{"product_id":"tef-gel","title":"Tef-Gel Antiseize Lubricant","description":"\u003cp\u003eAnti-corrosive and anti-seize lubricant. Inhibits electrolytic corrosion between dissimilar metals; eliminates the seizing and galling of metals; a lubricant that will not break down in salt water or detergents. Use on masts, winches, bolts, screws, rivets, etc. The 1\/4 and 1 oz. come in an easy to apply syringe; the 16 oz. in a tub.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTech Speak:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e1. The function of Tef-Gel in eliminating dissimilar metal corrosion is the elimination of electrolytes from entering the interface of the metallic surfaces. Tef-Gel paste contains 40% PTFE powder and 0% volatile solvents, no silicones or petroleum solvents to evaporate, which would leave voids for electrolytes to be drawn into creating a galvanic cell. When both surfaces are coated and mated with Tef-Gel there are no voids for electrolytes (saltwater) to be drawn in by capillary action over extended periods of time.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eEXAMPLE:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eA.

Bedding surfaces: A closely mating surface (10 mils .010 or closer) can be protected from capillary action by applying a thin coat of Tef-Gel with brush, toothbrush, or plastic scraper and assembling the parts and cleaning excess product with mineral spirits or WD-40.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eTef-Gel does not electrically insulate hardware.
