Health, Safety, and Environmental Awareness
Please see the 8464 Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for greater details on transportation, storage, handling
and other security guidelines.
Environmental Impact: The VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) content is 30%. The product is classified
as a marine pollutant.
Health and Safety: Wear safety glasses and disposable gloves to avoid exposures.
Approximate HMIS and NFPA Risk Ratings Legend:
0 (Low or none); 1 (Slight); 2 (Moderate); 3 (Serious); 4 (Severe)
Application Instructions
The conductive paste performance depends on mainly on surface preparation. Improperly prepared
contact surfaces can degrade the pastes’ stability, conductivity, and lubrication characteristics. While the
thickness and coverage are also important, the application method itself can easily be adjusted according
to performance and application needs.
Prerequisites
Wear gloves and protective clothing (See 8464 SDS). This product is messy.
Clean and dry the surface of the substrate to remove other oils and greases, as well as dust, water,
solvents, or any other contaminants
Recommendation: Use MG 824 Isopropyl Alcohol
Equipment
Lint free cloth (for cleaning contact and for wiping excess residue)
Spatula or stick application tools (sized appropriately for your application)
Isopropyl alcohol or other residue-free organic solvents
NOTE: Avoid oil-based cleaners (like WD-40) that are designed to leave a film on the metal surface.
Contaminant oil or grease films may act like barriers reducing the electrical contact between the
conductive paste and the metallic substrate.
To apply the grease
1. Wipe the surface with a lint-free cloth.
2. Clean the surface with isopropyl alcohol or other non-oil based cleaner.
3. Once dry, dispense grease onto the surface.
