Proprietary Additives

LE’s proprietary additives are used exclusively in LE lubricants. Monolec® Natural Gas Engine Oil contains Monolec.

Monolec® wear-reducing additive creates a single molecular lubricating f ilm on metal surfaces, vastly increasing oil film strength without affecting clearances. An invaluable component in LE’s engine oils, industrial oils and many of its other lubricants, Monolec allows opposing surfaces to slide by one another, greatly reducing friction, heat and wear.
