O-Ring Lubricant
Greasing the Connector/Dummy Plug (ABOVE WATER - DRY MATE ONLY)
Connectors must be greased with Molykote 44 Medium (or equivalent) before every mating. Check the MSDS for your type of O-ring lubricant before use.
A layer of grease corresponding to a minimum of 1/10th of socket depth should be applied to the female connector
The inner edge of all sockets should be completely covered, and a thin transparent layer of grease left visible on the face of the connector
After greasing, fully mate the male and female connectors in order to secure optimal distribution of grease on pins and in sockets
To confirm that grease has been sufficiently applied, de-mate and check for grease on every male pin then re-mate the connector.
