Ceramic Paste

All-purpose ceramic paste for lubricating and mounting heavily loaded sliding surfaces

Areas of application

• Lubrication of all kinds of highly stressed sliding surfaces, especially at low slip speeds or with oscillating movements
• Surface separation of temperature-stressed threaded connections
• For stainless-steel connections

• Broad field of application
• Good wear and corrosion protection
• Prevents burning-on and cold welding
• Good pressure absorption capacity
• No classification marks according to (EG) No. 1272/2008
• Prolonged lubrication effect
• Metal-free

• lower operating temperature: -30 °C
• upper operating temperature: 100 °C / 1,400 °C (lubrication / separation)
• four-ball test rig welding load: 3,400 N
• thread friction coefficient (μ total): 0.13 (screw ISO 4017 M10x55-8.8 black-oxide, nut ISO 4032 M10-10 black-oxide)

Applications
For best adhesion, clean contamination and other lubricants from thread and slide surfaces. Best way is to clean mechanically first (for example, with a wire brush) and then with OKS 2610/OKS 2611 universal cleaning agent. Use a brush, spatula or similar to apply evenly a suitable quantity of paste to the head or nut contact surface and to the thread. The paste also acts as a sealant against spray water and condensate. Do not use paste instead of grease and mix only with suitable lubricants.
