Tube-O-Lube Dry Graphite Lubricant



Tube-O-Lube graphite is a high carbon graphite that gives superior performance on the track. After extensive testing against other brands of graphite, we chose Tube-O-Lube as the top brand.
Application
Apply Tube-O-Lube as follows:
- Insert a wheel onto an axle.
- Hold the axle with the wheel hanging towards the ground.
- Deposit some lube into the gap between the axle and wheel hub.
- Tap the wheel gently to help move the lube down into the wheel hub.
- With one hand, firmly grasp the axle and hold the axle horizontal to the ground.
- With the other hand, spin the tire firmly, but not so much as to drop the wheel/axle.
- Repeat step 6, nine more times.
After performing this procedure the first time, keep the wheel/axle pairs together as a unit.
Follow the above procedure three times before considering lubrication complete. As a measurement of completeness, by the end of this procedure the free spin time of a wheel should be twenty seconds or more for a standard BSA wheel.
Test Results
The chart below shows the result of racing one car with two different sets of wheels on a 35 foot track. One set of the wheels was lubricated with Hob-E-Lube, while the other set was lubricated with Tube-O-Lube. All other factors were the same. Each set of wheels was mounted on the car and raced twenty times. This experiment was repeated with essentially the same results.
