  4. We offer special lubricants and coatings for a very wide variety of applications on vehicles and in production line maintenance Our group customers include:

  5. Automotive Lubricants & Coatings

  6. Speciality greases The basics…greases are made up of a base oil, a thickener & additives. We have a full range of high efficiency, performance greases based on mineral & fully synthetic base oils used by many automotive manufacturers and suppliers Standard & special greases with different thickeners from lithium, calcium, barium complex, aluminium complex, sodium and many others for various applications Additives are included to enhance performance and to address the application parameters. For example where a lubricant is needed to prevent corrosion, assist with extreme pressure/loads, extreme temperatures and high speeds or where water resistance or anti wear are issues.

  7. Composition of Greases ADDITIVES (0 – 10%) THICKENER + (3 – 20%) BASE OIL +(70 – 95%) GREASE = 100 % More Common Less Common

  8. Some grease application examples • Seating – mechanisms, controls, cables and noise reduction. Plastic compatible greases – low/high temperature • Door and sunroof systems – Handles, window regulators/mechanisms, actuators, pivots… • Switches – electrical contact greases and mechanical applications • Underbonnet – fan bearings, alternator bearings, EGR valves – high temperatures, durability

  9. Vehicle Refinement Eliminating trim squeaks and rattles on any type of interior trim component and compatible with all substrate materials, plastics, rubber, metals, leather etc. We also have anti friction coatings and lubricants for use as a slip coat for door and window seals, sunroofs & weather-strips to reduce friction, wear and very importantly noise and judder.

  10. Assembly Aids Our products are used as assembly aids on :- • Coolant Hoses • Window seals & weather-strips • Fuel hoses • O rings, gaskets & other seals • Air conditioning systems • Plastic clips • Bushings • Complete range of fluids, gels & dry film lubricants to aid component assembly and decrease assembly effort & process time, they are compatible with most materials used.

  11. Production Line Maintenance Synthetic lubricants which can be used to extend component life, reduce downtime and unscheduled maintenance in:- • Paint oven conveyors • Trolley wheels • High temp’ conveyor chains • E-Coat line – bath/washer chains

  12. Dry Film Lubricants These products are:- • Water or solvent based, dry film coatings • Based on PTFE, Graphite, MoS2, Boron Nitrite or other solid lubricants and a binder • A thin film of a low friction ‘paint’ or coating • Ideal for ‘B’ surface interfaces • Require ‘drying time’ or curing • The most commonly known dry film lubricants are Molybdenum Disulfide (MoS2 or Moly), PTFE, and Graphite however there are many others.

  13. Application Examples

  14. Application Examples – Window Regulator Application Requirements • “China Desert Sand “ Test • Min & Maxi Temperature requirements (-40 to + 90°C) • Lifetime – durability tests • Water resistance tests • Materials compatibility (plastics, metals..) • Noise elimination Lubrication Points Application Description • Window lift regulators • Window regulator guide mechanisms • Cable to drive wheels

  15. Application Examples – Window Regulator Product • PAO based grease with good low temp torque and compatibility with plastics Lubrication Points Problem • Ratio of Cost to Technical Perfomance were main criteria to meet demands of major Automotive OEM’s • Guarantee to supply continuity of special of Customer packaging needs for future

  16. Application Examples – Dynamic Seals Application Requirements • Decrease of friction coefficient • Dry product • Compatible with seals FPM /ACM (VITON/ Rubber Polyacrylic). • Water Based • The lubricant has to be maintained even with the handling before the assembly. • The lubricant should not trap dust. Application Description • Dry lubrication (interior and exterior) of a dynamic seal, with a low coefficient of friction.

  17. Application Examples – Dynamic Seals Product • Dry film coating Lubrication Points Problem • The customer wanted a water based product. • The lubricant has to be efficient, no migrating, and compatible with rubbers

  18. Application Examples – Automotive Seating Problem • The customer required durable solution to various noise & friction related quality issues. • Compatibility with all materials including plastics, rubber & leather and a wide operating temperature range (-40◦C to 120◦C) Product • PFPE oil (on leather trim) • PAO/Lithium grease (on headrest inserts) • Low temp PAO/Lithium greasse (on headrest inserts) • PFPE oil (on headrest stems) Lubrication Points

  19. Application Examples – Starter Switch Application Description • Used on three slides on a starter switch. Application Requirements • 300 000 cycles • 28 000 cycles at. 40 °C • 75 000 cycles at 85 °C • Compatibility with ABS casing • Compatible with POM runner • Compatibility with silicone membrane • Compatibility with polycarbonate button membrane (non visible)

  20. Application Examples – Starter Switch Problem • The customer needed a product which would be compatible with multiple materials in particular polycarbonate. • Product endurance • To reduce noise and the force required to depress the button (reduced from 8.5N to 6N). Product • PAO/Lithium Low temp grease

  21. Application Examples – Electrical Controls Application Description • Lubrication of electrical controls with varying operational requirements such as on/ off contacts, signal amplification and push activation/ deactivation. • Electric window locks & adjusters • Side mirror regulators Application Requirements • 50 000 cycles

  22. Application Examples – Electrical Controls Problem • The customer needed a product which would facilitate 50000 operations. • Be compatible with multiple plastics including in particular polycarbonate. • Wide operational temperature range (minimum -40◦C to +85 ◦C • Inhibition of oxidation to copper Product • PAO/Lithium (polycarbonate compatible) • Ester/Lithium (where polycarbonate absent)

  23. Mako-Lube Support • Unrivalled Range of specialist Lubricants & coatings • Top Quality European Manufactured • Local Stocks and Technical Support • Multi-Language product labels • In House Training available • New Product Development • Dynamic, Solutions lead partner
