Kopr-Kote is a unique anti-seize compound which provides protection against metal to metal contact under the most adverse conditions of temperature (800°C) and corrosion. It is an NLGI No 1.5 aluminium complex soap based grease fortified with corrosion and oxidation inhibitors, tackiness, extreme pressure and anti wear additives, along with copper and graphite anti-seize fillers. It is lead free.
Kopr-Kote is designed for use as an anti-seize compound/lubricant in areas where high temperatures, high torque, high pressure, sealing or corrosion present a problem. Such areas include the mining, exploration, industrial, marine, automotive and transportation fields and also domestic and handyman applications.
Typical uses are:
• As a gasket coating and thread lubricant for industrial boiler, oven and furnace fittings, valves and flanges. Similarly for automotive cylinder head gaskets, exhaust manifold threads, exhaust system joints and other applications where very high temperatures are encountered.
• As an anti-seize lubricant for drill collars, tool joints and wire line dressing in the mineral and oil exploration fields.
• As a lubricant/corrosion preventive in areas of acidic or salt attack such as threads around acid baths in plating works, sulfuric acid plants and timber processing plants where acetic acid in wood sap is particularly corrosive.
• For numerous domestic and handyman applications such as wood screws, nuts and bolts, hinges exposed to weather, heating stove fittings, etc.
• As a lubricant for feed screws, adjusting screws, brake linkages, drive chains etc, particularly on earthmoving equipment and in similar applications.
Useable temperature range in continuous service is -25 to 130°C.
May be used at much higher temperatures (up to 800°C) where the carrier grease is decomposed, leaving the solid additives to afford lubication.
