| Texas Refinery Corp.'s DEXRON®
III - MERCON® is a superior quality automatic transmission fluid
made from excellent base oils. In addition, it undergoes careful manufacturing
with a group of excellent quality additives. This product provides an extra
margin of safety and protection for various types of automatic transmissions. |

Base Oils
The base oils used in DEXRON®
III - MERCON® have gone through several refining steps. First
of all, there is the solvent extraction process that removes undesirable
characteristics from the fluid. This will prevent sludge, gum, and varnish
under heated conditions. The base stock then goes through the hydro-treating
process which improves the oil's resistance to oxidation, as well as improving
the oil's response to the superior quality additives used by Texas Refinery
Corp. Finally the oils go through a dewaxing process making them suitable
for cold temperatures. Because of their excellent resistance to oxidation
and the beefed up additive package, extended drain intervals are often
realized.

MERCON®Superior
Quality Additives
Texas Refinery Corp.'s DEXRON®
III - MERCON® is additive treated with anti-wear, anti-leak,
anti-foam, as well as being inhibited against rust, corrosion, and oxidation.
It also contains a sheer stable viscosity index improver, a detergent dispersant
package, and a pour depressant. In addition, the formula contains special
friction modifiers. All of these superior quality additives work together
to provide the finest in protection and service.

MERCON®Long
Life
DEXRON® III
- MERCON® is made with the finest anti-oxidation additives to
retard sludge at elevated temperatures. Oxidation quickly kills many transmission
fluids but this product provides long life.
Texas Refinery Corp.'s DEXRON®
III - MERCON® has the ability to resist oxidation at temperatures
exceeding 325° F. The product does not contribute to varnish or sludge
on critical transmission components such as valve bodies, oil screens,
governors or valves. This means the most severe operating conditions still
receive desired shift characteristics because the fluid doesn't break down.

MERCON®Protects
Seals and Other Parts
Three of the top quality additives used
in the formulation of DEXRON® III - MERCON®
are pour depressants, friction modifiers, and viscosity index improvers.
The pour depressants alter the wax (found in all paraffin-based oils) and
prevent the crystal wax growth, which could retard cold weather performance.
As a result, the product flows at incredibly cold temperatures.
The friction modifier has been added
for smooth positive shifts and compatibility with clutch-plate materials.
Extra care has been taken to ensure compatibility with various automatic
transmission components, such as plastic parts and elastomeric seals.
The viscosity index improvers used are
extremely sheer stable. This, in addition to the highly refined base oils
and the other superior additives, make this product top quality.

MERCON®Extra
Wide Operating Temperature Range
DEXRON® III
- MERCON® has a variety of industrial uses. The very
low pour point of -60° F. makes this an excellent cold weather hydraulic
fluid. Industrial customers use the product year round in hydraulic systems
because it handles temperature extremes of heat and cold very well.
DEXRON III®
MERCON®Versatile
In addition to being a very good all-weather
hydraulic fluid, DEXRON® III - MERCON® has
other uses. Industrial customers have found this product works well as
a cold weather gear lubricant for those gear cases not requiring extreme
pressure characteristics. In fact, this product has been used to lubricate
all types of things in cold weather such as: chains and cables, bearings,
compressors, spindles, shafts and journals as well as other general plant
lubrication requirements.
Texas Refinery Corp.'s DEXRON®
III - MERCON® is a multifunctional fluid for automatic and power-shift
transmissions as well as industrial and mobile hydraulic systems. It is
recommended for use as a fluid in automatic transmissions requiring General
Motors DEXRON® III; Allison (C-4 12220390);
Ford MERCON®, Ford M2C138CJ, M2C166H;
as well as Caterpillar TO-2. It is also recommended for Sperry Vickers
M-2950-S, I-286-S Denison HF-O, HF-1, HF-2, and Sunstrand hydraulic pump
systems. |
