Lanotec MGX Marine Grade Lubricant is lanolin penetrant and lubricant for boats, trailers and coastal plant, in 600 mL triggers, 3 L packs and 5 L jerry cans.

What it does

Lanolin and an evaporative carrier make up MGX. The carrier works deep into fittings and seams, frees parts that salt has locked and lubricates them, then flashes off and leaves a lanolin barrier that keeps water out. Lanotec's data sheet lists resistance to acids, salts and wash off, protection for dissimilar metals that would otherwise gall, and AS 2331.3.1 salt spray testing and MIL-C-16173. Lanotec also says it retards marine growth, and lists HACCP food grade and NSF certification. From the jerry can a marine workshop can fill its own sprayers, or brush and roll it on.

Where to use it

Inboard and outboard motors, inboard legs, drive shafts and steering cables. Engine mounts, pumps, moorings, chains, canopy frames, rivets and the crevices where water sits. Trailers, winches, linkages, shackles and wire ropes. Electrical cabinets, battery terminals and wiring connectors, where Lanotec gives it a 70 kV non conductive rating. For quick jobs on board there is Lanotec MGX Marine Grade Lubricant Aerosol. Browse coolants and lubricants.

How to use

1. Agitate the pack until mixed; cold days need extra.
2. Prepare a clean, dry surface.
3. Apply by trigger, brush or roller.
4. Allow roughly 60 minutes before the gear gets wet.
5. Recoat as often as salt and spray exposure demands.

Safe on / avoid

Lanotec rates MGX as suitable for rubber and plastics. In the pack it is a combustible liquid, so no heat, sparks or open flame while working or until the carrier evaporates. Once that has happened, Lanotec's data sheet says the residue is non hazardous. Read the Safety Data Sheet before use.
