Schaeffer teamed up with Ranken Technical College to find out how a customer's million miles Ford 5.4L gasoline engine looks after running exclusively on Schaeffer Oil.
The experts were shocked to see the condition of this workhorse. Even the engine's main bearings still had the manufacturer's original numbers inked on them.
Pat Hunke owns Hunkes Transfer, Inc. They are a contract carrier for auto parts stores. Since using Schaeffer products, they have little to no engine problems and no problems with cold weather start up. He is impressed with the longevity of the oil – up to 50,000 miles per truck using Schaeffer’s Oil Analysis.
Even though the maintenance crew at Loveland Product was using a high-end lubricant in their equipment, the gearboxes were still running too hot for operating conditions. The maintenance crew used thermal imaging to test Schaeffer’s Gear Lube ISO 460 against the lubricant they were using. Results showed the gearbox ran 30° cooler with Schaeffer’s.
SynForce Green Grease was put to the test in the chopper bearing of a Case combines to see how it could handle temperatures. After running for a few days, thermal imaging showed a 20 degree drop in bearing temperature compared to the bearing serviced with a leading grease.
