Marine Fuels, Lubricants & Additives manufacturer of diesel fuel addi- tives, including: • BioborR JF, a concentrated liquid fuel additive, used to eliminate Hy- drocarbon Utilizing Microorgan- isms (HUM) or HUM-Bugs, in all hydrocarbon fuels such as aviation jet fuels, kerosene, No. 1 and No. 2 diesel fuels, home heating oil, ma- rine diesel and bunker "C" fuels.

Hammonds also offers the HUM-

Bug Detector11 Kit, designed to pro- vide early detection of HUM-Bugs. • LubriBorR Hi-Tech Lubricity

Agent is designed to improve fuel lubricity characteristics and reduce fuel system wear. Compatible with other fuel additives and approved for U.S. and British military use,

LubriBor contains a component that provides corrosion protection in low- sulfur diesel. • Select3R Diesel Fuel Conditioner is a low-dosage stabilizer and corro- sion inhibitor for cracked and straight run distillate fuels. Its chemistry allows for top fuel effi- ciency, as well as upper cylinder performance. Hammonds claims this diesel fuel additive has antioxi- dant properties that provide maxi- mum sludge control and good color stability, while reducing or elimi- nating the peroxide formation that can also occur in the low-sulfur diesel fuel processing. • ColdFloR Improver is a non-alco- holic de-icing agent that permits fuel to flow at even the lowest tem- peratures. Specifically, ColdFlo die- sel fuel additive was designed to improve the negative effects of the diesel industry's refining process, which reduces the sulfur content in on-road diesel fuel.

Mobil Oil, with its EAL Arctic

Series, is addressing the needs of the rapidly changing refrigeration in- dustry where there is critical de- mand for lubricants that are com- patible with CFC, HCFC and HFC refrigerants.

Mobil's EAL Arctic Series is re- portedly the first synthetic lubri- cant commercially available for HFC- 134A refrigerant.

Mobil brings 50 years' experience with synthetic lubricants to the EAL

Arctic Series. The products are for- mulated, developed, manufactured, packaged and distributed through

Mobil's fully integrated operation.

Petro-Morine Company

Petro-Marine Company, Inc. has developed a new, portable, closed sampling system for the petroleum and marine industries. This system makes it possible to obtain samples through vapor control valves under inert gas pressure.

The PetroView™ closed sampling system addresses the concern of the new environmental laws, which re- strict or prohibit emissions of hy- dro-carbon vapors into the atmo- sphere while sampling tanks. It is designed to be used aboard marine vessels or shore tanks that are fitted with MMC or hermetic vapor con- trol valves for restricted gauging.

With this system it is now pos- sible to take samples through vapor control valves as recommended by the American Petroleum Institute.

It can obtain running samples, all level samples, spot samples, zone samples, water bottom samples, and, in the future, RVP samples.

Alert to the special requirements of marine customers, Shell Oil Com- pany constantly evaluates new prod- ucts against the needs of mariners and the tests and specifications of marine equipment builders.

Shell CaprinusR UE Multigrade 20W-40 is a multigrade oil for me- dium speed diesels designed to im- prove fuel and oil economy while reducing engine wear - important characteristics to consider when try- ing to improve the economical op- eration of a vessel.

TF Purifiner, Inc.

Circle 85 on Reader Service Card

TF Purifiner, Inc. offers the TF

Purifiner oil filtration and evapora- tion system that attaches to any internal combustion engine or hy- draulic system and keeps the oil as good as replacement oil. The oil passes through the long-strand un- bleached cotton filter at a low flow rate.

This removes particles down to one micron in size and absorbs acid and sulfur.

Then the heated refining cham- ber drives off all harmful fuels, wa- ter and antifreeze.

Proper viscosity is maintained and additives remain intact.

The TF Purifiner has a 10-year warranty.

Fluoramics

TufoilR is a patented marine en- gine treatment utilizing micro-par- ticles of PTFE (polytetrafluoroeth- ylene) and MOLY (soluble molybde- num disulfide), used because of their friction-reducing properties, to pro- vide reportedly smoother, cooler- running marine engines and im- proved component life.

Rr filtration, protection, and endurance, nothing holds up better in rough water than Luber-finer. Every filter is factory-tested to ensure the highest performance under Luber^finer pressure. And with one of the broadest application lines, it doesn't matter what your boat is.. .if it floats, we make a filter to fit it. Luber-finer. Filters made to tough it out.
