Permatex 22058 Dielectric Tune-Up Grease, 3oz. – High Performance Dielectric Grease Used To Protect Terminals, Spark Plugs, Wiring And Other Electrical Connections Against Salt, Dirt, And Corrosion

Real unadulterated silicone grease. The good stuff!
The real thing with no additives or ‘stretchers’ like teflon or petroleum (OK for some uses, but not for many). The good stuff for electrical, high voltage, Brake and Hi-Temp machinery, O-ring lubricant, syringes, pumps, valves, etc.This is a fairly priced commodity used by most industrial businesses and also has many DIY applications.I wrote this review because finding the pure thing on the net can be difficult. It’s common to receive mixtures sold as sold as “silicone grease” that just won’t do the job. (you cannot use petroleum around oxidizers, some melt, some contaminate systems or attack some rubber compounds etc) so I decided to make life a bit easier for those of you looking for real silicone grease. (for auto brakes, it isn’t critical and there are many good brake lubes out there (I like the Permatex 21425 ceramic stuff in the purple jar), but you can use this for most applications involving heat, aggressive chemicals and electricity. Applications Include: Bulb sockets, connectors, plug wires and boots, hydraulic valve o-rings, use on threads and electrical connectors in the salt/rust belt so your connectors and flare nuts rust more slowly, You can wipe a film on car window gaskets (NOT on the wipers in the door), to keep the windows from freezing shut, put some on the key and work into locks for the same effect, Lubes and protects from corrosion mechanical control cables (wipe on inner cable before installing in sheath), I’ve even used it on the closures for high power rocket engines – Dr Rocket and homebrew motors (pure silicone is the only grease safe to use with oxidizers like N2O), and it’s foodsafe so OK to use for homebrewing equipment valves etc. (the other kind). Anyway, if you need real silicone grease, you know all this. The Dow Corning “High Vacuum Grease” in the white and green tube is the same stuff, also highly recommended but usually is more expensive.Sorry to run on over grease. Buy it!

Great bargain; many uses
This is 3 oz of silicone grease (dielectric grease). I paid around $8 and the ad showed a package with Japanese writing on it. Who cares? The same product with English labeling in the ad was twice the price. Ended up receiving the latter anyways.For comparison, a half-ounce tube of Danco Grease is $4. Good stuff and a good applicator tip, but pricey. I use this for protecting electrical connections on automotive wiring and soldered joints before wrapping them in heat shrink tubing. I also use this for lubricating my o-rings on scuba gear and underwater flashlights. Not a bad idea for your home flashlights if you do any camping and risk exposure to rain, too. Silicone grease is also sold for plumbing applications (faucet grease), but that application only sees very occasional use. This is not high-temp lube and will burn if you get it super hot. So don’t be applying it to your sparkplug threads–modern plugs don’t even require lube or “anti-seize” anymore. But it’s also great to apply to your car’s battery terminal connectors, inside and out, to prevent corrosion that’s accelerated by atmospheric humidity.Yes, it is likely that I will never need to buy another tube of silicone/dielectric grease again. Others have complained that the caps are prone to breakage, thus rendering these tubes useless without a cap. Even if the cap quality is defective, I see no reason why a replacement cap can’t be easily located (even from a tube of toothpaste, perhaps!). It’s not like they’re using proprietary threading on the tube neck… So cap breakage is not really a concern to me. That said, for the Average Joe, this tube could last a lifetime. Your offspring will be delighted to receive a half tube of this grease when you pass.Another complaint is that it’s difficult to apply with the toothpaste-tube shaped nozzle instead of a pointed applicator nozzle. Big deal. For electrical connections you can use a toothpick or your fingers. For o-rings I use my fingers. For plumbing applications you’re probably going to slather it on anyways and clean up the excess. Would a pointed tube be better? Sure. Is it essential? No. Could you probably locate one if you really wanted it? Probably.This stuff is translucent in bulk, but is essentially transparent at the thicknesses typically used.Good stuff. Fraction of the price of my other favorite little tubes of Danco, and will last a looong time if you’re not a plumber or are prone to giving up on life if a little plastic cap breaks!
