QMI PTFE Treatment Concept

QMI protects metal-to-metal friction surfaces with fused PTFE treatment, like “wet ice on wet ice,” a substitute wear surface that reduces friction, wear and heat while increasing energy efficiency and prolonging life and trouble-free operation.

• After application, the lubrication system carries QMI to lubricated friction surfaces.
• QMI SX-6000 metal preparation chemistry’s surfactants reduce surface tension of gums and varnish on friction surfaces, preparing the friction surfaces for PTFE treatment.
• QMI’s SX-6000 bonding agents work with mechanical action to fuse micro-thin PTFE treatment onto friction surface high points.

Now friction components glide by each other on long-lasting PTFE protection, reducing wear as much as 30 to 90%.

Safe, effective protection

As a manufacturer committed to advanced PTFE treatment technology, QMI provides PTFE that suspend easily in carrier oils and pass readily through standard filters. Many
years of product development efforts produced SX-6000, a metal preparation, blending, suspension and bonding formula exclusive to QMI, with specialized PTFE especially
chosen for higher tensile strength and stiffness, greater fracture resistance and improved flex life strength and life.

Also, QMI treatment utilizes chemically inert PTFE, does not contain chlorine or other potentially harmful components, does not compromise host oil characteristics or component critical tolerances. QMI’s SX-6000 formula is Sequence IIIE tested safe and effective, and meets manufacturers’ warranty requirements.

Applications

Hydraulic pumps and motors.

Directions

1. Drain enough oil from hydraulic system to allow addition of the recommended amount of QMI Hydraulic Treatment. (See Usage Ratio* below.) If oil is dirty or due for replacement, drain and refill with new oil less amount of QMI.
2. Shake well, and add QMI Hydraulic Treatment while system is operating, or start system immediately to assure proper blending.

*Usage ratio: 1 part QMI Hydraulic Treatment to 15 parts oil.

(This is a metal treatment, not an oil treatment. Therefore, ratio may vary with extremes in reserve oil capacity.)
