Product Information

g. a spade or bullet connection) then using a conductive grease will probably bridge one or more pins, therefore creating a electrical pathway across pins that were not meant to be connected, previously separated by an air gap or maybe insulation; this ‘shorting’ of a connector would be the probable outcome, especially if the connector was a multipin unshielded/open-faced connector but also an expected outcome of trying to apply a conductive grease to any or all pins in a shielded multipin connector. That’s why understanding the best rework and repair methods and materials is so important for those who manufacture, maintain, or repair printed circuit boar. It is non-conductive but works by excluding oxygen from the contact area, preventing oxidation and so, maintaining good connection. It lubricates, reduces contact resistance, repels moisture, prevents static buildup and it is a powerful corrosion inhibitor. A conductive grease is never recommended to fix an electrical connector problem; a dielectric grease is always the best choice when choosing an electrical connector grease.

Also ‘electrical contact cleaner’ is very good for cleaning anything that needs a good contact – I won’t be without it. If the connector to be dosed with grease is anything but the most simplistic connector (such as a spade connector), the grease application method will end up being far too intricate and the possibility of introducing a fault will be too hight.It serves a similar purpose in treadmills, where the rubber belt can generate static electricity which makes its way to the bearing.

The conductive grease is produced with a temperature stable silicone oil for you to improve the electrical connections between your sliding surfaces. In the end I purchased it and, after cleaning with alchohol, applied a tiny amount with a cotton bud to all the battery contacts of my remote controlllers that use button cell batteries. NyoGel® 756G relies on a proprietary carbon filler, rather than traditional metallic particles, for conductivity.

It depends on what the seal is made from, certain kinds of lubricants will damage certain kinds of seal materials. Small applications of synthetic grease are very important throughout a modern vehicle and the interior is no different.It’s understandable that an engineer or hobbyist could see a conductive grease as a quick fix for a badly worn or corroded connector and maybe if the connector/connection is a simple spade or bullet connector, a conductive grease could work, but this is the rare exception rather than the recommendation or rule.
