These products are formulated to conform to recommendations for oilfield drill pipes outlined in API Bulletin 7A1. Its special grease base is highly resistant to water and prevents leakage at high temperatures. The tackiness agents & super fine metallic powder are dispersed uniformly so that it doesn’t build up on thread & provides great chemical stability.
