Heat Sink Compounds
Bond heat sinks to surfaces, eliminating air gaps for maximum heat transfer. These compounds are commonly used with transistors, diodes, rectifiers, and transformers. Product regulations restrict sales to the listed jurisdictions/areas.
Zinc-oxide compounds create a more secure bond than silicone compounds.

Non-Bonding Heat Transfer Compounds
Also known as thermal paste, these boron-nitride compounds increase heat transfer between parts while preventing them from sticking. Unlike antiseize compounds, they don't conduct electricity, so you won't risk shorting out sensitive electronics. They're often used on thermocouple probes to improve accuracy. You can also use them in 3D printer heating blocks and other high-temperature areas to keep parts from fusing together.

Electrically Conductive Antiseize Lubricants
Copper allows these lubricants to conduct electricity, while graphite gives them good chemical and corrosion resistance. Also known as thread lubricants, antiseize lubricants prevent threaded fasteners and close-fitting parts from locking together due to corrosion, contamination, or heat.
Loctite® C5-A Copper-Based Anti-Seize lubricants can be used with salt water and petroleum-based chemicals. LB 8065 comes as a stick for no-mess application.
Lubricants that meet MIL-A-907 and MIL-PRF-907 have been tested to prevent corrosion of copper and for antiseize properties when used with steel nuts and studs.
Dielectric strength measures the maximum voltage a lubricant can withstand without losing its insulating properties. The higher the dielectric strength, the better its quality as an insulator.
Electrical resistivity is a measure of how well a material opposes the flow of electricity. The lower the rating, the more electricity it conducts.

Electrical-Insulating Grease
Also known as dielectric grease, use insulating grease to lubricate and protect electrical systems. It resists water and corrosion. This grease can be used on most rubber and plastic.
NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 1 is about the consistency of tomato paste. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter. NLGI 3 is about the consistency of vegetable shortening.
Dielectric strength measures the maximum voltage a grease can withstand without losing its insulating properties. The higher the dielectric strength, the better its quality as an insulator.
Grease lubricates most efficiently below the maximum temperature. Nonmelting grease can be used at temperatures above the maximum temperature briefly, but then will break down more quickly.
Molykote 5 Compound is for use on insulators, bushings, and high-current switches.

Grease for Electrical Contacts
Lubricate, clean, deoxidize, and prevent corrosion on electrical contacts to improve their performance.
NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter.
Grease with quartz has quartz particles to assist oxide breakup. Grease with copper has copper particles to assist oxidize breakup and resist abrasion on surfaces that require conductivity. Grease with aluminum is for use on aluminum parts that won’t come in contact with each other. Grease with graphite has graphite particles to absorb and dissipate heat. Grease with only deoxidizer provides the best lubrication and is for use on clean surfaces.
Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range. Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry.

Food Industry Electrical-Insulating Grease
Use this grease in areas where there is the possibility of contact with food. Also known as dielectric grease, it lubricates and protects electrical systems. It resists water and corrosion. This grease can be used on most rubber and plastic.
NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 1 is about the consistency of tomato paste. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter. Dielectric strength measures the maximum voltage a grease can withstand without losing its insulating properties. The higher the dielectric strength, the better its quality as an insulator.
Grease that is NSF Registered H1 and grease that meets FDA Compliant 21 CFR 178.3570 are rated for incidental contact with food. Grease that meets NSF/ANSI 51 and FDA Compliant 21 CFR 175.300 are rated for direct contact with food. Grease that meets NSF/ANSI 61 is certified for use with components that come into contact with drinking water.
Grease lubricates most efficiently below the maximum temperature. Nonmelting grease can be used at temperatures above the maximum temperature briefly, but then will break down more quickly.
DuPont Molykote 4 Electrical Insulating Compound also acts as a moisture barrier.

Penetrating Lubricants for Electrical Applications
Protect electrical components—these lubricants insulate and block moisture, preventing electrical malfunctions. They cut through dirt, grease, and rust to clean connections and relays, leaving behind a thin film for long-lasting protection.
Dielectric strength measures the maximum voltage a lubricant can withstand without losing its insulating properties. The higher the dielectric strength, the better its quality as an insulator.
These lubricants cannot be sold outside of the United States due to product labeling requirements.

Conductive Liquid Gallium
A safe alternative to mercury in thermometers and thermostats, gallium transfers heat and electricity without toxic vapor that can be inhaled. Also known as Galinstan. Its low melting point means it's liquid at room temperature. When used next to parts that generate concentrated heat, it dissipates the heat quickly, making it good thermal interface material. It also allows electricity to pass throughout it, so it's often used in switches and electronics that must bend and flex.
Gallium clings to both metallic and nonmetallic surfaces such as glass and quartz. However, it eats away at most metal when used at high temperatures and dissolves aluminum even at ambient temperatures.
When choosing gallium, keep in mind its composition. The higher the gallium and indium content, the better it is at transferring heat. Gallium with tin reduces the melting point, but also decreases how well it transfers heat.
