Castrol Brayco® 300 is a blend of highly refined petroleum oil with suitable additives which provide corrosion prevention, oxidation resistance, and freedom from galvanic corrosion in brass-steel bimetallic systems. The viscosity is similar to a light machine oil. Castrol Brayco® 300 is a water displacing oil for general purpose applications at low and medium temperatures (-70ºF to 300ºF). Uses Castrol Brayco® 300 is designed for the lubrication and preservation of small arms, automatic weapons, and fuse mechanism applications, especially where a low temperature, water displacing oil is desired. It may be used to protect unpainted metal surfaces from the effects of indoor storage for periods of three to six months, after which it remains readily removable. Castrol Brayco® 300 will also protect magnesium and aluminum against corrosion at low and medium temperatures (-70ºF to 300ºF). | TEST METHOD | DESCRIPTION | MIL-PRF-32033 REQUIREMENTS | RESULT | | D287 | API Gravity, degrees | Report | 28.4 | | Table 3 | Specific Gravity @ 16°C/16°C (60°F/60°F) | Report | 0.8849 | | Table 8 | Pounds Per Gallon @ 16°C (60°F) | Report | 7.368 | | D1500 | Color, ASTM | 7.0 Maximum | 4.0 | | D97 | Pour Point, °C (°F) | -57 (-70) Maximum | -57 (-70) | | D445 | Viscosity, cSt

This gives details of potential hazards, precautions and First Aid measures, together with environmental effects and disposal of used products. castrol will not accept liability if the product is used other than in the manner or with the precautions or for the purpose (s) specified. Before using the product other than directed, please contact Castrol for consultation. Applications Castrol Brayco® 300 may be applied by brush, dip, swab, spray, or squirt can. Depending on the method of application and surface geometries, Castrol Brayco® 300 will cover 1,000 to 3,000 square feet per gallon. For water displacement, it may be applied by these same methods. Displaced water should be removed from dip tanks at suitable intervals. |
