SPARKPLUG GREASE

Product Description

SPARKPLUG GREASE is a translucent, hydrophobic, silicone dielectric compound that offers premium water repellency and corrosion protection. The main purpose of dielectric grease is to seal, waterproof, lubricate, and insulate both indoor and outdoor electrical connections with a layer of non-hardening dielectric paste. It is electrically insulating but allows current to flow through metal contacts, providing environmental protection without inhibiting connectivity or causing short circuits. It is also good for lubricating and sealing rubber and plastic parts.  Silicone dielectric grease is commonly used on outdoor lighting, scoreboards, traffic lights, high voltage poles, transformers, disconnects, switching mechanisms, electrical contacts, spark plugs, battery terminals, fasteners, seals, gaskets, plastic insulators, and O-rings. This silicone-based grease is useful in marine environments and harsh weather conditions. We also offer electrically conductivethermally conductive, and lubricating greases.

Benefits

·        Suitable for high and low voltage applications.

·        Seals, waterproofs, insulates, and lubricates.

·        Prevents corrosion, arcing and pitting.

·        Temperature resistant—does not harden, melt, bleed, dry, freeze, or separate due to temperature fluctuations.

·        Safe on rubbers and plastics.

Application Instructions

·        Wear protective gloves.

·        Clean and dry the surface with a lint-free cloth or brush and a zero-residue cleaning solvent,  

              such as MG #824 Isopropyl Alcohol.

  •   Apply an adequate amount of grease to cover and protect the contact

    

Storage and Handling

Ø  Store between 0 and 30 °C in dry area to minimize settling (see SDS).
