Loading... Please wait...We are pleased to present 10-8 Performance Lube, a product that sets a new standard in small arms lubricants. The lube is a colloidal suspension of re-micronized molybdenum particles, functional from -100 to +1,000 Degrees F. The .3 micron (that’s .0000118”) moly particles will not settle out of solution so you do not have to worry about shaking the bottle before you use it. The formulation will not evaporate in normal ambient air temperatures. Over months of exhaustive testing, we found that the lube consistently outlasted commonly available oils and greases, providing a significantly longer service cycle between lubrication. It was common to run 5-600 rounds in a match fit 1911 without experiencing any sluggishness. M4 carbines and modern service pistols easily go in excess of 1000 rounds without relubrication. When the liquid carrier ultimately burns off, the moly particles remain behind and stay hard at work. Even when the gun appears to have become dry, the action still feels slick thanks to the embedded moly. The particles continue to ooze out of the pores of the metal, making a relatively small application of the lube go a long way. On M16 platform weapons, the lube has noticeably reduced the deposition of carbon on the bolt carrier group.
The lubricant is simply applied onto parts after routine cleaning. No special degreasing, surface preparation or post-application treatment is necessary. Simply apply sparingly on all moving parts. On M16 family weapon systems, we have found that a more generous application (similar in volume to traditional oils) provides improved reduction of carbon buildup. It can also be applied inside the barrel as a bore/chamber treatment and light preservative (*remember to run a dry patch through the bore after treatment, before firing). Mixing the lube with traditional oils or greases is not necessary or recommended. The lubricant is easy to clean up, and does not leave buildup or residue.
The 3ml bottle is sufficient to lubricate at least 10 pistols or 5 carbines, and conveniently fits into your M4‘s Tango Down vertical foregrip or pistol grip for field maintenance. The 25ml size is good for department armorers and range staff, as it will generously lubricate a very large number of weapons.

This lube works very well on my 1911 & Beretta.
A drop goes a long way. It doesn't run,and if applied in the proper amount won't weep.Great
value for the money.

I have a small battle of this lubricant, AQ little goes a long way on a 1911. The oil stay where you put it and does not run all over the place. It is a great product and is not messy. If the gun gets warm you do no see the oil weeping.
