100% water
soluble when

flush the
line, saving
both
time
and
water. |
|
Will not
transfer
taste and
odor when
used on
potable
water mains. |
Does not
cause a
"greasy"
taste in the
water like
many
oleate-based
lubricants
resulting in
fewer
customer
complaints. |
|
Blue Lube
has no odor. |
Oleate-based
lubricants
will oxidize
when exposed
to the
environment
and release
foul odors.
Blue Lube
will not
leave the
end user
smelling
like grease. |
|
Non-reactive

chlorinated
water. |
Oleate
lubricants
will react
with
chlorine to
produce
aldehydes,
increasing
the taste
and odor
problems. |

degrees
Fahrenheit. |
Will not
become runny

thawed. |
