CLEAR-TUBE GREASE GUN
The UltraView clear-tube grease guns have a clear barrel to allow for proper identification of the grease type inside, helping to prevent cross-contamination. The guns are
equipped with a high-tolerance aluminum headcap, a heavy-duty follower spring and
large rolled threads for quick and clean reloading. The clear tubes are sold separately
in seven colors. The different colors can coordinate with various pieces of equipment
to help ensure the proper grease is used on the correct equipment.

OIL SAMPLING SYSTEM
The Simplified Oil Sampling (SOS)
system allows technicians
to collect a lubricating oil
sample on internal combustion engines without
the need to run the engine
just prior to sampling. The
system, which is plumbed
into the machinery's oil circulation system, consists of a
housing head with removable
reservoir. The head is designed
to deliver a flow of oil to the reservoir in a manner to sufficiently
disperse all contaminants in
the reservoir so the remaining
sample is representative of the
oil within the machinery.

BIODEGRADABLE COATINGS
Cortec's EcoLine 3220 and 3690 are bio-based, biodegradable
coatings developed to replace oil-based rust preventatives.
EcoLine 3220 is a canola-oil-based coating that provides a temporary film that clings to metal surfaces, while EcoLine 3690
contains canola oil as a carrier and offers open-air corrosion
protection. Both products are designed for extended temporary protection of multi-metals and can be easily removed using
a bio-based surface cleaner/degreaser. As a green replacement
for mineral oils, they provide corrosion protection while being
environmentally safe and non-hazardous.

OIL SAMPLING KIT
The Transformer Oil Sampling Kit can be used
for performing dissolved gas in oil analysis and
breakdown voltage tests. Each kit consists of
a glass syringe, nylon stopcock, Tygon tubing
with connector and padded carrying cases. The
syringes, which are available in capacities from 1
to 100 milliliters, are designed for drawing samples of oil used in transformers and testing for
properties such as moisture, dielectric strength,
etc., in order to monitor the quality of the oil
and the condition of the equipment.
