Part #: M-10012
Made In USA. Melling engine assembly lube, MELL-LUBE, is formulated to be an initial lubricant on camshaft metal surfaces as well as related valve train parts. The added zinc material (1400 ppm) provides MELL-LUBE with added protection to prevent scoring and galling during initial engine start-up for both newly rebuilt and / or remanufactured engines. In addition, MELL-LUBE contains corrosion inhibitors to prevent rust and pitting of components. MELL-LUBE mixes with any engine oil and will not clog filters. Melling recommends MELL-LUBE be a part of every camshaft install.
Features:
- Superior Wear Protection - Formulated with extreme pressure additives to protect engine components from metal-to-metal contact during initial startup
- High Tackiness - Stays in place during assembly and storage, ensuring consistent lubrication exactly where it's needed
- Broad Compatibility - Safe for use with all engine components including camshafts, lifters, bearings, and valve train parts
- Easy Startup Support - Reduces friction and prevents dry starts by providing instant lubrication during first engine fire-up
