Hi! I am seeking the help of someone experienced with lubricants,
specifically hydrocarbons such as conosol and drakesol. I'm not a
chemist or an engineer, just a knowledge seeking entrepreneur, and I'm
trying my best to do research on my own and understand it, but I
thought I would throw a post out there to see if anyone could explain
it in simple english for me.

I'm basically interested in what the difference is between different
conosols; such as conosol C-145, C-270, C-200, C-215, etc etc. My
application is to lubricate metal-to-metal contact in a small piston.
Endurance is a big factor (how long before it evaporates.) If anyone
could help me understand this lubricant (or maybe find one better!) I
would be most grateful and would do _whatever_ I can to return the
favor.

Many many thanks,

Squeeky

Never even heard of it, but you might try tech support at one of the major
oil companies. They can be very helpful and will probably refer you to an
engineer who knows the subject very well. Email listserv groups are another
good source of technical expertise.
