Spanjaard silicone Paste is a non-drying, food-grade silicone-based lubricating compound supplied in paste form for controlled manual application. It provides a smooth application experience with high surface adherence and consistent film formation, allowing operators to apply a precise amount without dripping or migration. The paste texture supports clean handling, stable coverage, and reliable performance on components requiring long-term lubrication and protection in environments where incidental food contact may occur. All raw materials used in the manufacture of the product comply with FDA section 21 CFR 178.3570. 

• Electrical Insulation - The Spanjaard Silicone Paste exhibits high dielectric performance, with a typical dielectric strength above 15 kV per mm. Volume resistivity exceeds 1 × 10¹⁴ ohm·cm, ensuring effective electrical insulation when applied to non-current-carrying components. This electrical stability remains consistent across a wide operating temperature range, supporting safe use near electrical assemblies.

  
  

• Moisture Resistance - The formulation provides strong water and moisture displacement, with water repellency maintained after prolonged exposure. Silicone film integrity remains stable at relative humidity levels above 90 percent, preventing moisture ingress at contact interfaces. This characteristic supports corrosion control and surface protection in damp or washdown environments.

  
  

• Thermal Stability - The silicone base maintains physical stability over a typical service temperature range of approximately -40 °C to +200 °C. Consistency and lubricating performance remain within controlled limits without melting, hardening, or separation. This thermal resistance allows continuous lubrication under fluctuating thermal conditions.

  
  

• Food Grade Compliance - The paste complies with NSF H1 requirements for incidental food contact and meets FDA 21 CFR 178.3570 guidelines. The formulation contains no volatile solvents and remains non-drying, supporting long service intervals without reapplication. This regulatory compliance supports controlled use in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical equipment.

• Plastic Gears - The Spanjaard Silicone Paste is applied to plastic gear teeth to reduce friction and wear during continuous operation. Its high film strength supports smooth meshing without attacking polymer materials. This helps maintain dimensional stability and consistent torque transmission in low- to medium-load gear systems.

  
  

• Sliding Mechanisms - Used on linear slides to ensure controlled movement and reduce surface friction. The paste adheres to guide surfaces without dripping, maintaining a stable lubricating layer. This supports smooth motion and reduced noise during repeated cycles.

  
  

• Rails - Applied to guide rails where stable lubrication is required without oil migration. The non-drying silicone layer maintains consistent surface coverage. This supports predictable motion and reduced maintenance frequency.

  
  

• O-Rings - The paste is used to lubricate elastomer O-rings during assembly and operation. Volume compatibility with common elastomers remains within controlled limits, supporting sealing integrity. This reduces assembly damage and improves long-term sealing performance.

  
  

• Seals - Applied to static and dynamic seals to reduce friction and prevent surface sticking. The silicone layer maintains elasticity of sealing materials without chemical interaction. This supports consistent sealing force and reduced wear.

  
  

• Valves - Used on valve components to support smooth actuation and surface protection. The paste maintains lubricity under pressure and temperature variation. This helps ensure consistent valve response and reduced actuation resistance.

  
  

• Gaskets - Applied to gasket surfaces to improve installation and sealing performance. The Spanjaard Silicone Paste provides controlled slip without migration beyond the contact area. This supports uniform compression and long-term sealing stability.

  
  

• Plastic Components - Used on molded plastic parts to reduce assembly friction and surface abrasion. The silicone film remains stable without staining or residue transfer. This supports clean operation and extended component service life.
