Tikal Tef-Gel Anti-Corrosion Paste
- Prevents galvanic corrosion
- Very easy to use
- Protects aluminum
Tikal Tef-Gel (TK-TG10) is a watertight, PTFE-based paste which prevents the blooming of metal and also reliably prevents corrosion from galvanic flows between unequal metals. In all places where refined metals come into contact with less refined metals (eg. aluminium with special steel), a small amount of TIKAL TEF-GEL suffices to prevent galvanic exchange of electrons and subsequent corrosion.
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 aluminum.
- 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.
- Stops galvanic corrosion between unequal metals.
- Permanent saltwater-proof lubricant.
- Very environment-friendly compared to competitors’ products.
Directions 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.
- Mount the hardware.
- Wipe off any excess paste with turpentine or WD-40.
