2X Contact Lubrication Range Product Code: SGB (Grease), SOB (Oil) TECHNICAL DATA SHEET PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The Electrolube 2X range was developed as an extension of the No 2 Range with increased plastics compatibility. This product development was necessary due to the increasing use of thermoplastics in the electronics and automotive industries. The 2X Range offers similar properties to the 2 Range in that the use of one of these contact lubricants will significantly increase contact performance and lifetime. A separate data sheet is available on the diluted version of the 2X Oil, called Contact Cleaner Lubricant (EML). 100% Ozone Friendly aerosol products are available. PRODUCT USE For the lubrication of all types of electrical contacts with most types of thermoplastics. A separate data sheet is available with a listing of compatible plastics. If in any doubt a small area should be tested prior to full scale production. 2X Oil should be used on contacts with very low or high contact pressures and in applications where it will not migrate. For example brushes, commutators, bearings, jack plugs, push button switches, relays etc. 2X Grease is a non-melting product that will not migrate from vertical surfaces and will provide greater environmental protection than the oil. Thus the grease is preferable in industrial applications where heavy arcing is common. For example battery terminals, knife switches, rheostats etc. The grease is also preferable in switches with a very long lifetime and high cycle rate, for example, the automotive switching industry.

Certificate No. FM 32082 2X Contact Lubrication Range - Page 2 * Contains no silicones or hydrocarbons reducing switch contamination TECHNICAL DATA SHEET * Will loosen tarnish and corrosion and leave a protective film to prevent further contamination * Prevents arcing, thus reduces contact wear * Highly stable synthetic material, fully inhibited against oxidisation and copper corrosion * Excellent penetration and cooling properties * Good mechanical lubrication * The aerosol version of 2X oil (SOB200D) is prepared using a non flammable solvent (Methylene Chloride) and a 100% ozone friendly propellant blend. This material should be tested when sensitive plastics are present.
