Liquid-O-Ring 325 OCR Modified Thread Compound is a superior non-metallic thread compound for casing, tubing, premium connections, and line pipe. This thread compound was tested in conformance with the requirements of API formulated thread compounds. The absence of metals eliminates galvanic corrosion while making Liquid-O-Ring 325 OCR Modified the ideal thread compound for today’s stringent environmental concerns. Liquid-O-Ring 325 OCR Modified
meets the objective for eliminating hazardous materials in the work place as presented in OSHA
Communication 29 CFR 1910.1200.In addition to meeting today’s environmental needs, Liquid-O-Ring 325 OCR Modified will provide excellent lubricity to premium connections designed to provide metal-tometal sealing. Liquid-O-Ring 325 OCR Modified will also provide continuous sealing properties, corrected make-up/breakout torque, and corrosion protection to tubular goods during short periods of storage.Liquid-O-Ring 325 OCR Modified has passed the LC-50 toxicity test and has a friction factor of 1.0.
