CRC Dry Graphite Lube, 10 oz Aerosol Can, Black by CRC

Firstly, electricity flows through graphite, so this is not durable for things like pressure switches (lithium grease is great for lubrication near electronics). Secondly, graphite makes a big mess, so it lasts a long time, but it’s not ideal to use it just anywhere. This is my lubricant of choice on my reel mower blade. Cuts quieter and better and reduces the chances of anything clinging to the blade or bed knife. Graphite is also my lubricant of choice for locks.

Very horrible... Product cap broken and half spray already leaked... Can't replace due to Amazon policy

Works well on bearings

It is a great product. It works like it should. Saw dust does not seem to stick to it. I will buy it again when this can is empty

I use this on threaded copper pipe fittings that need to be screwed and unscrewed repeatedly. With a lot of care, I can spray and twist and wait to dry and repeat until an entire set of threads is a uniform graphite black. The coating is quite durable, and won't come off without vigorous scrubbing with an alcohol-soaked rag (water doesn't do much). All of this is very positive. It's a pain in the butt to do though, firstly because the solids content is low (so you have to spray repeatedly to get a good coating), and secondly (most importantly) because the can DOES NOT COME WITH A STRAW! Nor can it fit a straw from another aerosol can. So in addition to getting a wonderful coating of graphite on the threads, it also goes on my hands, the table, other parts of the pipe, etc. Given that it is such a pain to apply, why four stars? All the other graphite coatings I have tried are worse. Slide-rite graphite lube is kind of greasy when it dries and doesn't stay on as well. Slip Plate Black Ice is real crap. Even after shaking vigorously for several minutes, the can still sprays mostly lubricant for several sprays. Then, it re-dissolves any previous layers, which means the place you spray it on becomes free and clear of any graphite. And, it wipes of cleanly with a dry rag after it dries (whereas CRC requires an alcohol solvent to remove). So, Slip Plate lacks any durability at all. If anyone from CRC is reading this, I would give your product 5 stars if you would make it less messy to apply!
