Brookfield's Spectro Oils Celebrates 50 Years in Business

BROOKFIELD, CT-- Brookfield-based Spectro Oils of America marked a milestone this March by celebrating their 50th anniversary, according to a release.

Spectro was founded by Robert H. Wehman in 1966 were one of the pioneers in the 2-stroke motorcycle oil industry which gained traction during the 60's. Wehman was an an engineer with decades of experience in the specialized field of two-cycle automotive lubricants. Spectro Oils said Wehman "capitalized on the knowledge gained by solving fuel/oil mixture problems for Saab of America at a time when Saab marketed 2-stroke automobiles in the USA."

The company supplies oil, brake fluid, coolants and many other products to motorcycle and power sport companies worldwide.

According to their website:

"Spectro entered the small but avid motorcycle market of the 1960s at a critical time — new makes and types of machines were coming into the market from both Europe and Asia, older manufacturers were starting to struggle with survival of their aged designs — but the immediate need for a top-performing, reliable 2-stroke racing oil was never so real. Spectro’s Golden 2 Cycle filled the bill and helped many a racer cross the finish line without problems, race after race."

The Spectro product line includes full synthetic, semi-synthetic and petroleum lubricants for nearly every niche of the power-sport market and high performance automotive applications.

Spectro is located at 993 Federal Road, Brookfield.
