Crouse-Hinds STL8 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will Crouse-Hinds STL8 lubricant hold up on conduit runs in an unheated warehouse or on a rooftop?
It stays effective and stable from -20 degrees F to +300 degrees F, so an unconditioned warehouse, a rooftop run baked by the sun, or a winter exterior install are all inside its stated range. That upper figure also covers joints near heat-producing equipment.
2) Is Crouse-Hinds STL8 acceptable for a code-compliant electrical installation?
The STL8 thread lubricant is built to NEC/CEC standards, so it can go on threaded conduit and fitting joints on work inspected to either code, in the US or in Canada.
3) What is screw thread lubricant used for on a conduit installation?
It goes on the threads of rigid and intermediate metal conduit, couplings and threaded fittings before they are made up, so the joint pulls up tight without galling or seizing and can be broken loose later for service. The STL8 is a general electrical thread compound for panel work, conduit assembly, industrial equipment terminations and MRO, in ordinary locations.
