Container Sizes � Spray, cans and pails.

Primary Use � Part assembly; running in; as a press-fitting lubricant where high temperature is a factor.
Special Characteristics � Wider and higher operating temperature range than organic oil based pastes; extreme loads; low speeds.
Physical Form � Black, soap thickened, silicone fluid based paste containing more than 60% MoS2.
Applications � Lubricating during running-in of gears, splines, journal bearings, cams; reducing torque in tightening threads and bolts; lubricating bearing shafts, O-rings, packings and seals, brake assemblies; press-fitting.
Temperature Range � Solids from �50 to 750 degrees Fahrenheit (-45 to 399 degrees Celsius); base oil from �40 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 to 232 degrees Celsius).
Limitations � Not recommended for use in pressure lines.
Container Sizes � Cans, pails and drums.

Primary Use � High Temperature Anti-Seize Premium multi-purpose paste for threaded connections.
Special Characteristics � Release and sealing properties; resists aging; wide service temperature range; protects against fretting corrosion.
Physical Form � Brown, mineral oil based paste containing solid lubricants, powdered metals and corrosion inhibitors.
Applications � Lubricating threaded connectors exposed to severe environments; lubricating rollers, oven chains, hinges, marine and outdoor equipment.
Temperature Range � Solids from �20 to 1202 degrees Fahrenheit (-29 to 650 degrees Celsius); base oil from �40 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 to 121 degrees Celsius).
Limitations � Not recommended for use in grease guns or high-pressure systems; separation may occur.
Container Sizes � Cans.
