K383 is a lead-free anti-seize compound made from high-quality mineral oils and a non-soap thickener, incorporating copper powder and graphite. Its anti-seize properties allow it to function even when joints are highly compressed and the compound is squeezed out, or excessive temperature causes the oily part to flash off. A fine film of copper particles remains on joints or threads to prevent seizure. Features: - Prevents seizure and galling during assembly, reducing assembly time. - Enables easy dismantling of components subjected to high temperatures. - Provides effective anti-seize in saturated conditions, including chemical environments and saltwater. - Allows for fast and easy dismantling of components, enabling their reuse. Applications: K383 is ideal for lubricating brake linkages and is also recommended as a thread lubricant for studs, pipes, casings, and any application where smooth disassembly is required. It can be confidently used on threads of pipes carrying very hot and corrosive liquids or gases, assisting sealing and ensuring trouble-free disassembly. This includes pipe fittings and valves in the chemical, petrochemical, gas, and drilling industries. Apply sparingly with a brush to threaded components before assembly. For best results, ensure both threaded surfaces are completely coated. Performance Level: DIN 51502 K1/2R-30 ISO 6743-9 L-XCGIA1/2.
