A/G = ANTI GALLING-ANTI SIEZE
A/G thread lubricant
is "guaranteed" to eliminate galling on stainless steel threaded connections. It performs as an excellent sealant
and lowers torque requirements, as proper make-up is achieved quickly with minimum torque. In addition to eliminating galling on stainless steel threads, A/G
is equally effective on other gall-susceptible materials, as well as ferrous alloys and may also be used on more common types
of carbon steel. It has passed both the "Shrimp Test" (drilling fluid toxicity test) and the Static Sheen Test in
accordance with EPA standards. A/G contains a high percentage of
PTFE flake that will seal off a leak path and prevent the passage of fugitive emissions at pressures up to 20,000 PSI.
The need for Teflon tape is eliminated. A/G
contains no metals or other ingredients which may be hygienically or environmentally harmful. A/G
is an excellent lubricant for reducing friction

72 is a heavy duty,
nickel based thread lubricant designed to prevent galling and accomplish proper make-up with less torque. Repeatability is
important. 72
has a K-factor, which is not only lower, but also more consistent than any other nickel based compound. 72 is particularly recommended
for use in extreme temperatures. Connections subject to "metal creep" may no longer offer a good fit between
mating surfaces. The solids package in 72
continues to provide a reliable bearing surface to prevent galling during breakout.72 does not contain sulfur bearing or other materials that might
cause stress cracking (an important feature in the nuclear industry).Recommended for temperatures up to 2500° F.

70+ = HI-PRESSURE-MOLY
BASED
70+ is a thread compound
formulated to provide smooth make-up and breakout of threaded connections. Another primary function is the prevention of rust
and corrosion. 70+ contains well over 70% pure molybdenum disulfide,
more than any other moly paste. For decades, moly has been recognized for its lubricity under pressure and its ability
to pack solidly and smoothly into the pores of metal surfaces. It is also noted for its chemical stability at temperatures
below 750°F.
70+
contains a significant concentration of rust and corrosion inhibitors. An H2S inhibitor is also included. 70+ is recommended for general use on threaded connections and press fits, and performs
well as a lubricant for nut splitter chisels. It can also be used on seal rings and as a dressing for packing and o-rings. 70+ works well as a wear-in
lubricant and a variety of other applications where sliding friction is present. It is recommended for use at temperatures not exceeding 750°F.

WITH 40-50% SOLIDS

444 = WATERPROOF
LUBRICANT
444 contains a 40% blend of lubricating solids, providing
excellent protection from wear and grinding pressures of slow moving heavy machinery. This grease is primarily intended
for use on open gears. It also works well as a heavy-duty thread compound, especially where resistance to water washout
is important. 444
offers the added advantage of long-term rust and corrosion protection. It is not only waterproof, but also contains additives
specifically designed to prevent the damaging effects of salt and other corrosive elements. 444 performs well in other applications
that involve splines, u-joints, chucks, pillow block bearings and most high impact surfaces & heavily loaded, slow moving
mechanisms. It can also be used in freezing temperatures or in temperatures as high as 300°F.

RS-18 = ANTI-GALL
THREAD/SHAFT
RS18
is an excellent thread lubricant designed to eliminate wear and galling on stainless or other gall-susceptible
threaded connections. RS18 does not reduce torque requirements to levels below
those of other compounds. This is an important feature for applications involving rotary shouldered connections, or in other
situations where over-torquing is a concern. RS18 is also recommended for lubrication of shafts and other gall-susceptible
mechanisms, which would normally be lubricated with smooth extreme pressure grease. It is intended for use at temperatures
ranging from zero to 300° F. In addition, it is completely water-insoluble. RS18 is a film forming lubricant.
It has a strong polar attraction to metal surfaces and applies readily to threads and other machined parts. During use, a
thin resilient coating is formed on areas subject to heavy loading and frictional heat. This thin layer helps prevent further
abrasive contact between surfaces.
