SEMA 2008: JIG-A-LOO USA, INC. CONTINUES GROWTH EXPANSION
WITH INTRODUCTION OF GRAPHITE EXTREME
Las Vegas, NV (November 4, 2008) – Following the successful 2007 debut of Jig-A-Loo to the U.S. market, paired with the recent introduction of the company’s highly popular Jig-A-Patch wall repair kit, Jig-A-Loo USA, Inc. (www.jigaloo.com) is showcasing its newest product application called Graphite Extreme at the 2008 Specialty Equipment Market Association’s (SEMA) annual automotive expo. Graphite Extreme is a high performance graphite-based lubricant “geared” for the greater automotive community.
“Graphite Extreme is just one of the new products Jig-A-Loo USA will be bringing to the U.S. market in 2009. In addition to ongoing product development for the auto industry, Jig-A-Loo USA engineered Graphite Extreme to specifically meet the unique needs of the automotive end-user by standing up to harsh working environments in the shop and on the track,” said Jean-Loup Barbeau, Brand Manager, Jig-A-Loo USA, Inc. “Our company selected SEMA to introduce Graphite Extreme because the show draws the industry’s brightest minds and hottest products to one place and attracts more than 120,000 industry leaders from over 100 countries.”
Designed to adhere and endure on components exposed to high heat, Graphite Extreme is ideal for header/exhaust bolts, belt pulleys, shock pistons and clutch and transmission linkages. For use in extreme temperatures ranging from -99-1000 degrees F, Graphite Extreme is ideal for automotive applications wherever friction and heat cause lubrication problems. Also useful in hard-to-reach places where manual lubrication presents problems, it is effective under-the-hood on cable linkages, hood latches and hinges. As an internal lubricant, Graphite Extreme can be used as an extra layer of protection on camshaft surfaces during engine break-in, roller rocker arms, valve tips or brake caliper pistons. In addition to its lubrication and anti-seize properties, Graphite Extreme can be used to treat surfaces to prevent rust formation and freezing.
Jig-A-Loo USA’s original lubricant, Jig-A-Loo, has been a popular product in Canada since 1998 quickly establishing itself as Canada’s best all-around lubricant. In 2007, Jig-A-Loo was launched in the United States and made its official automotive debut at last year’s SEMA Show. As part of Jig-A-Loo USA’s growing expansion in to the marketplace, Jig-A-Loo USA recently launched its newest product called Jig-A-Patch, the first sprayable drywall filler and 3 tools in one: spackle, putty knife and sanding sponge for the do-it-yourselfer and professional handyman. Graphite Extreme now joins the Jig-A-Loo USA family of products. Stay tuned as Jig-A-Loo USA continues its ascent as one of North America’s newest innovative companies.
Graphite Extreme is now shipping to Home Depot and Independent Hardware stores Nationwide.
