About MOLYKOTE® 111 Compound

OVERVIEW:

MOLYKOTE® 111 Compound is a silicone-based sealant and lubricating compound designed for sealing and lubricating a wide range of components. It provides excellent water repellency, dielectric strength, and thermal stability, making it ideal for insulating electrical components and sealing O-rings, gaskets, and valves. MOLYKOTE® 111 Compound is commonly used in electrical, industrial, marine, and food-grade applications where long-term sealing and lubrication are required.

KEY FEATURES:

Excellent Water Resistance
Forms a durable, water-repellent barrier that protects components from moisture ingress.

Good Dielectric Strength
Acts as an effective insulating compound for electrical terminals, connectors, and assemblies.

Wide Operating Temperature Range
Performs effectively from approximately -40°C to +200°C, supporting use in both high- and low-temperature environments.

Excellent Sealing and Lubricating Properties
Provides long-lasting sealing and lubrication for elastomeric and plastic components, including O-rings and gaskets.

NSF 51 & NSF 61 Certified
Suitable for use in potable water systems and food-processing equipment (check local regulations and intended use compatibility).

APPLICATIONS:

• O-Rings and Seals – Lubrication and sealing of O-rings, gaskets, and valve seals in static and dynamic applications.

• Electrical Insulation – Provides insulation and protection for electrical terminals, connectors, and assemblies.

• Valves and Fittings – Seals and lubricates valves and metal/plastic fittings in plumbing and potable water systems.

• Marine and Outdoor Equipment – Protects components exposed to moisture, salt spray, and harsh environmental conditions.

• Food-Grade and Potable Water Applications – Lubrication and sealing where NSF 51 and NSF 61 compliance is required.

PACKAGING:

MOLYKOTE® 111 Compound is typically supplied in small tubes (e.g., 100g), 1kg cans, and larger packaging formats depending on regional availability and application requirements.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:

• Surface Preparation: Clean and dry all surfaces to remove dust, oils, old lubricants, and contaminants for optimal performance.

• Application: Apply a thin, uniform layer of compound to target surfaces using a brush, cloth, or suitable applicator.

• Assembly: Install components carefully to ensure the compound is evenly distributed across sealing surfaces.

• Maintenance: Reapply as needed during scheduled maintenance or when seals/components are replaced.

SAFETY AND HANDLING:

MOLYKOTE® 111 Compound is considered safe when used under normal conditions. Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged skin exposure. Use in well-ventilated areas and follow standard industrial hygiene practices. Refer to the product’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for complete safety, handling, and disposal information.
