-effects, not only uncontrolled surface buildup but contains no solids or sediments and is compatible with metals, non-metals and all known lubricants, including synthetics when applied as directed.

How much do you need?

Fuel treatment :
Initial : 1ml / litre
Subsequent : 0.5ml / litre

eg : 90l tank : initial 90ml, subsequent 45ml

Engine Oil treatment :
2000-2400 : 225 ml
2500-3500 : 250 ml
3500-4200 : 300 ml

General lubrication : add @ 5%

(I'll add this in the club shop Wink )
