Tikal Tef-Gel Anti-Corrosion Paste
- Prevents galvanic corrosion
- Very easy to use
- Protects aluminum
Tikal Tef-Gel (TK-TG10) protects from galvanic corrosion between different precious metals, like for example with threaded joints between stainless steel and aluminium and thereby stops the blossoming of the aluminium. Ideal for applications where different metals come together, such as stainless steel fittings on an aluminium mast.
The 40% PTFE in the screw paste functions as lubricant and insulator. Because Tef-Gel does not dry out, nuts can still be removed without problems even years later. As a result, the product provides an impermeable layer that prevents (sea) water from forming a galvanic cell.
Applications
- Prevents corrosion of screws in aluminium.
- Protects pop rivets and bolt/nut connections.
- Suitable for stainless steel, Inconel and other nickel-containing metals.
Benefits of Tikal Tef-Gel
- UV-resistant lubricant.
- Protects against galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals.
- Seawater-resistant lubricant.
- More environmentally friendly than comparable products.
Instructions for use
- Use a small brush or plastic spatula to apply a thin layer of Tef-Gel between both metals and in the drill holes.
- Also apply the screw paste to the bolts, nuts or rivets.
- Then mount the hardware.
- Wipe off any excess paste with turpentine or WD-40.
