Liquid-O-Ring 368 Zero is a metal-free thread compound formulated especially for use on all OCTG connections. It can be used on API 8-round and Buttress connections as well as premium connections. Liquid-O-Ring 368 Zero is a proprietary blend of non-metallic ingredients blended in a high quality, corrosion inhibited petroleum based grease. It has been tested according to API Thread Compound Control and Performance tests as outlined in API 5A3/ISO 13678, Page 3, section 4.2.1. Liquid-O-Ring 368 Zero is an economical alternative to metallic compounds that contain lead, zinc, or copper, which are considered hazardous according to DOT, IMDG, IATA, and OSHA classifications.
Liquid-O-Ring 368 Zero is a complete compound which can be used as an intermediate range storage compound, a running compound, and a compound for hydrostatic testing of casing and tubing.
