제품 개요

LOCTITE LB 8008 C5-A is a premium anti-seize lubricant paste featuring copper and graphite fillers suspended in a high-quality grease base. It is designed to protect threaded fasteners, studs, flanges and other metal assemblies from seizing, galling, rust and corrosion under high temperature or heavy load conditions. Its service temperature extends up to approximately 980 °C (1800 °F). 
It is ideal for maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) as well as OEM production environments where assemblies may need to be disassembled later under difficult conditions.

주요 특징 및 장점

  • Copper + graphite fortified paste: Provides excellent lubricity and high-temperature protection.

  • Very high operating temperature: Capable of resisting up to ~980 °C / ~1800 °F in dry service.

  • Prevents galling and seizing: Helps ensure that metal parts (threads, flanges, bolts) remain serviceable and easier to dismantle.

  • Multi-substrate compatible: Use on steel, stainless steel, aluminium alloys, brass, cast iron and many other metal combinations.

  • Improves bolt/clamp load uniformity: Reduces torque coefficient (k-factor) for more predictable clamping for threaded assemblies.

애플리케이션

  1. 표면 처리: Clean mating surfaces (threads, flanges, studs) of heavy oil, scale or debris. Use a suitable degreaser or wire brush if needed.

  2. 애플리케이션: Apply a thin, even coat of LOCTITE LB 8008 C5-A to the threads, flanges or contact surfaces. For bolts, brush a 360° band around the male threads and into the root of the thread.

  3. 조립: Thread the coated fastener or component into the mating part. For best performance, consider backing off and re-assembling once to ensure even coverage.

  4. Service Conditions: Once assembled, the coated joint is protected against seizing, galling and rust—even under high temperature and heavy loads.

  5. Maintenance / Disassembly: When dismantling is required, the anti-seize treatment will help parts come apart more easily, reducing risk of damage or breakage.
    팁:

  • Use the anti-seize only on clean metal surfaces—contaminants reduce effectiveness.

  • For critical assemblies, document torque and clamping values as the treatment will affect torque coefficient (k-factor).

  • This product is designed for dry service; if exposure to oxidising chemicals or pure oxygen is expected, verify suitability.

자주 묻는 질문

Q1: Can LOCTITE LB 8008 C5-A be used on plastic or non-metallic parts?
A1: While the product is primarily designed for metal assemblies, data indicates compatibility with some non-metallic gasketing materials. However, ensure substrate compatibility before use. 
Q2: What happens if the assembly is in a pure oxygen environment?
A2: 해당 제품은 not recommended for use in pure oxygen or oxygen-rich systems; alternative products should be used. 
Q3: How does the product affect torqueing of bolts?
A3: The presence of the anti-seize reduces the effective torque coefficient (k-factor), meaning that for a given torque you may get higher clamp load. Testing is recommended for critical assemblies. 
Q4: What is the maximum temperature limit for this product?
A4: It is rated for service up to approximately 980 °C (1800 °F) in dry conditions. Consult TDS for specific limits under different conditions. 
Q5: Do I need to remove old coatings or rust before applying?
A5: Yes—cleaning to remove rust, paint or heavy oxidation is recommended to ensure best performance of the anti-seize paste.
