Permatex, an innovator in chemical technology for automotive maintenance and repair, is now offering Permatex Silicone Ceramic Extreme Brake Parts Lubricant to prevent disc brake squeal and chatter while protecting caliper pins, sleeves, bushings and pistons against seizing and galling.
Permatex Silicone Ceramic Extreme Brake Parts Lubricant features a 100-percent silicone, non-petroleum based formula fortified with a high concentration of high-temperature ceramic-solids to deliver excellent performance on all sliding surfaces. Permatex says the new lubricant will not melt and can handle a wide temperature range from -50 degrees F to 3000 degrees F. It will not wash out and is designed to last throughout the life of the brake pad.
The company says Permatex Silicone Ceramic Extreme Brake Parts Lubricant lasts longer than ordinary caliper greases and disc brake quiet products. It is 100-percent compatible with internal/external brake rubber and plastic hardware, including ethylene-propylene rubber and metal components, according to Permatex. The lubricant can be applied to a backing plate or shim as a noise suppressor, dampening the natural vibration frequencies that cause caliper brake squeal.
Key applications include sleeves, bushings, inboard and outboard pads, disc brake calipers, caliper pins, pistons and abutment clips. Available in 0.5 oz. squeeze tube (No. 24129) and 8 fl. oz. bottle with built-in applicator (No. 80653).
