“2000” High-Pressure / High-Temperature Thread Compound for Casing, Tubing, and Line Pipe COLOR Black - copper PENETRATION 310-330 (ASTM D-217) WEIGHT/GALLON 10.4 pounds/gallon DROPPING POINT 350°F/177ºC (typ) FLASH POINT 385°F/196ºC (min) BRUSHABLE TO 10°F/-12ºC SERVICE RATING 500°F/260ºC TORQUE FACTOR 0.90 (relative to API Modified)* CONTAINS Inert nonmetallic solids and <4% copper Bestolife “2000”® is a non-lead, non-zinc alternative to API Modified. Extensive controlled testing, including full-scale make and breaks and sustained gas pressure tests, has demonstrated that “2000”® conforms with ISO 13678 and API RP 5A3. “2000”® will meet or exceed the listed performance objectives in ISO 13678 and API RP 5A3. The major solid components are a proprietary blend of nonmetallic materials that are inert to chemical attack, such as occurs in sour gas environments and with CO2 injection, and stable to temperatures in excess of 500°F. Bestolife “2000”® also addresses one of the major concerns in pipe yards and threading operations today - rejects due to pitting and corrosion. In a 700 hour salt fog spray test, “2000”® has demonstrated corrosion protection that exceeds the performance of the leading storage compound in the industry. The results of these tests show that Bestolife “2000”® is not only an excellent “running” compound but can also provide superior protection during long term storage (contact manufacturer for application requirements). *The proper field torque for all API casing and tubing connections should be determined by following the procedures outlined in API RP 5C1: “Recommended Practice for Care and Use of Casing and Tubing”. DO NOT USE ON OXYGEN LINES OR IN OXYGEN ENRICHED ATMOSPHERES.
