Used properly ULTRA Tef-Gel is the ultimate anti-seize, anti-corrosion lubricant available to the public. Stops and prevents Galling, Seizing, and Blistering in any marine application. Use mascara brush, bottle brush, or toothbrush to apply a thin coat of Tef-Gel to both the threaded hole and the bolt threads and tighten. (Torque requirements may have to be altered according to application of thread lubricants). Whether you go to sea for work or play, protecting your floating investment from saltwater’s destructive force is critical. We recommend using PTFE based ULTRA Tef-Gel everywhere saltwater touches joining metals. ULTRA Tef-Gel is ideal for aluminum boats Channel Islands; Inflatable dinghy price on request Channel Islands; Flares not available to ship at this time

Tef-Gel applied on both surfaces and bolt or nut bolt and threaded solid leaves a film of PTFE, which prevent drill steel 18/Corrosion.

Tef -Gel ™ paste contains 40% PTFE powder and 0% volatile solvents, no silicone's or petroleum solvents to evaporate, which would leave voids for electrolytes to be drawn into creating a galvanic cell. When both surfaces are coated and mated with Tef -Gel ™ there are no voids for electrolytes (saltwater) to be drawn in by capillary action over extended periods of time. Tef-Gel is a made with a water resistant coating that prevents oxidation of metal and paste corrosion due to the flow galvaniques between different metals. Once your item has been returned, we will inspect it and take the necessary action as soon as possible. Assemble your bolted connections with TEF-GEL and every connection is easy to disconnect even after intensive use in sea water. Tef -Gel ™ is derived from a specially formulated Teflon® paste & is used in high corrosive environments to ensure serviceability & presentation of assembled hardware. ​ Tef-Gel™Applications ​Widely trusted in the marine, automotive, aviation, and aerospace industries, Tikal Tef-Gel is the go-to choice for safeguarding crucial parts from corrosion. Rest easy knowing that your valuable components are shielded from the harmful effects of moisture and corrosion. B. Bedding surfaces: A closely mating surface (10 mils .010 or closer) can be protected from capillary action by applying a thin coat of Tef -Gel ™ with brush, toothbrush, or plastic scraper and assembling the parts and cleaning excess product with mineral spirits or WD-40. The function of Tef-Gel in eliminating dissimilar metal corrosion is the elimination of electrolytes from entering the interface of the metallic surfaces. Tef-Gel paste contains 40% PTFE powder and 0% volatile solvents, no silicones or petroleum solvents to evaporate, which would leave voids for electrolytes to be drawn into creating a galvanic cell. When both surfaces are coated and mated with Tef-Gel there are no voids for electrolytes (saltwater) to be drawn in by capillary action over extended periods of time. Any items that we deem unhygienic will not be processed so please clean faulty goods if returning them.

This project should be framed as a comparison between examples from each of the two categories of greases-organic vs. synthetic. It is not a strict head-to-head test. Lanocote is derived from sheep lanoline, one of the worlds oldest greases, while polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE, aka Teflon) is a 20th century synthetic. There is a range of similarly formulated products in either category that we expect would deliver comparable results. (Forespar makes its own synthetic product, Marelube TEF 45, that would be a better match for Tef-Gel in a true head-to-head.) Lanocote

Tef-Gel applied to both mating surfaces of nuts and bolts or threaded holes and bolts leaves a layer of 40% solid PTFE within the thread interface, which works as friction barrier. Use mascara brush, bottle brush, or toothbrush to apply a thin coat of Tef -Gel ™ to both the threaded hole and the bolt threads and tighten. (Torque requirements may have to be altered according to application of thread lubricants). Tef-Gel applied to both mating surfaces of nuts and bolts or threaded holes and bolts leaves a layer of 40% solid PTFE within the thread interface, which works as friction barrier. Tef-Gel, which contains 0% volatile solvents, will no evaporate, cold flow, or dry out, giving protection many years later when hardware must be dissembled. B. Bedding surfaces: A closely mating surface (10 mils .010 or closer) can be protected from capillary action by applying a thin coat of Tef-Gel with brush, toothbrush, or plastic scraper and assembling the parts and cleaning excess product with mineral spirits or WD-40.

A small amount of galvanic tef-gel is enough to prevent the exchange of electrons and corrosion that emerges between different metals and carbon materials (aluminium, stainless steel, etc.) Tef Gel is a PTFE based waterproof lubricant with anti-corrosion and anti-seize properties. Tef Gel does not break down in salt water or detergents. Here at Eclectic, we use the highest quality marine grade material throughout, and moving parts are fitted with low-friction bearing bushes. Bottom line: PTFE synthetics have rightfully earned high marks for their anti-seize protection. Best Buy. Conclusion Tef-Gel™ must be applied liberally to all surfaces prior to assembly including threaded fasteners and flat surfaces of hardware including washers. Failure to adequately apply Tef-Gel™ will result in a reduction in protection.

However, we use Tef Gel in assembly to eliminate the risk of galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals. This brilliant American-made (as used by the US Navy!) product is difficult to find in the UK, so we decided to sell it to UK yachtsmen. Bottom line: Organic greases offer an affordable route to corrosion protection for non-moving parts. Budget Buy. Tef-Gel
