LPS 00216 Regular #2 Lubricant
The LPS 00116 (LPS 1) Greaseless Lubricant is a premium, light-duty industrial spray designed to provide a dry, thin lubricating film that repels dust and dirt. Unlike traditional oily lubricants, this formula penetrates the smallest crevices to displace moisture and provide short-term corrosion protection without leaving a messy residue.

LPS LPS00216 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will LPS 2 lubricant free up rusted, seized door hardware like frozen hinges and padlocks?
Loosening rusted and frozen parts is one of the stated jobs for LPS 00216 Regular #2. It sprays as a mist from an aerosol can, so it gets into hinge knuckles, lock cylinders and closer linkages without disassembly, and it displaces moisture on the way in. It leaves a nondrying oily film behind, so the joint stays lubricated after it's broken loose rather than drying out and seizing again.
2) What's the difference between LPS 1 and LPS 2, and which one do I want for door hardware?
The split is dry film versus oily film. LPS 2 Regular (00216) leaves a nondrying, oily film for long lasting lubrication, which is what you want on moving hardware that needs to keep working: hinges, closer arms, exit device linkages, latch mechanisms, rollers and tracks. LPS 1 is the greaseless one, leaving a thin dry film that repels dust and dirt, which suits parts where an oily film would collect grit. On a dusty or sandy site, or on a surface people touch, the dry film is the better pick. For anything that pivots or slides under load, use the 2.
3) Is LPS 2 safe to spray around energized electric motors and control gear?
LPS 00216 Regular #2 is nonconductive, with a dielectric strength of 33 kV tested to ASTM D-877, and engines and electric motors are named applications. Two cautions that matter on a live job: the flash point is 175 F (TCC), so it is a combustible product and does not belong near an ignition source, and standard practice is still to de-energize before spraying.
4) Will LPS 2 keep tools and stored parts from rusting in an unheated storage room?
Steel parts kept indoors get up to one year of corrosion protection from a coat of LPS 00216 Regular #2, and parts in storage plus hand and machine tools are both named uses. It displaces moisture as it goes on, so it can be sprayed on damp metal rather than requiring a dry surface first. The one-year figure is for indoor protection, so treat outdoor or exposed steel as a shorter interval.
5) Can I use LPS 2 in a food plant or a commercial kitchen?
LPS 00216 Regular #2 is acceptable for use in Canadian food processing establishments. That covers incidental-contact areas in those facilities; it is not a food-grade product for direct contact with food, and no US food-plant registration is carried on the record for it.
6) Does LPS 2 contain silicone or chlorinated solvents? I have painted and plastic surfaces nearby.
No silicones and no chlorinated solvents in LPS 00216 Regular #2, and it is stated safe on most surfaces. Silicone-free matters if anything in the area will later be painted or refinished, since silicone contamination causes fisheyes in the coating. Chlorinated-solvent-free matters where the shop has disposal or reactive-metal restrictions. Even so, spot-test on painted trim and soft plastics before you spray a whole assembly.
7) Is LPS 2 the right lubricant for exit device and door closer maintenance on an MRO route?
It works for most of the moving metal on an opening. Bearings and valves, cables and linkages, pulleys and rollers, and slides and tracks are all named applications, which maps onto closer arms and linkages, exit device touchbars and latch mechanisms, hinge pins, and sliding and folding door tracks. The oily film is nondrying, so it holds through service intervals. What it is not is a lock cylinder product for high-security keyways, where a dry graphite or PTFE lubricant is the usual trade choice because oil holds key dust in the plug.
8) Can LPS 2 be sprayed upside down to reach a hinge pin or a track overhead?
Yes. The can uses an Inverta spray valve, so it keeps spraying inverted, which is how you reach the underside of a track, an overhead roller or the bottom of a door closer arm without pulling anything down. Propellant is carbon dioxide.
9) Will LPS 2 still flow in a cold warehouse or an unheated loading dock in winter?
Pour point on LPS 00216 Regular #2 is -35 F (-37 C), so the fluid stays liquid well below anything a heated or unheated North American building sees, including cold-storage aisles and exterior dock hardware in winter. Specific gravity runs 0.82 to 0.86.
10) What's the manufacturer part number for LPS 2 Regular so I can order the right can?
LPS 2 Regular is catalogued by LPS as 00216, and the manufacturer part number to order against is 51100. It ships as a single aerosol spray can of liquid lubricant.
