The latest electrical contact lubricant produced by Electrolube Ltd., is Electrolube 2 GA-X, a grease in aerosol form. It has been specially formulated for ap plication to heavy-duty electrical contacts under the most severe temperature and weather con ditions. It is particularly useful where contacts are not easily accessible and where there is a tendency for a liquid lubricant to migrate.
Completely free of hydrocarbons and silicones, Electrolube 2 GA-X is claimed to be safe on all known plastics, paints and rubbers. it is non-toxic, non-flammable and non-irritant. On heavy-duty contacts it will reduce resistance and arcing, protect electrical and electronic equipment from corrosion and condensation, improve the per formance of insulators and prevent tracking in damp conditions. It removes tarnish non-chemically by infiltration, has no abrasive properties and is specially suitable for applications to battery connections and ignition systems.
The lubricant has a temperature range of —40deg C to +200deg C.
