Schaeffer Oils

Take a look at the MSDS for Penetro from Schaeffer. Antimony Dithiocarbamate, and Teflon in a petroleum based oil. Schaeffer oils contain Penetro, and Micron Moly according to their labelling, and web information. I like Schaeffer, I'm using Schaeffer. Should I be worried about the presence of Teflon in the oil, a known solid that has proven to be of no benefit? Or am I jumping to conclusions? Could there be other oils that contain Teflon without our knowledge (besides the obvious old formulation of Slick 50)? It's not something tested for on UOA... would it show up in particle counts?

penetro in that form for that product may be different than the penetro used in the oils. I highly doubt they put teflon in oils.

And the penetro products used as penetrating oil, lubes, etc. may well have benefit from teflon, as it is a good metal on metal lube.

Schaeffer's Penetro 90 does NOT have the same chemical composition as Penetro in our oils.
If penetro had adverse effects in Schaeffer's oil we would have known about them long ago.
No worries.

At least Schaeffers doesn't have "liquid ball bearings". Talk about clogging passages etc.
