TruProducts
Tru Products are designed for cleaning, lubricating, and protecting the metal of outdoor gear based on 100% synthetic oils engineered to bond to metal and create a lasting barrier of protection and lubrication for hunting and fishing equipment. Tru Products do not separate from metal in the presence of moisture, debris, or extreme high and low temperatures. Field and laboratory testing performed over the years prove Tru Products outlast traditional oils and lubricants every time.
They minimize maintenance time and expense, reduce equipment failures, and decrease replacement costs. Tru Products Tru Recoil is Tru Product’s line of multipurpose, synthetic lubricants for firearms tested in temperatures over 350 degrees and under -65 degrees. Tru- Recoil’s strong molecular structure resists oxidation, evaporation, and chemical changes, unlike oil-based products that begin to decompose upon exposure to air. This prevents a sludge-like residue sometimes seen with petroleum products.
Available in four or two ounce bottles and in Gun Oil (wet) and Dry Wipes. In addition to lubrication and surface protection, Tru Products carries a line of multcaliber cleaning kits (Portable Tactical, Multi Caliber Pistol, and Gun Care/Range Bag) with pull-through cables intended for field use. Tru Product’s blend of additives penetrate the surface protected, push impurities to the surface, and leave a barrier of protection against oxidation, rust, and wear from friction.
In addition to firearm protection, Tru Products also offers Tru Cast for fishing gear used in fresh and salt water fishing, Tru Cycle for bikes and motorcycles, Tru Draw for archery, Tru Reed for Water Fowl field use, and Tru EZE as their industrial-strength all purpose home, farm, and auto oil. Tru Products also maintains a line of industrial products for manufacturing, welding, machining, and other uses. Contact or TruProducts.com for more information.
