Over time, the wax gets nasty to the point that you feel compelled to replace it lest you re-introduce the contaminants in the waxing process. For the most part, four of the eight, representing greases, wax-based drip lubes, regular oils, and biodegradeable oils, were all very similar, losing about 2 watts over the hour long test.'. The production of lubricating base oils by the petroleum refining industry is an important contributor to lubricants manufacturing, helping 'grease the skids' of the global economy. To help you choose between synthetic and petroleum-based lubricants for your Falk gearbox, we compare and contrast these two options below and explain when it's best to use each variety.

Petroleum refined base oils are produced as part of the overall crude oil refining process, and undergo a sequence of processing steps. GreenMantra's catalytic depolymerization process converts recycled plastics into industrial products such as waxes, greases and lubricating oils. Some are predominantly naphthenes so yield a lubricating oil that is more sensitive to temperature changes than the paraffin-base crudes. A Canadian company has even developed a process to form micro wax and polymers into a structural material that does not require maintenance, in essence it is a wax brick.
