Assembly Lubricants for OEM Parts
Lubricity will be maintained for extended periods of time allowing tier suppliers to coat parts before shipping to OEMs for assembly. Pre-coated parts will arrive ready for easy assembly. These lubricants may also be applied immediately before assembly occurs.
Many Busama® products carry OEM specifications with automotive and aerospace manufacturers around the world. Purchasers must use caution when sourcing Busama® products for OEM specifications. Busama® products are proprietary, non-commodity formulations only available from McGee Industries and trusted distributors.
