Which DeoxIT® Product do I Use
  • Use DeoxIT® Fader F-Series to lubricate and protect conductive plastic and carbon-based controls.
  • Use DeoxIT® D-Series contact cleaner on surfaces that have been in service or have visual signs of oxidation. Contains 20% active cleaner.
  • Use DeoxIT® Gold G-Series conditioner on new surfaces, and gold plated surfaces. Ideal for preventing dendrite/fretting corrosion. Protects both surface and base metals. Ideal for critical applications. Contains >1% active cleaner.
  • Use DeoxIT® Shield S-Series to protect surfaces from severe environments (humidity, salts, pollutants, sulfur, etc.). Use on clean surface. Contains 0% active cleaner.
Directions for Use

1. Turn o_x001e_, unplug the device.
2. DeoxIT® Fader F-Series is for conductive plastic materials; however, there may be metal materials involved with the contact or control. On these metal surfaces that have been in service or have visual signs of oxidation or corrosion pre-treat with DeoxIT® D-Series (D5S-6) contact cleaner. See Data Sheet DS-D5S-6 and Audio/Video 9-1-1 Information Sheet.
3. DeoxIT® Fader 100% should be applied to clean conductive plastic surfaces. If surface has contamination (dust, dirt, drink spills, etc.), pre-clean with an air duster (http://store.caig.com/s.nl/sc.2/category.189/.f ) or DeoxIT® Fader F5S-H6.
4. Once clean, apply a small amount of DeoxIT® Fader onto the plastic surface.
5. Operate the part/device to help distribute the DeoxIT® in the control or contact area.
6. Wait a few seconds, reapply another small amount.
7. Wait two minutes before turning on equipment.
8. For extended protection: For additional lubrication and/or more tactile feel, apply DeoxIT® FaderGrease onto plastic surfaces
9. NOTES: Test for compatibility before use. To prevent overspray or spraying in unwanted areas, you can always spray onto a lint-free swab or cloth _x001d_rst and then using the swab/cloth apply the DeoxIT® to the control/connector/contact surface(s).
10. Bulk Bottles: For production applications. Contact CAIG for information.
11. NOTE: For Field Service use, see Bulletin “Field Service 9-1-1” For Manufacturing/OEMs see Bulletin “Manufactruing/OEM 9-1-1”

Technical Details & Test Data

Materials Compatibility

(Rating: Not compatible, Poor, Fair, Good, Excellent), (N/A = Not applicable (no solvents and propellants)
(* If the product is not 100% DeoxIT® then the package is rated before and after the solvents/propellants are applied to materials. Compatibility testing is always recommended)

Material Name Rating (*100% DeoxIT®)
Rating (*with solvents)
ABS Excellent N/A
Nylon Excellent N/A
Lexan Excellent N/A
HDPE Excellent N/A
LDPE Good N/A

Important:
Rating, 100% DeoxIT®: Any of the above that fall into the “Fair” and “Poor” categories should be thoroughly tested for compatibility. They may be compatible, however, it will depend on the manufacturing process of the materials. Acrylics, ABS, and polycarbonate, if under stress, may show slight cracking or crazing damage. Test for compatibility before use. On porous materials; i.e. wood, rubber, cloth, some phenolics, semi-cured materials, no liquid or solvents should be used. Occasionally, DeoxIT® will get onto unwanted surfaces, quickly wipe o_x001e_ surface and usually no damage will occur.
