Nano-Oil Balisong Lubricant
The lubricant Zippy himself uses after trying them all.
- Nano-oil provides a smooth handle swing with added hydraulic pressure for a better perceived bushing tune (reduced handle play), while protecting from rust and abrasion (particularly important for stainless steel washers).
- The proprietary additive in Nano-Oil are 0.090 micron Nano-Bearings (for comparison the width of a human hair is 50-100 microns).
- The Nano-Bearings are magnetically induced molecules which penetrate metals and adhere to microscopic crevices, providing a low-friction dynamic contact.
Product Description
This is the oil I use on my personal collection of balisongs and I am a proud to be offering it for sale on my website as a Nano-Oil distributor. These 8cc Nano-Oil "pen applicators" have a needle-point tip for precision application of lubricant to your balisong or folding knife pivots.
Why select 85 Weight?
This is the oil I use on my personal collection of balisong knives and trainers. After trying a variety of different oils, I favor this oil in particular for balisongs with extremely tight tunes (i.e., "no play" tunes), where thicker oils tend to slow down the swing too much, and lighter oils don't offer enough hydraulic pressure. I recommend frequent application of this oil for all pivot systems: bushings, washers, and bearing balisongs (even ceramic bearings benefit from this lubricant because the washers and cages are made of brass or steel).
Why select 10 Weight?
I use 10W Nano-Oil on every Cycloid and Parallax I ship out. If you have a Parallax, Cycloid or Cycloid HD, this is the oil that I recommend. Application frequency per your preference. This oil should also be used for any other bearing balisongs under 3 oz.
The Tech behind Nano-Oil
How long will this last?
Although these 8cc pen applicators are small, a little goes a long way. There is virtually zero waste lubricant due to the precision needle-tip. I find that one 8cc pen applicator can last over a year of routine use (and that's me lubricating every Cycloid that goes out the door in addition to my own personal collection); the true longevity of this oil offsets the higher cost per volume of this lubricant compared to its competitors.
