Sandstrom Poxylube 820 Clear is a single-component, air-drying PTFE-modified solid film lubricant engineered by Sandstrom Products Company for aerospace, defense, and industrial applications requiring clean dry lubricity without obscuring underlying substrate details or part identification markings. Formulated with sub-micron polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) particles suspended in an air-curing resin binder, Poxylube 820 Clear cures at ambient shop temperatures to form a hard, translucent, low-friction protective coating. It reduces metal-on-metal sliding friction, prevents binding and galling under light-to-moderate loads, and provides reliable resistance to solvents, hydraulic fluids, and corrosion without requiring heat-curing oven cycles.
Technical Specifications & Cross-References

- VOC Content: Formulated for compliance with industrial air-drying coating standards
Approved Specifications & Industrial Conformance:
Sandstrom Poxylube 820 Clear meets rigorous commercial and defense overhaul guidelines:
- Transparent Air-Dry Lubricant Baseline: Engineered specifically for applications requiring a room-temperature curing, PTFE-based dry film coating that preserves visual inspection capabilities.
- Aviation MRO & OEM Acceptances: Utilized across commercial flight line repair and defense overhaul programs for touch-up dry lubricity.
- Fluid Resistance Profile: Resists degradation from intermittent exposure to jet fuels, Skydrol hydraulic fluids, lubricating oils, and mild cleaning solvents post-cure.
Key Features & Performance Benefits
- Transparent Coating Clarity: Translucent finish keeps part serial numbers, color coding, stamped markings, and substrate conditions fully visible.
- Convenient Ambient Air Cure: Eliminates the need for high-temperature oven baking, making it ideal for field-repair touch-ups, large structural assemblies, and heat-sensitive materials.
- Low-Friction PTFE Lubricity: Micro-fine PTFE particles significantly reduce friction coefficients, preventing binding, scuffing, and surface galling.
- Non-Tacky Dry Film Finish: Cures to a clean, non-greasy surface that will not attract airborne dust, sand, or flight deck grit.
- Corrosion Barrier Protection: Seals steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium substrates against atmospheric moisture and chemical degradation.
Typical Applications
- Visible Control Mechanisms & Linkages: Applied to flight deck control hinges, latches, pins, and sliding mechanisms where identification markings must remain visible.
- Field Repair & Touch-Up Operations: Used to touch up damaged factory-applied dry film coatings on airframe parts without removing heat-sensitive subcomponents.
- Precision Hardware & Fasteners: Ideal for guide rails, sleeve bushings, valves, and threaded fittings requiring predictable torque-tension values and visual inspection capability.

4. Special Customer Requirements
We understand that certain projects, maintenance schedules, or regulatory standards require strict specifications. If your order has specific shelf-life requirements, please proceed as follows:
How to Request: If you require a specific Date of Manufacture (DOM), Date of Expiration (DOE), or a specific minimum shelf-life percentage (%), you must clearly state this requirement:
In the Comments/Notes section when placing an online order.
Explicitly written on your Purchase Order (PO) or quote request email for offline orders.
Validation Process: Once your requirement is received:
