Dupont 0130685 Anti-seize Lubricant 42 Lb Pail

Product Description

The DUPONT 0130685 is a copper-base extreme pressure anti-seize lubricant supplied in a 42-pound pail. Marketed under the Never-Seez trade name, this compound prevents galling, seizing, and corrosion on threaded fasteners, flanges, and fittings exposed to high heat or harsh environments. The copper composition gives it an operating range of -297 degrees F to 1,800 degrees F, making it appropriate for high-temperature piping systems, exhaust hardware, and industrial machinery. The water-resistant formulation maintains protection in wet or outdoor service conditions. Plumbers, pipefitters, millwrights, and HVAC technicians rely on this compound when assembling connections that must be removable after long service at elevated temperatures.

This anti-seize compound is used in residential and commercial applications wherever threaded or flanged connections are subject to heat, vibration, or corrosive exposure. Typical install scenarios include steam piping flanges, boiler fittings, exhaust manifold studs, pump housings, and heavy-duty valve stems. The 42-pound pail format is suited for shop use, fleet maintenance facilities, and job sites where high-volume application is routine. It is not a food-grade product and is not rated for nuclear-grade service.

Key Features

• Copper-base composition provides extreme pressure protection and conductivity across the full temperature range
• Operating range of -297 degrees F to 1,800 degrees F suits high-heat and cryogenic adjacent applications
• Water-resistant formulation resists washout in wet or outdoor service conditions
• Silver-gray color allows visual verification of coverage on mating surfaces
• 42-pound pail format reduces restocking frequency in high-volume service environments
• Non-food-grade; compatible with standard industrial and mechanical trade applications

Compatibility

Designed for use on threaded fasteners, flanges, fittings, and sliding surfaces in industrial, commercial, and mechanical service applications where extreme pressure and wide temperature range performance are required.

Installation Notes

Apply using a brush, paddle, or lint-free applicator to clean, dry mating surfaces before assembly. Ensure fittings and fasteners are free of existing rust, scale, or old compound before applying a fresh coat. Follow applicable codes such as ASME or IFGC when making connections on gas or pressure piping. Store the pail sealed when not in use to prevent solvent evaporation and compound hardening.
