OATEY 30599 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can Oatey 30599 pipe lubricant be used on rubber gaskets without damaging them?
Yes. The Oatey 30599 pipe lubricant will not deteriorate natural or synthetic rubber, which is why it is made for bell joint pipe gaskets. It is a soft, paste-like material that eases the gasket into the bell without attacking the elastomer.
2) Is Oatey 30599 pipe lubricant safe for potable water lines?
It is NSF listed to Standard 61, the standard covering drinking water system components, and it is non-toxic and will not support bacteria. That combination is what lets it be used on gasketed joints in potable water piping.
3) Can I use pipe gasket lubricant in freezing weather on a winter mainline job?
The Oatey 30599 lubricant can be applied from -10 F to 150 F, so it stays workable for cold-weather trench work and holds up on hot summer installs. No warming of the pail is called for inside that range.
4) Is Oatey 30599 a soldering flux or a gasket lubricant?
It is a gasket lubricant, not a soldering flux. Despite sitting in the same chemicals family as fluxes and sealants, the 30599 is a paste for lubricating bell joint pipe gaskets so the spigot seats into the bell. For sweating copper you need an actual soldering flux instead.
5) Does the pipe gasket have to be dry before applying Oatey 30599?
No. This lubricant adheres to wet and dry surfaces, so a gasket or bell that is damp from rain or trench water does not have to be wiped down first.
6) How do I clean up Oatey 30599 pipe lubricant off tools and hands?
It dissolves in hot water, so hot water cleans it off hands, gaskets and tools with no solvent needed.
7) What size container does Oatey part number 30599 come in and how much does it weigh?
Part number 30599 is a 16 oz container of amber pipe lubricant, with a listed product weight of 1.15 and a volume of 0.028. One container covers a run of gasketed joints on typical sewer and water main work.
