10 oz Tube White Extreme Temperature Quick Dry Lubricant | GLLXTLUBE

Key Features

• In low temperature applications the gasket will shrink, thereby lowering the sealing force on the gasket sealing lips, the temperature change will also force the gasket to slightly reposition itself, this will cause pipe end sealing surfaces, with small cuts or damage, to become more susceptible to leakage, Gruvlok Xtreme lubricant will maintain it's lubricating properties at lower temperatures allowing a properly lubricated pipe end and gasket (assembly) to reposition itself during temperature cycles
• For high temperature service and copper systems, it is required that the gasket be lubricated with a light thin-coating on the inside of the gasket, Gruvlok Xtreme lubrication will maintain its lubricating properties at higher temperatures, allowing a properly lubricated pipe end and gasket assembly to re-position itself during temperature cycles, Lubrication of the pipe end and gasket will help the gasket to adjust into the proper sealing position during temperature cycles, the lubricant on the interior of the gasket will act to improve the chemical-resistance of the gasket material by providing a thin lubricant barrier between the piping system fluid and the gasket surface, this is particularly important at higher temperatures where oxidizing agents in the piping system become more aggressive, however, gasket chemical compatibility must still be considered
• The Gruvlok Xtreme lubricant has been formulated from low viscosity, non-petroleum based oils to ease spreading of the lubricant, in applications where pipe movement is expected, proper lubrication of the gaskets exterior assists the gasket into the proper sealing position as pipe system movement occurs, this lubricating film enhances our flexible coupling gaskets ability to compensate for axial, transverse and rotational pipe movements
• Gruvlok Xtreme lubricant is the only Gruvlok lubricant that is to be used with Gruvlok couplings and gaskets in HDPE and copper piping systems, its low temperature capability and lubricity ensure a highly reliable connection
