This Heat Curing material prevents corrosion, galling, seizing, and fretting. It is a low-friction coating which exhibits long wear life when operated at -3200F to +5000F under loads exceeding 100,000 psi. 9A should be applied where maximum wear life and corrosion protection from a dry film lubricant are required. Once Sandstrom 9A has been heat cured, it is virtually unaffected by atmospheric and fretting corrosion, solvents, acids, oils, degreasers, and is not resoftened again at elevated temperatures. 9A can be applied to a wide variety of surfaces by spraying or dipping. Complete application instructions are on the reverse of this sheet. OUTSTANDING FEATURES/BENEFITS Excellent Corrosion Protection, Chemical Resistance, and Long Wear Life are its outstanding characteristics. SANDSTROM 9A CONTAINS NO GRAPHITE Use Sandstrom "099" as an alternative to 9A where low VOC and no lead is preferred. 099's performance is comparable to 9A. TYPICAL USES Sandstrom 9A is an excellent solution to the problem of lubricating parts: ? That will be operated in corrosive atmospheres ? That may be stored for long periods ? Which are seldom lubricated once they leave the factory and where permanent lubrication is desired ? Where operating pressures exceed the load-bearing capaci ties of ordinary oils and greases ? Where "clean operation" is desired (9A will not collect dirt and debris like grease and oils) ? Where a protective coating and sacrificial break-in lubricant is needed ? Where fretting and galling is a problem (such as splines, universal joints, and keyed bearings) ? Where easy release is desired (such as fasteners and PVC molds) ? Where parts may be subjected to frequent disassembly
