Pre-Lube Circle 38 on Reader Service Card Originally developed for the U.S. Navy, the Pre-Lube line of preser- vatives and lubricants are now in use throughout the world. From high speed gears and clutches to towing hawsers and standing rig- ging, through stationary equipment, the Pre-Lube line offers unique pro- tection and lubrication. Pre-Lube products will not evapo- rate or wash away. Exclusive polymers bond lubri- cants and rust inhibitors to any surface to form a non-tacky, trans- parent film that will not crack or run-off. Pre-Lube 6 contains a special rust-inhibiting polymer in a pen- etrating oil base. On metal surfaces of all kinds, it will penetrate, re- move moisture and provide a lubri- cating film against corrosion. Pre-Lube 19 is a transparent, medium viscosity, biodegradable, lubricating polymer. It is a non-hazardous, non-pol- luting, non-sheening lubricating protectant designed for wire rope in the marine environment. It pen- etrates wire rope to provide inner strand lubricity, corrosion protec- tion and prevent core rot. An excellent replacement for syn- thetic or petroleum coatings, Pre- Lube 19 protects all metal surfaces against corrosive atmospheres and will not crack at extreme cold tem- peratures or run-offat extreme high temperatures. Pre-Lube 14 is a high viscosity preservative and lubricant designed for stationary equipment. An excel- lent replacement for asphaltic type and heavy petroleum coatings, its polymer action dries tack-free and provides visual inspection. Shell Oil Company Circle 83 on Reader Service Card Caprinus U Oil 40 is Shell's pre- mium quality, zinc-free, single grade marine engine oil. Formulated with a proven addi- tive system containing a unique Shell detergent, the oil provides excellent engine cleanliness, is capable of ex- tended oil drain intervals and has superior Total Base Number (TBN) retention in service. Shell's additive system and the Shell detergent have enabled Caprinus U Oil 40 to meet increas- ing field performance requirements without reformulation. Caprinus U Oil 40 contains Shell's MVT base oil, which produces a soft flaky carbon when burned in en- gines. Soft carbon is particularly advan- tageous in two-stroke cycle engines having ports in the cylinder liners, as soft carbon is more easily dis- lodged and will not build up (espe- cially in the liner ports) and reduce the engine's power output. Shell Caprinus U Oil 40 is recom- mended for medium speed two-stroke and four-stroke diesel engines. Be- cause of its excellent API CD perfor- mance, Caprinus U Oil 40 can be used in other diesel engines, such as those powering auxiliary engines on board marine vessels and the main engines of smaller vessels. Texaco Circle 39 on Reader Service Card Texaco's worldwide association of blending plants manufacture the company's line of marine lubricants, starting with Taro Special, a SAE 50 high alkaline reserve (70 TBN) pre- mium quality cylinder oil for large, slow-speed diesel burning residual fuels. Taro Special offers excellent wear protection for cylinder liners and piston rings. Doro AR 30 is an SAE 30 moder- ate alkaline reserve (6 TBN) pre- mium crankcase lubricant for large, slow-speed engines, which meets the anti-wear requirements of engines equipped with a PTO unit. Texaco offers Taro XD 30 and 40 oils with a TBN of 15, used in me- dium-speed engines with a maxi- mum sulfur content of up to 1.8 percent. For higher sulfur levels, Taro DP 30 and 40 with 32 TBN levels, along with Taro XL 40 with a 40 TBN, are also available for use in medium- speed engines. Texaco's marine cylinder, crank- case and trunk piston oils meet the requirements of all major engine manufacturers. Texaco's full product lubricant slate composed of synthetics, spe- cialty oils and greases are available for all your other lubricant needs. Auramarine Offers New, Slimmer Fuel Oil Supply Unit Auramarine, the Finnish "Fuel Oil Booster" specialist, has created a new, slimmer Fuel Oil Supply Unit, where the installation space re- quired is reportedly halved. The basic fuel oil supply unit en- sures a constant pressure, cleanli- ness, correct infection temperature and viscosity of the heavy fuel oil before it is fed into the engine. AMB-S is a standard range of units to meet most diesel engine designs. The makers only need to know the engine make and type, existing heating media, fuel type used, voltage used onboard and the classificaiton society applicable. The components of the slimmer booster still remain as accessible as in the other units of the ABM stan- dard range. The slim-line construc- tion allows installation in corners and other close quarters. Service of the compact unit is easy - all the items are at hand and logically laid out. Also, installation is simple - all the necessary piping connections are on both the front and the rear of the unit. New technical prospects are opened by the PC-based program- mable logic control system added to the ABM boosters. The system en- ables many different controls and alarms to be installed and set, de- pending on the individual needs. These could be alarms for replace- ment intervals for wearing parts, single-button start-up feature, or duplicate controls of Econometer system for measuring consumption per nautical mile of kWh. Due to the modulation of the boosters, Auramarine now can offer the customers even shorter delivery times. The ABM fuel oil supply units are suitable for various applications both in marine use and in power stations on land. The design and construc- tion of Auramarine Engineering's boosters are based on long and ex- tensive experience. The company was established in 1974, and is now reportedly the biggest booster manu- facturer in Europe, having the best know-how in the field.
