Behind The Claims · Data Talks

Every Claim Is Backed by a Test

TRIAX performance claims are backed by data from industry-standardized tests conducted across many formulations. These tests support OEM specification compliance, API licensing requirements, and product performance validation. When TRIAX recommends a product for an application, it means the formulation has been evaluated against the requirements of that application and engineered to perform in that environment.

  • Standardized Testing

    Claims are supported by industry-recognized test methods, OEM specification requirements, or API qualification standards where applicable.

  • Formulation Support

    TRIAX test data is supplemented by OEM compliance data and additive-package data from major additive manufacturers.

  • Real-World Validation

    Select TRIAX fluids are supported by field testing, equipment use, and documented operational performance data.

Core Technology

Nano-Boron Technology: The Science Behind Lower Friction

A protective super-lubricity layer engineered to reduce metal-to-metal contact.

TRIAX engine oil formulations use a Nano-Boron and Moly friction-control system designed to create a protective super-lubricity layer over metal components. This nano-scale layer helps reduce direct metal-to-metal contact in friction zones — supporting lower friction, less heat, reduced wear, smoother operation, and longer oil and component life.

Nano-scale friction modifiers achieve a state of structural super-lubricity (friction coefficient below 0.04), creating a nearly frictionless, protective lattice that shields engine metal from heat and friction, ensuring:

• Superior Engine Performance
• Up to 84% Less Engine Wear (vs OEM spec)*
• Cooler, Smoother, Quieter Operation
• 70% Less Deposits on Turbo Chargers*
• Significantly Extended Drain Intervals

*when compared with OEM specifications and API CK-4 specification qualification requirements or related specs such as VOLVO VDS 4.5.

The Chain Reaction

What Lower Friction Unlocks

When friction is reduced, the entire system benefits. TRIAX formulations are engineered to control the chain reaction caused by heat, wear, viscosity breakdown, deposits, and metal-to-metal contact.

  • Significantly Less Wear

    Reduced friction limits direct contact between moving metal components, supporting longer component life.

  • Reduced Heat

    Less friction means less heat across engines, transmissions, gears, compressors, and hydraulic systems.

  • Cleaner Operation

    Advanced formulations help reduce deposits, sludge, and varnish that compromise performance over time.

  • Viscosity Stability

    Designed to resist shear and stay in grade longer under severe operating conditions.

  • Extended Service Life

    Stronger protection, improved stability, and reduced friction support longer fluid life in select applications.

  • Smoother, Quieter Operation

    Reduced friction helps components move with less resistance, supporting smoother performance, quieter operation, and improved overall drivability.

Engine Oils

Engine Oils Built for Advanced Protection

Nano-Boron and Moly protection for friction, wear, heat, and component life. TRIAX engine oils use nano-scale friction modifiers designed to achieve structural super-lubricity with a friction coefficient below 0.04. This protective lattice helps shield engine metal from heat and friction while supporting smoother operation and extended drain intervals.

*when compared with OEM specifications and API CK-4 specification qualification requirements or related specs such as VOLVO VDS 4.5.

CVT & Transmission Fluid

Transmission Fluids Built for Smooth, Stable Shifting

Friction stability, wear protection, and shift quality engineered for long-term performance.

Transmission and CVT fluids must maintain highly controlled frictional behavior over time. When friction properties break down, drivers experience hesitation, sticking, shudder, noise, slipping, or rough shifting. TRIAX CVT fluid testing shows strong frictional stability — supporting smooth clutch engagement and consistent shifting.
