Brav? Bray Oil Company. You know, the company that developed Brayco® Micronic 882, the new 445°F flashpoint hydraulic fluid for the space shuttle that doubled the life of the system's components. We also discovered the first practical means of producing large-scale quantities of DHDECMP—a chemical that separates the most dangerous isotopes from nuclear waste material and greatly simplifies disposal problems. We developed the super-clean hydraulic fluid for missile guidance... and created the first propellant- and oxidizercompatible high temperature grease for the Apollo flights... and pioneered the manufacture of calcium sulfonate detergents... and — We're not exactly famous. Still don't know who we are? Actually, we're not surprised. Unless you're directly involved with military or aerospace oils and lubricants you've probably never heard of us. And if you have, you probably think of us as a strictly MIL-spec outfit.
Not so. We are uniquely qualified for meeting tough MIL specs. But we're also deeply involved in industrial applications. Like the manufacture of PAOLs® (polyalphaolefins) for formulating synthetic motor oils, lubricants, and greases, Wide selection, continuous availability We offer the most complete selection of PAOLs you can get. And our modernized plant guarantees continuous availability. We can manufacture special viscosity grades to your specifications. Or custom blend. Or toll process, If you'd like to know more about the potential benefits of PAOLs, jot down our name—and then give us a call. Bray Oil Company, Inc. 9550 Flair Drive El Monte, CA 91731 (213) 575-1212
