Description
Castrol Brayco™ 785 is a petroleum-based preservative and break-in oil that can be used to protect gas turbines
during shipping, storage, and prolonged shut-down periods.
Application
Brayco 785 was developed with the cooperation of a major manufacturer of gas turbine engines. While this
product may also be used as a break-in oil, it is not meant for regular service as a gas turbine lubricant, and
should be drained out and replaced by a manufacturer approved product when the engine is placed back on line.
By using Brayco 785 in the test cell on new and overhauled engines, all that is necessary for internal preservation
is to remove the test instrumentation (lines, etc.). Additionally, fogging a MIL-PRF-23411 / MIL-PRF-81309 fluid
into the inlet on cold-crank will prepare the engine for shipping. A treated engine is typically preserved for at least
two years.
