Decided to start a new thread with relation to this topic
https://www.airgunnation.com/topic/do-not-use-superlube-grease-for-pcp-handpump/
I had been using Superlube multi purpose grease with PTFE (21030), but stopped after I read about the original posters issues with his Hill Pump.
I sent an email to Synco technical support and they recommended not using it with high pressure.
What I have picked up from there Technical data sheets and SDS.
21030 Multi purpose with PTFE: Fire rating 1. Not for pure oxygen environments. For use in almost all applications including metal to metal and orings.
92003 Silicone with PTFE: Fire Rating 1. Less applications. Mostly plastic, rubber and metal to plastic.
93003 Oring Silicone grease: Fire Rating 1. Orings, seals etc.
The fire rating of these worries me.
What type of synthetic grease can one use on the threads of air tubes and buddy bottles to prevent damage or premature wear of the threads. If not lubricated, the threads take a lot of wear when changing air tubes or bottles.
From personal experience, I now know that silicon grease does not work as it causes seizing. Is there a non-flammable product on the market that can safely be used on threads in high pressure areas.
Thanks
Kevin
