LPS LPS00116 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will LPS 1 lubricant attract dust on door hinges and lock mechanisms?
No, and that's the point of it. LPS 1 dries to a thin film about 5 microns thick rather than staying wet, so there's no oily surface left to collect dust and dirt. That's what makes it usable on hinges, locks and sliding mechanisms in dusty or high-traffic buildings where a wet oil would turn into grinding paste. If you want something that stays wet and clings for heavy loads, this is the wrong choice.
2) Is LPS 1 safe to spray on live electrical gear like circuit breakers and relays?
LPS 1 is nonconductive, with a dielectric strength of 32 kv tested to ASTM D-877, and it is called out for circuit breakers, relays, switch gears, electric motors, generators, ignition systems and electronic connectors. Note the flash point is 175 degrees F (TCC), so it goes on de-energized equipment and gets time to flash off before power is restored.
3) Will LPS 1 free a rusted or seized bolt, or do I need a dedicated penetrant?
LPS 1 does loosen rusted and frozen parts and is a fast-acting penetrant, so it will handle seized nuts and bolts and stuck lock cylinders. Where it stops short is long-term protection: the corrosion barrier it leaves is short term and light, so on outdoor or exposed hardware you break loose with it, follow up with a heavier film product rather than leaving LPS 1 as the final coating.
4) How big is the LPS 00116 can and can it spray upside down?
It's an 11 oz (312 gram) aerosol with an Inverta spray valve, so it sprays inverted. That matters when you're lubricating a door closer arm, an overhead track or a breaker panel above your head and can't turn the can upright. Delivery is a mist spray.
5) Will LPS 1 damage painted doors, powder-coated frames or plastic parts?
It's safe on paint and most plastics, which is why it gets used on finished door hardware, painted panel gear and delicate mechanisms without stripping or clouding the surface around them. "Most plastics" is not "all" though, so on an unusual plastic try a hidden spot first.
6) Can LPS 1 be used in a food processing plant?
LPS 1 is acceptable for use in Canadian food processing establishments. It's also used worldwide in aviation, which is the other place this formula shows up in institutional MRO work. For a US facility, check the specific approval your plant's program requires before putting it on the line.
7) Will LPS 1 still work on exterior door hardware in freezing weather?
Pour point is -50 degrees F (-46 degrees C), so the fluid stays mobile well below anything a North American exterior opening sees. Handy for gate hardware, exit device latches and padlocks that stiffen up in winter. The propellant is carbon dioxide, so can pressure is less temperature-sensitive than a hydrocarbon-propelled aerosol.
8) What is the correct part number for LPS 1 greaseless lubricant in the 11 oz can?
Order it as LPS 00116, manufacturer part number 51100. It's the LPS 1 Greaseless Lubricant in the 11 oz aerosol, and the can is a clear straw-colored liquid going on. There is one configuration, so there is no size or variant to choose beyond that.
9) What is the HMIS rating on LPS 1 aerosol for our facility's chemical program?
HMIS is 1, 2, 0 (health, flammability, physical hazard) and the flash point is 175 degrees F by TCC. That flammability 2 plus an aerosol format is what drives storage and handling requirements in most facility programs, so file it with your flammable aerosols rather than general shop supplies.
10) Can I use LPS 1 on precision tools and gears, or is it too light?
Light is the design intent. The dry 5 micron film suits micrometers, precision open gears, power tools, molds and cables, where a heavy grease would drag or trap grit. For a loaded gearbox or a high-pressure sliding contact under real load, a light dry film is not the right product class.
