• PROVIDES ANTI-WEAR PROTECTION
• OUTSTANDING OXIDATION STABILITY
• PROLONGS POWER TAKE-OFF LIFE
• SUPPRESSES BRAKE CHATTER
• PROTECTS AGAINST RUST
• RESISTS FOAMING

Formulated, not only using a superb anti-wear additive system, it uses the additive in much higher quantities than is necessary to pass equipment manufacturers test. In hydraulic and torque conversion systems bearings, pumps, valves, spindles, etc. are given superior protection due to an extra enrichment with unsurpassed anti-wear additives. 

Gear tests conducted, using the UNIVERSAL TORQUE FLUID additive system, show no pitting what-so-ever - - less gear wear means an extended drive train life.

Today's equipment places more stress on lubricants than ever before. Equipment is larger, engine power is up, more hydraulic systems are in use - - all contributing to increased temperatures in the operating systems. As temperatures go up, the oils are subject to more rapid oxidation.

It contains powerful anti-oxidant chemistry, plus new generation base stocks are used to greatly resist oxidation. In addition, much higher levels of anti-oxidation inhibitors are used than is necessary to pass equipment manufacturers test.

Power Take Offs (PTO's) very often fail to have their clutch plates lock up quick enough to prevent a great deal of slippage. Slippage causes clutch plates to burn up and results in loss of power transmission. There is a performance lock up test called the Stall Test that allows up to 3 seconds before lock up. Texas Refinery Corp.'s UNIVERSAL TORQUE FLUID passes this test with a lock up time of less than 1 second. This fast lock up time reduces clutch wear and prolongs PTO life. Texas Refinery Corp. uses a great deal more of the superior additives to protect PTO's than is necessary to pass equipment manufacturers test.

Brake chatter (a high pitched squeal) can mean greater difficulty in  braking and will finally end in premature failure. Texas Refinery Corp.'s UNIVERSAL TORQUE FLUID suppress brake chatter and does so in a manner that does not rob the brakes of their needed capacity. It passes the Brake Safety Test, while many other lubricants exceed the maximum stopping distance by as much as 20 percent. Texas Refinery Corp. uses much more anti-chatter additive for brakes than is necessary to pass the equipment manufacturers test.

During equipment operation, the fluid is heated, causing it to expand and push out the air that blankets the fluid in the reservoir. Once the equipment is shut down, the fluid cools, pulling in air. When this air is pulled in, so is moisture, forming condensation. This moisture will cause a rusting problem if no protection is provided. It contains a rust inhibitor to provide that added protection against harmful rusting. Texas Refinery Corp. uses much more anti-rust additive than is necessary to pass equipment manufacturers test.

As mentioned, in hydraulic and torque converting systems, some moisture is present. This contamination, coupled with the increased flow rates in systems, can cause foaming. Texas Refinery Corp. faces the problem head on by incorporating excellent foam inhibitors in UNIVERSAL TORQUE FLUID. When the foam is kept to a minimum, operation will not be hampered and equipment life will be extended. Texas Refinery Corp. uses much more anti-foam chemistry than is necessary to pass equipment manufacturers test.
