Petroleum-based oils lack both the lubrication performance
and oxidation stability of synthetics. Real oil is made up of a mixture of long
and short chains of carbon and hydrogen atoms, and under certain conditions the
short-chain molecules evaporate, and the unstable molecules oxidize and break
down. This leaves a sticky residue which can actually “gum up” the device it
was intending to lubricate. Conventional oils also contain varying amounts of
impurities, such as sulfur, waxes, and unstable hydrocarbons which are left
behind as residue deposits.
It is perfectly safe to begin using Liquid Bearings
on all your clocks and clock radios immediately,
even if you have been lubricating them with conventional oils for years or
decades. It is fully compatible with all vintage and current oils, and will
eventually flush away the residue of the evaporated real oil over time.
You will easily notice that all of your pivot points, slides, bearings,
rollers, and gears will move easier with Liquid Bearings, especially
if you have been using petroleum-based oil
on them for years.
One of the most pleasing characteristics of Liquid
Bearings is that it is engineered to be essentially odorless!! It is such a pleasure to work with your
equipment and not have everything, including your clothing and hands, smelling
of oil! Compare it to any other lubricant, petro or synthetic, and you will
prefer working with Liquid Bearings!
Where to use it:
This fully synthetic proprietary blend is suitable for
all clock uses, whether on bearings and gears, friction points of mating or
sliding metal parts, motors, pendulums, stems, bushings, or general corrosion prevention. It does
not contain any graphite or Teflon components, it will not attract or retain
dirt and contaminants like petroleum-based
oils do, and will never harm or soften any plastic or rubber
components or painted surfaces.
Please note that there is a “synthetic oil” trick which some manufacturers are playing on consumers. Recently relaxed rules in the labeling and classifying of oil products now allow up to 30% of an oil to be derived from petroleum-based products and still call itself synthetic! Don’t be fooled! Liquid Bearings contains only 100% synthetic components and no petroleum products. It is an incredible lubricant that will also immediately begin to remove the deposits left by years of petroleum lubrication!
The bottle & needle tip:
The bottle is made from LDPE and is very soft to use.
The high quality stainless steel 18-gauge dispensing needle lets you lubricate
your equipment precisely, without getting the oil on the rest of the clock. The
needle utilizes the patented Luer Lock which is used on pharmaceutical supplies
and is top quality. It has a leak-proof scabbard which covers the tip of the
needle between uses. Many other clock oils come with crude plastic nozzles or
eye-droppers which literally drool out the oil. Liquid Bearings is able
to be placed exactly where you want it every time, drop by drop!
