ECCOSHIELD^® SO is a conductive grease that is effective in lubricating moving surfaces that must be electrically conductive.  A film of ECCOSHIELD^® SO will protect metal surfaces from corrosion. 

ECCOSHIELD^® SO is applied as a thin film to cleaned joints or contacts and has been used successfully in the hinge joint of knife blade switches and certain circuit breakers and as a lubricant directly on switch contacts.  Lubricants for large metal-to-metal sliding contacts which require continuous electrical conductive paths, grounding of enclosures, equipment and components which require lubrication to overcome friction as well as electromagnetic-interference control are common. 

Applying ECCOSHIELD^® SO on screw threads will lubricate them for easy assembly or removal and assure excellent electrical contact.  ECCOSHIELD^® SO has been used successfully in heat transfer applications; a thin film will often eliminate the “air gap” between adjacent surfaces and produce a heat transfer path equivalent to that of solid metal.
