Introduction

Q
uick maintenance products are designed to assist you in your maintenance,
repair and overhauls of critical components during your routine activities in
running the plant smoothly.

There is no rocket science in a maintenance product designed for such

applications. Certain things are kept in mind, however. That it must be able to perform
the primary function it is designed to, quickly and conveniently, with the press of a
trigger. Certain brands have strengths in some areas and hence sometimes you will find
their performance better than other products. Like, mos2 based assembly sprays from
Molykote®, cleaners and degreasers from LPS, or a penetrating lubricant from WD-
40.

Lately, there has been a trend to move towards environment friendly CFC free
propellants. And the use of a CO2 as a propellant is gaining popularity. These are
certain features of a spray can for your information:

Propellant
Actuator

Valve Cap

Spring
Can
Housing

Dip Tube
Base

If the propellant is CO2, the active content in the spray can will be more delivering
more quantities for the can volume. Some sprays have inverta valves as in LPS that
allows you to spray upside down.

When you need to choose a spray, you need to frame certain criteria as the number of
available products for one application is many – Project Sales Corp alone has over 200
varieties of products and not all of them are featured here.

sales@projectsalescorp.com
What to look for in quick maintenance spray ?

We are using this category as an illustration of what’s normally the criteria when it
comes to a right selection of a quick maintenance spray product.

A cleaner and degreaser should ideally have:

- a low surface tension allowing it to penetrate into the depositions quickly and
thoroughly.

- a better kauri-butanol value denoting stronger solvents for better cleaning

- fast evaporation allowing you to finish your job quicker allowing for assembly
of component

- compatibility with the components to be cleaned. Many sprays can affect

plastic parts and hence are not suitable for electrical or electronic applications.

- a CFC free propellant and environmentally safe.

Similarly, a better penetrating oil/ lubricant would have the following features:

- a better film forming capacity to separate metallic elements

- should have better penetration properties with low surface tension

- should be able to displace water and inhibit flash corrosion

- a extreme pressure lubricant for high load application should have certain
amount of solid lubricants for better load handling, emergency lubrication and
thin-film lubrication under hydro-dynamic conditions.

- Similarly, a spray for use in food and beverage plants should be USDA
certified and contain additives that will not harm in case of incidental contact.

- And, the product should be easy to use, rightly priced, easily available and from
a recognized source.

Project Sales Corp, is associated with world leaders in their respective fields of
specialization in sprays and maintains sufficient quantities of stocks at all times, and
sells direct to key accounts and to hundreds of other customers through its network of
dealers and sub-dealers.

LPS, Project SalesMolykote S-1002, the rightly priced fast evaporating contact
Corp, has it all, and
cleaner is safe on plastics, residueless (hence no further cleaning
sold over 1000 cleaner
cans in 2004.T
required) and can be used for electrical as well as electronic
equipment. It can replace electrical cleaners and electronic PCB
cleaner, with single product. 400 ml spray can.

LPS CFC Free from world renowned LPS Labs, USA with a low
surface tension, high KB value delivers better cleaning efficiency
than most other electrical contact cleaners. 340 grams net weight
indicates a CO2 propellant and more active contents delivering a
powerful performance.

ICC Electro Contact Cleaner, imported from Aztec, USA is also

a fast evaporating, fast penetrating, residueless contact cleaner for cleaning and
degreasing all electrical and electronic components of oil, grease, dirt and other
contaminants. 500 ml spray can.

All the cleaners above have to be used off-line as they could contain solvents which
could cause a flash-fire.

ICC On-Line Cleaner/ Degreaser (OLCD): This is a non-conductive, non-

flammable solvent designed for cleaning and degreasing while equipment is in
operation. Contains all the features that a good quality cleaner/ degreaser should have.
Also known as safety solvent, due to its non-flammable ingredients. 700 ml spray can,
imported from Aztec, USA and marketed in this region by Project Sales Corp, the one-
stop source for most of your maintenance consumables.

Penetrating Oils and Rust Looseners

Whether you call them mere rust looseners, or water displacers or
corrosion inhibitors, this class of products are designed for
loosening rusted components. So that you don’t have to break
your head over a nut in the field. With so many products and
brands available, it’s difficult to conclusively says which is the
best. Hence, Project Sales Corp, as a key stockist for all these
brands let the customers decide what’s best for them.

sales@projectsalescorp.com
 WD-40: Undoubtedly, the world’s most popular rust loosener with over a
1000 other applications. This multi-functional product, in 311 grams, comes
from WD-40 company, US which probably is the single largest penetrating
oil brand in the world. Rightly priced, delivers value and widely available
from a network of dealers and sub-dealers.

Rustlick 631™: Convenient, easy to spray multi-functional product, as the

name implies, is designed for quick loosening of rust from components in
3-5 minutes. Just spray and leave for sometime and clean with a dry rag. Also used for
short-term corrosion protection, displace moisture and prevent battery terminal
sulphation. 370 ml spray cans.

3-in-One Professional High Performance Penetrant (From WD-40): With the

highly successful WD-40 used for more applications than mere rust loosening, WD-40
company now introduces a fast acting formula for loosening rusted parts in a 311
grams spray can.

Molykote® Supergliss: The cost-effective rust loosening product for general purpose
dismantling applications of rusted components. The special feature of this product is
that it has a very good salt water resistance, making it ideal for short-term corrosion
protection of components disassembled for re-assembly after a certain period. 400 ml
spray can used extensively at Nalco, NTPC, VSP, etc.

Dow Corning® Penelube: Where nothing else

works, try this product. A premium penetrating oil
from Dow Corning, with white solid lubricants that
penetrates into the minutest of crevices to loosen the
most critically seized and rusted components, as in
turbines, engines and gear boxes. 340 grams can.

Dow Corning® Moly-Penelube: The Penelube as

above fortified with MOS2 for completely seized
assemblies that has to be dis-assembled. Probably
the only proven product for critical turbine
applications. Use it when you have to be absolutely
sure, it works.

All the above products are designed, as mentioned in

the beginning, for quick maintenance applications.
However, keep in mind that certain assemblies may
have to be sprayed with the product, left overnight,
slightly hammered in the morning to respond to the
treatment as the case study on the right suggests.

sales@projectsalescorp.com
Assembly and Anti-seize Spray
Probably not known, but true, that the one of the key waste of time in the field, is the
dis-assembly of corroded and seized components. Whether be it nuts and bolts or
bearings, gears or key ways, what’s assembled must be dis-assembled one day for
maintenance, repair or overhaul. And that is the reason, we assume for world-wide
popularity of penetrating oils and rust looseners.

Smart engineers need not do the assemblies the old way now. Molykote®, the 50 year
old brand with perhaps the strongest pedigree when it comes to maintenance product,
and with the most solid fundamental research in the field of solid lubricants and its use
in assembly applications, has two products that would be useful in over 90% of the
assemblies that happens in either the field or the workshops.

As the illustrations and pictures show, whether it is assembly of a fastener or any other
component that is press-fitted, application of assembly aids like Molykote® G Rapid
Spray or Molykote® 1000 Anti-seize sprays are important to ensure dis-assembly after
long periods are easy. In addition to smooth assembly and subsequent dis-assembly,
the products from Molykote® also help in the following ways:

Molykote 1000 Anti-seize spray ensure correct torque tension ensuring uniform
clamping. There is no loss of force due to dissipation caused by friction. With a co-
efficient of friction in the range of oiled bolts, Molykote 1000 prevents seizure of
fasteners at temperatures operating at temperatures beyond 600 degree C also.
Available in 400 ml imported cans from France, the product is a real value for money
for the function it serves. It saves time, allows non-destructive dismantling of
expensive fasteners, ensures uniform torque, and is effective even after repeated
assemblies and dis-assembly operations.

Molykote® 1000 is used whether high temperatures prevail or otherwise. The product
apart from the industry’s most popular use on turbine studs is also used during
assemblies of all threaded components in gear boxes, engines, valves, etc that must be
protection from fretting, corrosion, galling, and seizures.

Molykote® G Rapid Spray: Based on Mos2 and other solid lubricants, Molykote G-
Rapid spray exhibits a co-efficient of friction of 0.04µ without the need for rubbing-in
or burnishing. Just sprayed onto the components meant for press-fit, it prevents
scuffing and scoring and allows for a smooth press-fit. During operation, it forms a
thin separating film between the components which prevents fretting. This allows the
component to be easily disassembled after long periods. The load carrying capacity of
the product and pressure absorption is exceptionally good.

Technical Advantages include :Very low co-efficient of friction; Prevents fretting and
scoring; Suppresses stick-slip; Emergency running properties when grease or oil run
low; Easy non-destructive dismantling after long periods; Excellent surface coverage.
 The Application Areas include: Press-fit of bearings, keyways, splined shafts, etc; Steam
Joints, hinges, etc; Boiler Mountings; All high temperature threaded connections upto
450 deg C; Turbine Pedestal Gibs; Chains operating in high temperature areas;
Couplings, Valve bonnets, etc

With the use of Molykote® G Rapid Spray, you save time, prevent scuffing and
scoring of shafts during assembly and dis-assembly and avoid the use of expensive
metal repair putties.

Corrosion Protection Sprays

Dry Wax Film
When components have a lead time before re-assembly or
finished parts are kept in storage for long periods, especially
T

Coatings
when they are in the open environments exposed to fumes,
T

salinity and industrial contaminants, they have to be protected against corrosion.

Molykote Metal
T
Molykote® Metal Protector Plus, is as the name suggests, used
Protector Plus for protection of all kinds of metals against corrosion and rust,
T

when stored in damp, wet or saline environments. Once sprayed

onto the component, the product forms a dry waxy clear film
that allows visibility of part numbers and other identification marks, but forms a
durable corrosion protection film that has a very high salt spray resistance. Once a
component is sprayed, it can be stored for over a year in the open without any
corrosion development. More ever, when the parts or components need to be
assembled, the coating need not be removed as it is compatible with most metals and
lubricants that will come in contact with the components in operation. Available in 400
ml spray cans, for easy and quick application in hard to reach areas with its extension
tube.

Molykote Zinc
T Molykote® L-0500 Zinc Coating Spray is one of the most
Coating Spray T
popular Molykote products for protection of galvanized surfaces
which have got damaged due to any reason. It is also used for
junction boxes, cable trays, structural equipments and provides a cold galvanizing
coating with one spray application. Proven in the most saline of atmospheres, pure
99% zinc based spray, is very cost-effective method to protect expensive and not so
expensive electrical equipments in the switchyards and utilities.

ICC Clear T When it comes to sensitive electrical and electronic

Polyurethane devices, PCBs, electrical panels, motor casings, etc,
Coating T
there is ICC’s Polyurethane Clear Coating which
forms a durable clear film over the components
with good electrical properties and excellent protection against rust and
corrosion. 500 ml spray can.

Repair and Detection Sprays
The products in this category include specialty like dye Penetrant kits, on-line leak
repair of cables, and products used during repairs and overhauls of major equipments.

Permatex® in a way taught the world about gasketing. So we start with the brand and
its products used for repairs, but limited to those available in quick to use spray cans.

Permatex® Form-A-Seal Leak Repair 6 oz Aerosol Can. Forms a durable

rubber barrier that stops leaks in minutes without part removal. The sprayable
sealer eliminates the need for liquid additive sealers and is resistant to common
shop fluids. Used for engine and transmission leaks, cooling systems, etc. Part #
82096. In industry, you can find application in cables, flanges for on-line repairs of
oil-leakages, and other rubber components that are developing cracks as a filler
material.
Permatex® Gasket Remover 16 oz Aerosol Can. Removes gaskets from any type
of assembly in 10-12 minutes. Reduces scrapping and sanding. Prevents damage to
flanges. Also cleans surface of oil, grease, adhesives and sealants for preparing for
new gasketing. Part # 80646

Both the above are examples of specialty repair products that, if made part of an
Engineer’s maintenance kit can help simplify jobs in the field.

Also, in this mailer, for the sake of comprehensiveness is included a range of aerosol
products that is extremely critical for quality. The dye-Penetrant kit. With all major
turbine overhauls, engine components, or critical components like twist locks in
container handling, to hinges and latches exposed to extremes of conditions where
early detection can avoid failures, now using the DPT kit as it is popularly known, we
decide to include the same here.

As distributors for world’s leading brand, Magnaflux® which has the most complete
range of dye Penetrant kits, equipments and accessories, and supplying to most of the
leading quality testing and quality conscious organizations, we take this opportunity to
list here that Magnaflux® Cleaner, Magnaflux® Developer and Magnaflux® Penetrant
are available with us in 400 ml spray cans.

For people aware of the brand or having past experience, Magnaflux® symbolizes the
best in quality, justifying the need for a 10-15% premium over other brands if DPT
kits. With its higher coverage area, certifications from ISO, conformance to all major
specifications, its use in the general industry is likely to grow, when prevention of
failure can not be an option, it is a must.
Spray Products Available for Lubrication

Chains Molykote® MKLn is a mineral oil chain grease with solid

lubricants dispersed in a safe, non-toxic and non-flammable
solvent which assists penetration into critical areas such as link
pins. The product provides long-term chain lubrication and reduces friction and wear,
operating noise and increases the service life of the chains. Molykote Mkln has
excellent adhesion after evaporation of the solvent with a viscosity over 4000 cst,
excellent temperature resistance with over 160 degree C and is resistant to hot and cold
water. The product is used for high-speed chains and precision chains of all sizes. The
aerosol version contains environmentally safe propellant in a 400 ml spray can.

Open Gears Molykote® 1122 is a synthetic grease designed for open gears
including slewing rings with extreme tackiness to prevent run-
off from the mating areas of the drive and pinion. With
complete resistance to steam, hot water and cold water, and high temperature
resistance, the product can be used for most open gears working in difficult
environments. The synthetic base helps in improved lubricity, the tackifier additives
prevents fling-off and the solid lubricants has a very high load handling capacity. With
the availability in 400 ml sprayable cans the product is a very convenient way to
lubricate open gears, chains, and wire ropes in extreme conditions.

Wire Ropes Wire ropes must be protected from wear and corrosion in open
environments. The strands and core must be protected against
premature failure with proper lubrication, to prevent corrosion,
rope breakage and extend relubrication intervals. The ideal wire rope lubricant must be
adhesive, have high load bearing capacity, resistant to moisture and water, and
penetration abilities. Molykote S-0104 available in 400 ml spray cans has all these
qualifications as an ideal wire rope lubricant for hoist wire ropes, cranes,etc.

For food and beverages industry, Molykote® has general purpose food grade lubricant
spray. Information and data sheet available upon request.

 Special Products

There are certain products that are difficult to be classified into one group or
other. Two such products find mention here. One of them is the world’s leading brand of non-
hardening sealants developed by Rolls Royce for sealing of metal to metal joints where oil
resistance is required in aero-derivative gas turbines, and the other product is a dry lubricant spray
that works in the most extremes of conditions and hence finds mention in this special products
section.

Hylomar Universal Blue: Many often you will find flange

leakages in transformers. Happens because either the alignment is
not ok, correct torque is not applied across the flange and many a
times due to the poor quality of gasket. Hylomar Universal Blue
when sprayed over the gasket as a dressing material, prevents
degradation of the gasket and eliminates oil leakage. As it does not
build thickness but merely covers up the asperities, there is no
concern on the design side.

Comes in 340 grams spray can.

Molykote® 321R anti-friction coating spray air dries in about 5 minutes to form a film of solid
lubricant providing dry lubrication in dusty environment. Does not attract contaminants. Low co-
efficient of friction and high load carrying capacity.

Application areas for the product includes:

¾ Dry lubrication of valve stems in dust contamination areas for easy twisting
¾ Lubrication of chains and lead screws in dusty environment
¾ Running in lubrication of newly machined gears
¾ Instruments operating in vacuum or near radiation environments
¾ Aircraft engines for air foil lubrication
¾ Cylinder head bolts in diesel engines (temp. resistance 450 degree C+)
¾ Cutting tools like broaches, gear cutters, drills, reamers, etc
¾ Lubricating sliding surfaces in furnace car bearings
¾ Lubricating circuit breaker components inaccessible for further lubrication

This sums up the current mailer on aerosol quick maintenance products. Just to remind you once
more, that aerosol products are meant for quick maintenance applications. There is no rocket
science involved. Look for the right product, make sure it is priced right, comes with some
pedigree and serves the function for which it is bought.
