Mil-Comm Products Company was formed in 1984 by former U.S. Navy gunnery officer Robert G. Furlong with the specific goal of engineering a new breed of next-generation extreme performance, non-hazardous, lubricants for military and commercial markets.
From its inception, the Company pursued a collaborative relationship with all branches of the U.S. Military, investing significant time and financial resources in R&D project work led by U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army and U.S. Coast Guard program managers. By fielding veteran, expert weapons engineers to work directly with U.S. Military personnel, Mil-Comm has differentiated itself from other lubricant manufacturers the Company has consistently taken the long view, engineering and re-engineering its products based on specific criteria provided to it by U.S. military weapons system program managers.
As a result, the company's core formulation TW25B and its derivatives now play a vital role in the supply mix of extreme performance lubricants currently supporting weapon systems fielded by the U.S. Military and 12 US-Allied Militaries.
The United States Department of Defense has issued the Company 20 NSN s (National Stock Numbers) for the DoD supply system (with the same numbers also in use as NATO stock numbers).
In 2004 Mil-Comm was awarded a highly selective, Ten-year, Sole-source Requirements Contract for four of its extreme performance lubricants by the Defense Department's Defense Logistics Agency.
In 2006, Mil-Comm was awarded a Gold Medal for exceptional supply service and reliability from The U.S. Defense Department s Defense Supply Center.

Light Grease Lubricant/Protectant
TW25B Light Synthetic Grease is Mil-Comm s original formula and a top-selling, extreme performance firearms lubricant worldwide. Its exceptional performance in adverse conditions (sand, dirt, high-humidity, salt-water and extreme temperature environments) has made it the choice of the U.S. Military, leading law enforcement agencies and sport shooters worldwide. Provides ultimate lubrication protection for all wear parts and the bore; eliminates galling, short-stroking; improves bore accuracy; increases muzzle velocity best choice for extreme pressure, heavy load bearing conditions. EXCELLENT for long-term storage, maintaining weapons in fire-ready condition. All-synthetic, non-toxic.
Oil Lubricant/Protectant (AKA TW25B Oil )
MC2500 Oil is engineered with the same chemistry that distinguishes TW25B -- but it's specially formulated in a lighter oil viscosity. MC2500 delivers the same exceptional performance that TW25B grease is known for. Its lighter viscosity allows for easy migration to hard-to-reach weapon parts, such as trigger assemblies. Ideal for dispensing into parts where a full disassembly is neither desirable nor practical. Also excellent for general quick-lubrication replenishment to all parts. All synthetic, non-toxic.
Weapons Cleaner/DeGreaser
MC25 Firearm Cleaner Degreaser is Mil-Comm Products environmentally safe, water based, pH balanced, non-toxic formula that emulsifies organic substances on contact including gun lubricants, powder residue and other debris. This non-toxic cleaner properly prepares all kinds of firearms for application of one of Mil-Comm Products extreme performance lubricants. Provides gentle, powerful cleaning and de-greasing action. (Not a solvent). All-synthetic, non-toxic.
