Tri Flow Dry Teflon Lubrication Kit

Postby coolsteel » Tue Jan 28, 2020 5:07 pm

Can anyone suggest where I can purchase a Tri Flow Dry Teflon Lubrication kit with a needle type applicator. I would also like to hear from anyone who has used this on their steel and whether there was any noticeable improvement after the application. I know it is available in cans on Amazon and Ebay and I have read some of the reports on the USA Steel Forum but wondered if anyone closer to home had tried it.

Richard, I use these,

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GT85-PTFE-LU ... kOsUkV97CA

GT85 is similar to Tri-Flo at a third of the price, I got rid of the oil that was in the duratool and replaced it with GT85, the can has a tube so you can easily fill the duratool, you can buy GT85 at most cycle shops. Hope this helps.

I have used it for years.

Doesn’t attract dust and use a tiny drop on moving parts when i change strings only.

Here is me swimming against the tide again, like David I lube at every string change and just use a light grade oil (like sewing machine oil) I don't mind a bit of dust down there, I rub some oil into the changer where the strings go over and some on the roller nut making sure the rollers all turn as I do it, put some kitchen roll on the floor at the business end and dab the mech underneath with it when I'm finished after about 40 years the mech on my old Emmons is still slicker than cat shit. :)
