Greasing Connectors

Best practices for assembling your system

Greasing the Connector/Dummy Plug (ABOVE WATER - DRY MATE ONLY)

  1. 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.

  2. A layer of grease corresponding to minimum 1/10 of socket depth should be applied to the female connector

  3. 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

  4. After greasing, fully mate the male and female connector in order to secure optimal distribution of grease on pins and in sockets

  5. To confirm that grease has been sufficiently applied, de-mate and check for grease on every male pin then re-mate the connector
