Iridium IX: Designed for the Performance Enthusiasts

/in /by

The NGK Iridium IX spark plug is designed for performance enthusiasts, claiming to deliver enhanced throttle response and superior resistance to fouling thanks to its long insulator nose. The anti-corrosion trivalent metal plating on the body and threads of these iridium plugs reduces the likelihood of them getting stuck in a vehicle’s cylinder head, even after many years of hard service out on the water.

These NGK Iridium spark plugs are tested to the highest original equipment standards, providing the performance and service upgrade a vehicle deserves.

All NGK spark plugs also must pass extensive testing procedures and quality checks to ensure fit and performance.

  • Combustion pressure testing to maintain stable performance
  • Acceleration testing for improved acceleration performance
  • Mechanical vibration testing
  • Thermal shock testing to -40oF
  • Tightest resistor manufacturing process in the industry

Rust and Corrosion Have Met Their Match with Super Lube Greases

/in /by

Lewis Marine Supply is very excited to now offer Super Lube brand products. Here are a few of the Super Lube products now available.

Super Lube Silicone Dielectric Grease is a specially formulated non-curing silicone compound that seals, protects, and insulates electrical components and connectors. It is waterproof and provides a barrier against moisture and other contaminants in many types of electrical contact points.

Super Lube Multi Purpose Synthetic Grease ( 21030 ) is a patented synthetic, multi-purpose lubricant with Syncolon (PTFE). Synthetic base fluids and the addition of PTFE micro powders combine to form a premium lubricant that provides protection against friction, wear, rust and corrosion over a temperature range of -45°F to +450°F.  It’s a grease that doesn’t drip, run or evaporate.

Super Lube Multi Purpose Synthetic Lubricant (31110) is a synthetic, heavy duty multi-purpose aerosol.  Super Lube aerosol disperses and penetrates while lubricating and loosening rust and dirt. Super Lube aerosol offers continuous protection as it sets up and forms a grease film barrier that protects against oxidation. This barrier helps extend the life of your equipment and reduces maintenance.

It’s The Spark That Starts It All

/in /by
NGK Spark Pulgs

If you’ve been around marine engines, you have probably seen and heard of NGK spark plugs.  Spark plugs are an integral component of your gasoline engine ignition system, providing the final transmission of electrical current into the combustion chamber to ignite the fuel. 

Every time you get in and start your watercraft, you are most likely not thinking about what is happening inside your engine, which is how it should be.  Let’s face it, no one wants to be enjoying time on the water and experience engine issues.  The correct spark plugs are a small, yet crucial part of keeping your engine reliable and running smoothly.

NGK has built a reputation for quality and reliability with their commitment to excellence. Insure confidence in your ignition system by taking the easy step of making NGK spark plugs a part of your maintenance program.  Lewis Marine Supply stocks the majority of numbers in the NGK catalog of marine spark plugs.

Is Your Emergency Safety Kit Ready To Keep You Safe?

/in /by

Boaters are required to have safety equipment by the U.S. Coast Guard for all Vessels. For personal watercraft, for example, a small kit for treating minor cuts and scrapes is probably adequate. For boating farther from shore, a more elaborate marine safety kit may be needed.

Having a proper marine First-Aid Kit on board can help you render immediate emergency care, and sometimes even save a life. It’s one of the safety-related items that Coast Guard Auxiliary and United States Power Squadrons® vessel examiners discuss when conducting an annual Vessel Safety Check (VSC) on recreational boats.

Make sure before you cast off that your marine emergency safety equipment is up-to-date and meets todays regulations. Just remember… it’s better to be safe then sorry. Be prepared!

What are some safety kit items that you are required to carry on board?

  • Personal Flotation Devices
  • Fire Extinguishers
  • Visual Distress Signals
  • Sound Producing Devices
  • Marine Sanitation Devices
  • Pollution Regulation Placards

The general scale for boat classifications is as follows:

  • Vessels less than 16 feet
  • Vessels 16 – 26 feet
  • Vessels 26 – 40 feet
  • Vessels 40 – 65 feet

The Rest of the Gear We Recommend

The above list will satisfy the minimum requirements for operating your boat, but there are other safety products that have proven their worth in the event something happens on the water. While these products will require a little more investment on your part, they are an investment in the safety of yourself and others on your boat. At Lewis Marine Supply, we are committed to making life on the water as fulfilling and enjoyable as possible and having the right safety gear is part of that.
