MOLYKOTE 4 Electrical Insulating Compound
MOLYKOTE 4 Electrical Insulating Compound is a silicone-based, semi-flowable paste designed for electrical insulation applications. Its unique rheology allows for easy application by hand, brush, or wipe, enabling it to penetrate and fill complex geometries. Shear-thinning behavior enhances flow into tight spaces, providing complete coverage and superior moisture protection.
The compound boasts high dielectric strength and excellent electrical insulating properties, coupled with good adhesion to a variety of substrates including metals, elastomers, polymers, and ceramics. Its low volatility, minimal evaporation, and exceptional oxidation stability ensure reliable performance from -54 C to 200 C. The product is also certified to NSF 51 and 61, meets 21 CFR 175.30, and holds Kosher Pareve and Halal certifications; it is tested to AMS8660 Tables 1-4. A long shelf life of 60 months is ensured when stored in original, unopened containers.
NLGI Grade 2-3; translucent white; used primarily as a lubricant and moisture-proof seal for assembly of metal-on-polymer and metal-on-rubber combinations and sealed electrical connectors, disconnect junctions and terminals
