Simplify Rubber and Plastic Fittings with P-80 Emulsion Temporary Lubricant
Dixon DXDCL80 (P-80 Emulsion) is a high-performance, water-based assembly lubricant designed to reduce friction by approximately 70%, making the installation of tight-fitting hoses, O-rings, seals, and bushings significantly easier. Unlike permanent lubricants, this biodegradable formula provides high lubricity only while wet; once it dries, typically within one hour, the slipping action disappears to ensure a secure, seated fit. This property helps prevent musculoskeletal injuries for technicians and reduces part rejection rates across automotive, marine, and heavy construction applications.
Engineered for compatibility with most natural and synthetic elastomers, plastics, and metals, P-80 Emulsion is a versatile essential for any shop or production line. It's non-toxic, non-flammable, and can be applied via manual dipping, brushing, or automated spray systems.
- Applications: Ideal for coupling shanks, grommets, gaskets, tires, and sleeves.
- Safety Profile: pH of ~8.4, non-corrosive, and safe for use in industrial environments.
- Usage Tip: Shake or stir the 4-liter container before use to ensure a homogenous mixture; avoid air agitation.
- Storage: Store between 2°C and 30°C (36°F – 86°F) to maintain shelf life; do not freeze.
