CRC Lubricant Food Grade Silicone Multi-Purpose Trigger Spray 443ml

CRC Food Grade Silicone is a multi-purpose silicone lubricant supplied in a 443ml hybrid trigger pack. It is a liquid, not an aerosol, and it leaves a clear, colourless, non-hardening film that minimises corrosion and provides lubricity.

CRC lists it for food processing and handling equipment, for lubricating metal-to-non-metal and plastic-to-plastic contact areas, and as a release agent. CRC states it is harmless to most rubbers and plastics.
