The presence of a service-proven oxidation inhibiting additive system results in a high resistance to oxida- tive degradation of the oil. It is available in SAE viscosity grade 30 and 40.

The TARO DP Series are highly alkaline (30 TBN) oils specifically designed to lubricate medium- speed, trunk-type engines that uti- lize fuel with a sulfur content in excess of 1.8 percent. Blended from carefully refined base oils fortified with a specially developed additive package, TARO DP series has pro- vided excellent laboratory and field test results. This API~ CD level product, although primarily recom- mended as a crankcase lubricant, is also perfectly satisfactory as a cylin- der lubricant in medium-speed en- gines with separate cylinder lubrica- tion. It is highly resistant to oxida- tion degradation, and affords excel- lent anti-wear activity. Its TBN re- tention properties give excellent anti-corrosion protection over long periods of operations. The TARO

DP detergent and dispersant addi- tives help protect against deposition of high-temperature carbon and low-temperature sludge, thus pro- moting good overhaul life. It is available in SAE 30 and 40 viscosity grades.

Texaco's Ursa Oil Extra Duty Se- ries are premium API CC, MIL-L- 2104B quality level lubricants.

Blended from highly refined paraf- finic solvent neutral oils and a se- lected additive package, this prod- uct series provides the required de- gree of anti-wear protection and helps minimize excessive deposit formation. The carefully balanced anti-oxidant additive system pro- vides a product with a proven high degree of oxidation and corrosion resistance. It is available in SAE 30 and 40 viscosity grades. |

A> '

T / v ,

Stronger than bronze. More forgiving than Nibral:

Tougher, yet kinder to your shaft, coupling, transmission.

Perform Better:

Won't flex under heavy load. Deliver full thrust when you really need it.

Last Longer:

Tremendously resistant to tip wear, edge damage, surface erosion.

Easier to repair:

Because CF-3 stainless reconditions and welds easily.

These stainless Columbians could be the last props you ever have to buy for your boat. And at a price surprisingly near Nibral.
