Ametech METAL-TEC10 Metal Conditioner & Anti-friction Oil Additive. Ametech Metal-Tec 10™ is an advanced technology metal treatment that protects metal surfaces against extreme pressure, friction related heat and high-wear conditions. Add to any oil or grease . For engines, gearboxes, differentials, power steering and many, many other applications. Add 5% Metal-Tec10 to each litre of lubricating oil in the system.
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY, ANTI-FRICTION LUBRICANT ADDITIVE
Ametech Metal-Tec10™ is an advanced technology, anti-friction lubricant additive, consisting of a blend of the highest quality petrochemical products. It is a maximum duty, metal conditioning formula especially recommended for use in lubrication systems where there is a special concern for extra protection due to extreme pressure, friction-related heat and high-wear conditions.
Metal-Tec10 flattens metal surfaces to increase lubrication and reduce drag (friction). There are many other oil additives on the market that act in a similar way but, unlike the others, Metal-Tec10 contains no chlorinated solvents or phosphate compounds and is PH neutral, protecting the metal surfaces against acid erosion which occurs when short-chain chlorinated hydrocarbons mix with water droplets and moisture to form hydrochloric acid.
Metal-Tec10 contains no PTFE, silicone, graphite, moly or solid lubricants and is neither acidic nor alkaline, just pure petrochemical halide blending. Metal-Tec10’s formula allows it to blend well with all types of petroleum and most synthetic lubricants (but not vegetable oils or esters), enhancing the performance of both.
Ametech Metal-Tec10™ Metal Treatment is recommended for these automotive applications:
- Engines. Nothing protects better at start-up!
- Transmissions (Automatic & Standard)
- Power Steering/Rack Assembly Units
- Differentials
- Recommended for gasoline & diesel engines
ENGINES
Advantages
- Smooths, seals & protects metal surfaces of bearings, pistons, cam, crankshaft, lifters & all other internal, moving metal parts
- Protects engine against friction-related heat & wear
- Free governors and eliminates governor hang-ups
- Reduces operating temperatures
- Increases horsepower
- Extends the life of lubricated engine parts
- Reduces oil consumption
- Recommended for petrol & diesel engines.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS AND MANUAL GEARBOXES
One of the biggest enemies of a transmission is heat. The amount of heat present in the system will normally dictate the lifetime of that transmission. When Ametech Metal-Tec10 is added, heat is significantly reduced. Metal-Tec10 addresses the extreme-pressure (EP) areas, such as planetary and worm gear systems, along with bushings, bearings and shafts.
VALVE BODY OPERATION: In many cases presented by professional transmission builders, Metal-Tec10 has freed the valve body and maximized performance with no recurrence of sticking or intermittent hang-ups.
GOVERNORS: As most transmission builders are aware, there are certain governor systems that have unique tendencies to hang up for no apparent reason. Two reasons these hang-ups occur are contaminants and microscopic spiking of the metal due to electrolytic corrosion of the metal. Ametech Metal-Tec10 will displace contaminants and smooth and seal metal surfaces, removing electrolytic spikes and preventing their formation.
Advantages
- Reduces heat
- Frees valve bodies for maximum performance
- Free governors and eliminates governor hang-ups
- Keeps oil passageways, orifices and ball checks clean and fully operational
- Extends the service life of the transmission
- Eliminate premature failure and costly call-backs
- Reduces wear & metal particle fallout & debris
- Removes varnish buildup
- Eliminates lock-up chatter in the torque converter
- Insures proper shift
- Does not affect seals & gaskets
- No negative affect on sprag or clutch friction*
- Recommended for automatic & standard transmissions
- Contains no PTFE, graphite, silicone or moly.
IMPORTANT: Metal-Tec10 should not be used in CVT gearboxes. CVT (Constant Variable Transmission) oil or fluid improves the friction/grip between rubber/metallic belts and alloy/composite pulleys, whereas Metal-Tec10 reduces friction between metal-on-metal components, spool valves & spindles lubricated by ATF (automatic transmission fluid) in automatic transmissions. As these requirements are opposed, neither ATF nor Metal-Tec10 should be used in CVT rubber/metal belt transmissions.
