Additive performance
Falex Pin and Vee-Block test
Falex Pin and Vee-Block Test data (graph 1, 2 and 3) demonstrates that the BORTEC Friction Fighter allows anti-wear performance which is unmatched compaired to other anti-wear additives, such as:
- ZDDP – Zinc Dithiophosphate
- ADDP – Ashless Dithiophosphate
- ZnDTC – Zinc Dithiocarbamate
- MoDTC – Molybdenum Dithiocarbamate
- ADTC – Ashless Dithiocarbamate
- ATD – Alkyl Thiadiazole
All additives which by standard are used in many commercially available engine oils.
The Falex Pin and Vee-Block Test data in Graph 2 & 3 also shows that BORTEC Friction Fighter provides extra protection in combination with standard additives.
Graph 1:
The data shows a comparison between the anti-wear performance of BORTEC Friction Fighter and ZDDP, or Zinc Dithiophosphate, which is the most commonly used additive in commercially available engine oil. A 500 pound load was set to standard metal vee-blocks and pin. The pin was rotated at 300 rpm for one hour. A FAIL result is any test which did not make the 60 minutes mark due to excessive wear or high torque.
Graph 2:
This data compares the anti-wear performance of single additives with and without BORTEC Friction Fighter. A 500 pound load was set to standard metal vee-blocks and pin. The pin was rotated at 300 rpm for one hour. A FAIL is any test which did not make the 60 minutes mark due to excessive wear or high torque.
Graph 3:
The data shows the anti-wear performance of single additives with and without BORTEC Friction Fighter. The additive combinations at 0.70% mass outperformed the single additives at 1.0% mass treat. A 500 pound load was set to standard metal vee-blocks and pin. The pin was rotated at 300 rpm for one hour. A FAIL is any test which did not make the 60 minutes mark due to excessive wear or high torque.
