Established in 1984, Cost Effective Maintenance (CEM) provides cost effective methods to correct engine problems such as oil consumption, power loss, hard starting, smoke, poor fuel consumption, blow by and chronic overheating. In 2007, CEM were granted membership status with the Australian Government's Greenhouse Challenge Plus program, which requires members to commit to energy saving pursuits.

AW10 Antiwear

  • Need to delay rebuilding gearboxes, diffs, engines, etc?
  • Stiff, notchy gear shifts
  • Engine/gear rattles, diff whines?
  • Pre-trip preparation - de-stress engines, gearboxes, diffs, power steering, etc
  • Want to optimize power & performance?

We produced AW10 Antiwear to deliver massive increases in lubricant load carrying ability, wear reduction and friction (& heat) reduction. Cut internal friction, and you minimize component stresses...so things last much longer.

ENGINES

Did you know that up to 25% of the horsepower an engine produces is lost due to internal friction? This means that a 225HP engine actually produces 300HP in the combustion chamber, but loses 75HP before it reaches the flywheel. Then you lose more to driveline friction before it reaches the rear wheels.

The powerful antiwear/anti-friction performance of AW10 Antiwear reduces frictional HP losses to produce measurable HP gains. Dynamometer results showed a 6% HP increase in a V6 Commodore, and a 13% gain in a high km Navara diesel.

The load carrying boost reduces engine rattles and noises, and allows engines to rev more freely and smoothly. Hydraulic valve lifter noises disappear with AW10 Antiwear. If the engine is sludgy, also use Flushing Oil Concentrate.

Small 2 Stroke engines receive a spectacular benefit from AW10 Antiwear. These high revving engines create a lot of internal friction. AW10 Antiwear cuts that friction and turns it into horsepower!

Transmissions, Diffs, Final Drives

Manual gearshifts become much smoother, reducing notchiness, rattles, bearing whine, etc. Cooler running results from keeping mating surfaces separated by a powerful oil film. Suitable for all manual gearboxes, transfer cases, final drives. Especially recommended for Caterpillar D9 final drives. AW10 Antiwear is not suitable for wet clutches, some limited slip diffs, and high km automatic transmissions.

Hydraulics

AW10 Antiwear is excellent for hydraulic applications, especially hardworking excavators, bobcats, etc where operating temperature and wear will be reduced. Power steering squeal is reduced, extending service life.

Anti Rust Protection

AW10 Antiwear also provides an extremely powerful anti rust action. This makes it ideal for 4x4s, especially where creek crossings are encountered. Put it right through the running gear, and don't forget the winch! Weaker or worn limited slip diffs may lose some capability due to the friction reduction.

Directions for Use

Just add to oil at these rates...
  • Engine Oil 2% (20mL per Quart, incl. 2 stroke oil...that's just 200mL AW10 Antiwear for 10 Quarts oil)
  • Manual Transmissions 5% (50mL per Quart, incl diffs & final drives...that's 500mL for 10 Quarts oil)
  • Automatic Transmissions 1% (10mL per Quart...that's 100mL AW10 Antiwear per 10 Quarts oil)
  • Hydraulics 1% (Earthmoving, power steering, tractor, industrial, etc...That's 100mL for every 10 Quarts oil)

Here’s what a couple of our customers say about AW10 Antiwear...

13Freightliner FLC112. (Riseley’s Bulk Haulage). Powered by Series 60 Detroit with 18 speed Roadranger and Eaton diffs. Use of AW10 Antiwear resulted in smoother gear shifts esp when cold. No click on fast changes. A slight engine rattle has also disappeared. Temperature reductions going up the Toowoomba range were 25F for the gearbox, 15F front diff and 20F rear diff!! Owner Phil Riseley was so impressed, he had to ring us at the top of the range!

Speed Roadranger Overdrive Gearbox. Marr's Haulage run 5 road trains, and tried AW10 Antiwear instead of a $3000 repair job in one gearbox that had become very notchy. Gear shifting and operation immediately became smooth. Four (4) years later, and the gearbox is still in service. Use of AW10 Antiwear in one of their engines resulted in a noticeable increase in oil pressure.

Warwick Armstrong from the Australian Governments Greenhouse Challenge Plus evaluated AW10 Antiwear in this vehicle with 300,000 kms accumulated, to investigate means of reducing Greenhouse Gas emissions. Over 15 tanks of LPG, he consistently showed an improvement of 5-6% in efficiency.
