Lubricants
Do NOT use Vaseline, oils, hydrocarbon lubricants or spray silicone anywhere! Petroleum base lubricants will cause
swelling of o-rings and seals. The use of other lubricants may attack plastic Noryl®. It is recommended that Dow
Corning® silicone grease be used as a lubricant for all control valves. Dow Corning® 7 Release Compound is used in
the manufacture of Chandler Systems control valves. (Part # LT-150)

Pipe dope and liquid thread sealers may contain a carrier that attacks some plastic materials. It is recommended that
Teon® tape be used to seal plastic Noryl® threaded ttings.
