Contact Cleaners

RS PRO Contact Treatment Products RS PRO offers a range of contact cleaners and treatment products which have been designed to remove or prevent the build-up of oxides and other contaminants on the surface of switches, connectors and other electrical equipment. These types of cleaners can remove dirt, oil and grease from the equipment which ultimately improves the performance by preventing contact failure. RS PRO contact cleaners are suitable for electronic components, ignition points, electronic controls, and relays and designed to prolong the life span and reliability of electrical contacts by reducing arcing, wear and contact resistance. Range includes: 554-298 - Edge Connector Cleaning strip, 15 strips per card 494-758 - Contact treatment grease, 200 ml aerosol 917-5914 - Contact treatment grease, 400 ml aerosol 566-730 - Contact treatment grease, 20 ml syringe 503-335 - Contact treatment grease, 35 ml syringe RS PRO Contact Treatment Grease, 200 ml aerosol RS PRO contact treatment grease which has been designed for use on electrical contacts to increase contact performance and lifetime. Features and Benefits: Improves contact performance by making the contact area more effective Will loosen tarnish and corrosion and leave a protective film to prevent further contamination Suitable for a range of plastics and rubbers Inhibited against oxidation and copper corrosion Great penetration and cooling properties – prevents arcing meaning less contact wear Good mechanical lubrication Typical Applications This contact grease can be used on all types of electrical contacts and with most types of thermoplastics.

Ambersil Contact Cleaner The Ambersil 400ml contact cleaner is a highly effective product that improves the performance and reliability of electrical/electronic equipment. It is specifically used in the food industry to prevent contact failures or malfunctions. This is done by dissolving and rinsing away contaminants that may hold moisture and cause corrosion or arcing. It is a precision cleaning solvent blend that does not contain chlorinated solvents, alcohols, or Glycol ethers. This cleaner has a life of 72 months and can be stored at normal ambient temperatures. Make sure to keep aerosols away from the heat, naked flame, and below the temperature of 50°C. WarningNot for use on live electrical equipment. Features and Benefits Fast cleaning action Removes flux traces, light oils, and other contaminants Prolongs the life expectancy of components Non-conductive and non-corrosive Evaporates completely, leaves no residue Safe for all metal surfaces, most rubbers, plastics, and coatings Fitted with 3600 spray system for all angle use (even upside down) Specific Gravity of 0.67 at 20°C Applications PCBs Electrical contacts and switches Tape heads Electrical and electronic assemblies Relays Transistors Condensers Precision instruments Electric motors Communications equipment Certifications NSF K2 certified All industries have issues with lubricant leakage and maintenance. Production equipment needs excellent lubrication to keep machines running, so choosing the correct lubricant is crucial. The food processing and pharmaceutical industries have extra challenges with ensuring that the lubricants used resist degradation from food products, chemicals and steam/water. They must exhibit a neutral behaviour towards plastics and elastometers, have the ability to dissolve sugars and complying with current food/health a...
