Cyclo-Sil6 VOC Exempt Silicone Lubricant is a 100% silicone-based lubricant that is exempt from federal VOC regulations including California CARB, South Coast Air Quality and OTC. It is HAP-free and RoHS Compliant. The fluid is clear, colorless and odorless with a viscosity close to water. Cyclo- Sil6 is inert to virtually all substrates including metal, plastics, rubbers and elastomers. Unlike conventional lubricants, it contains no petroleum distillates or solvents.
Cyclo-Sil6 will atomize when applied via a hand sprayer or power sprayer. It is being widely used to replace non VOC compliant silicone aerosol sprays. In comparison to an aerosol, Cyclo-Sil6 is significantly less expensive and does not have the combustion hazard of aerosol products. Unlike an aerosol, there are no restrictions to ship Cyclo-Sil6 via ground, air or ocean.
For lubricating plastic and rubber parts/components, there is no better choice than a silicone-based product. The active ingredient of Hexa-Sil6 is Polydimethylsiloxane, which is composed of 100% synthetic material. Unlike conventional petroleum and glycol-based products, silicone fluids are compatible with virtually all plastic and rubber materials including EPDM, Neoprene, Natural Rubber, Teflon, virgin, Butyl, Nitrile, Styrene Butadiene, Buna-N, PVC, LDPE, HDPE.
Although silicones are not recommended for metal-to-metal applications, they are strongly recommended for metal-to-plastic and metal-to-rubber applications.
Properties:
- Clear, colorless and odorless fluid
- Eliminates sticking when sprayed on rails, belts, stamps and grip fingers of labeling equipment
- Prevents sticking on chutes, bins, walls and surfaces. Keeps material moving and prevents adhesion of greases and oils, provides slide for tight fittings.
- Imparts a tenacious-durable silicone film that is clear, colorless, odorless, non-staining, dielectric and inert
- Excellent lubrication for plastics, rubbers, vinyls & foams
- Cosmetic grade…will not dry out the oils in the skin
