Description
Micro-Scientific MicroLube C Lubricant is a water-soluble instrument lubricant with a rust inhibitor that keeps hinges, box locks and moving parts working smoothly through repeated sterilization. The lubricant bath coats instruments before sterilization and stays compatible with every common sterilization method. Prepared solution can be reused for up to 28 days, and gallons ship four to a case.
- Lubricant plus rust inhibitor – smooth movement and corrosion protection in one bath
- Water soluble – compatible with steam and other sterilization methods
- 28-day bath life – prepared solution can be reused for up to 28 days
- Gallon case of 4 – department-sized supply for the lubricant station
MicroLube C Keeps Instruments Moving and Rust-Free
Stiff hinges and rusty box locks are maintenance failures, not instrument failures, and both trace back to skipped lubrication. MicroLube C gives moving parts a water-soluble lubricant film that survives the sterilization cycle instead of interfering with it. The built-in rust inhibitor guards the same joints and surfaces that moisture attacks during washing and storage. Because the lubricant is water soluble, it is compatible with all sterilization methods and leaves no oily barrier to steam penetration. One prepared bath can be reused for up to 28 days, which keeps the lubricant station cheap to run. Departments that build the dip into every set see smoother instruments and fewer repairs over the life of the fleet.
