FEATURES & BENEFITS OF DOW CORNING 5 COMPOUND

• Nonconductive


• Water repellent


• Long lasting


• Easy to apply


• Helps prevent formation of conductive paths

APPLICATIONS FOR DOW CORNING 5 COMPOUND

• Applications where improved metal-to-metal lubricity (compared to other Dow Corning® brand silicone compounds) is needed


• To help prevent arcing and flashovers on insulators and bushings


• As a contact lubricant on high-voltage equipment


• To lubricate static and dynamic O-ring seals in hot-melt adhesive equipment


• To help prevent rust and corrosion on insulator threads and bolts; also helps in removal of insulators and hardware for replacement


• As a water-repellent filling material to help prevent moisture from traveling inside the rubber jacket of service entrance cable (can be injected using a grease gun with a needle-type nozzle)


• To help prevent oxidation and corrosion on contacts and band-tightening screws of socket-type watt-hour meters
