Don't listen to anyone putting you off EP oils they are a superior performance and do not dissolve brass or bronze as they used to do in the 60's.

Hope that is helpful to you.
 
If an EP oil has an API rating of either GL-4 or GL-5 then the sulphur is inactive and safe to use in boxes with bronze bearings.
