We perform lubricants testing by military specification MIL-PRF-87100, which covers a lubricating oil used in aircraft turbine engines and power equipment. This lubricating oil is intended for use in specific models of aircraft turbine engines and power equipment requiring a polyphenyl ether base oil with a high temperature capability of +300ºC (572ºF). This oil is not suitable for use below +15ºC (+59ºF) without proper dilution.

The following is a list of the tests required by Specification MIL-PRF-87100A. Some of these tests are customized for this exact specification. Alcor Petrolab and Phoenix Chemical Laboratory specialize in unusual and custom testing, and our testing capabilities are continuing to expand; contact one of our laboratories today to discuss the exact testing you need.
