The faucet occupies an important position in our home, and its main core is the valve body. The valve body is the main component, such as the human heart, called the valve body. The main function is to adjust the size of the water flow and switch water.

 

Why use food grade grease for faucet valve body?

 

The faucet is a medium in contact with the water body, and the valve body is a closed switch that controls the water circuit, and contacts the valve body during the flow of water.

 

The grease generally used gradually remains in the body with the use of the valve body, or directly affects the human body. Therefore, the valve body must use food grade grease, which is harmless to the human body and can directly or indirectly contact the human body.

 

How to choose the faucet valve body grease is also very important, with the following characteristics:

 

1. It should be food grade grease with NSF-H1 certification, which is harmless to human body and can directly or indirectly contact human body.

 

2. Excellent sealing, adhesion, long life, corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance.

 

3. Excellent high-temperature thermal stability and wide operating temperature range. It has good dielectric properties and electrical insulation properties to prevent electric shock.

 

4. Compatibility and washing resistance of faucet/cylinder ceramic disc and plastic.

 

The lubrication requirements of mechanical parts operating in water environment are extremely high. The faucet valve body grease can not only prevent wear and corrosion, but also resist water showers. If grease is used incorrectly, the surface will be deteriorated, the reliability of the equipment will be poor, and frequent maintenance may follow. Baoxing food-grade ceramic valve core sealing waterproof grease is refined synthetic oil thickened with inorganic thickener, and added with structural stability, solid lubrication, friction improvement, flocculation and other additives, refined by special technology. It has good lubricity and wide operating temperature, is safe and non-toxic, waterproof and lubricated, anti-wear, especially suitable for various ceramic valve core position applications.

 

product advantages:

 

1. The structural stabilizer improves the mechanical stability of the grease

 

2. Solid lubricants and friction modifiers extend the service life

 

3. The base oil has high viscosity and is more resistant to water washing and high pressure

 

4. Good compatibility with most plastics and elastomers (rubber, PE, PVC, etc.)

 

5. Suitable consistency of the grease, easy to apply, anti-wear, long compressive life

 

6. Comply with safety standards such as F.D.A, ASTM-F963, 16P, ROSH and PEACH standards
