Ultra Low Density High Competition Slot Oil

The Tectime lubricant that makes a difference on track

When every thousandth counts, the lubricant you choose stops being an accessory and becomes a performance variable. The Tectime Ultra Low Density High Competition Oil (ref. TT0342) has been designed to minimise internal resistance of moving components, a critical factor in any slot setup where top speed and motor response are priorities.

Main features

• Ultra low density: Its extra-fluid formulation reduces viscosity to the minimum necessary for lubrication without generating noticeable resistance to rotation.
• Pentrating effect: Reaches the tightest spaces of bearings and bushings without play, ensuring uniform coverage without lubricant buildup.
• No drag effect: Unlike higher density oils, it does not "brake" the natural movement of the axle, which directly translates into more top speed.
• Anti-corrosion protection: Forms a protective film over metal surfaces, preventing oxidation on exposed components.
• Pentrating action on mechanisms: Also useful for freeing screws or stuck parts without damaging adjacent surfaces.

Recommended applications

This oil is designed for any slot preparer or driver looking to reduce friction at critical points of the running gear and motor group:

• Rear and front axles: A minimal amount on the axle supports eliminates resistance without dirtying it or attracting dirt.
• Bearings and bushings: Especially recommended for play-free bushings where a thick oil would create significant drag.
• Motor assembly: Precisely applied to the motor bushings, it helps to unleash the actual RPM of the power unit.
• Preventive maintenance: Protects metal parts in the workshop between competition sessions.

Behaviour and performance

In competitive slot preparation, one of the most common mistakes is lubricating with general-use oils that, while providing adequate protection, add a viscous resistance that penalises performance. Tectime's ultra low density oil is formulated to operate at the opposite end of the spectrum: it protects just enough and moves the maximum. The result is noticeable in both acceleration response and straight-line speed.

Its extra-fluid consistency also facilitates dosing: a drop in the right place is sufficient, avoiding excess lubricant that can contaminate the track or tyres.

Usage recommendations

• Always apply in small amounts: excess does not improve lubrication and can be counterproductive.
• Use a fine-tipped applicator for greater precision on bearings and axle supports.
• After application, manually rotate the axle to distribute the oil evenly before putting the car on track.
• Renew lubrication periodically, especially after long competition sessions.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between this oil and a standard density one?

A standard density oil offers a thicker and more durable film, suitable for parts that bear greater loads or operate at lower speeds. Tectime's ultra low density oil is optimised for parts that rotate at very high speeds with reduced loads, such as the axles and bearings of a slot car, where the priority is to minimise viscous drag.

Is it compatible with bronze bushings and ball bearings?

Yes. Its formulation is suitable for both sintered bronze bushings (play-free) and ball bearings, which are the two most common types in competitive slot setups.

Can I also use it on the motor?

It can be applied to the motor axle bushings to reduce internal friction. Do so with extreme caution and in minimal amounts to avoid the lubricant reaching the collector or magnets.

How often should I lubricate?

It depends on the intensity of use. In regular competition, checking lubrication every few sessions is a good practice. In recreational use, lubricating at each general setup is sufficient.

Does this oil also protect against corrosion?

Yes. It forms a protective film over metal surfaces that helps prevent oxidation, especially useful for components that are not frequently used or are stored for extended periods.
