LUBE-A-BOOM®
Friction Reducing Lubricants
LUBE-A-BOOM® reduces friction. It is a specially formulated synthetic lubricant containing TEFLON®* particles held in suspension which lasts longer and outperforms conventional petroleum based greases. LUBE-A-BOOM® exceeds most manufacturer's specifications for petroleum based grease.
Because LUBE-A-BOOM® is synthetic it is an exceptionally pure lubricant since it contains none of the impurities that are inherent in petroleum based lubricants.
TEFLON®* provides the lowest coefficient of friction of additives available. TEFLON®* particles in LUBE-A-BOOM® fill surface irregularities providing a smoother, flatter surface for wear pad-to-boom contact resulting in a smoother operating boom.
LUBE-A-PIN™ GREASE
LUBE-A-PIN™ is a NLGI #2 synthetic grease fortified with 5% molybdenum disulfide (moly) as well as other additives for pins/bushings and bearings that handles shock loads and resists water wash out. It is a heavy duty all purpose grease for all types of construction and industrial equipment including wet and dirty environments such as off-road and mining applications. It is environmentally friendly since it contains no antimony, lead, chlorine, zinc or other heavy metals.
Applications
A lower coefficient of friction results in a smoother extension and retraction of the boom sections and smoother operation at lower boom angles. LUBE-A-BOOM® Friction Reducing Lubricants can be used for cranes, aerial lifts, hydraulic tele-boom excavators, tele-handlers, and forklifts (masts).
Protection
LUBE-A-BOOM® goes further and stays on longer providing better protection of boom sections. Wear pad life is extended by improved lubricity and requires less frequency of greasing, resulting in savings in both lubricant and labor.
Did you know
LUBE-A-BOOM® provides excellent lubrication for pins, bushings and bearings and it comes in pails, kegs and drums? It provides superior load carrying properties compared to lithium type greases.
Testimonials
"When Bosco's Cranes' 65 ton Tadano All Terrain Crane boom was not sequencing, they called Flaherty Equipment Repair, Inc. Upon examining the boom, Mike Flaherty found that BOSCO CRANE had the wrong type of lubricant on the boom. The lube they were using was too sticky for proper functioning. The boom was cleaned and LUBE-A-BOOM® was applied. There have been no further problems with this boom. "

From Our President
While working for a major crane and aerial lift manufacturer for many years and with crane/aerial lift dealers we ran into situations where customers complained about jerky or erratic booms. The industry needed a product that was slicker, stayed on and lasted longer. No off-the-shelf product for telescoping booms was available which had the additives I wanted. This led me to work with a major chemical company to provide this product. I'm sure you will find LUBE-A-BOOM® superior to anything else on the market.
Sincerely -- Harley Wilson
