PAG or PEG

Mark:

I would have you contact a company at www.americanchemtech.com they are the original makers of PAG chemistry fluids. You could also look up the web site to get the number and call the President Kevin Kovanda. He will talk to anyone who needs help.

Huh?

What about Union Carbide in the 1930's?

Union Carbide is Dow Chemical. So where do you think American Chemical's raw material come from? You can only get the Ecosafe, Ecogear, Trident and Neptune from them.

Instead of fighting for whom was first, would you please let us know the difference between PAG and PEG. We are keen to know.

PEG is a water soluble polymer, and is not suited as a replacement for a formulated PAG lubricant. PEG's lubricant uses are in 'personal' lubricants, eye drops and other water based applications. I don't think it will work very well in a worm gear application.
