Ptfe dry spray
« on: February 08, 2021, 11:13:28 am »
Has anyone used this particular brand on their poles.?  Looks very similar packaging to the one Gardiners sell, and if so was it ok? I know Gardiners don't recommend certain ones like wd40 dry as it leaves it a bit sticky. I dont really need to put in an order with Gardiners at the mo so i would have to pay through the nose for delivery as they only ship this through fedex i believe else i'd just go through them.

Hi NBwcs

This is the correct grade of PTFE  :)

In fact we will soon discontinue selling PTFE spray ourselves due to the ever increasing complications of shipping Aerosol products under the Dangerous Goods regulations. Instead we will be providing links on our website to other suitable suppliers of this product moving forward.

Where do use the spray?

On the poles or the clamps as well?

Thanks

When doing the regular cleaning and servicing of the pole it is good to clean off the overlap area on each section (having pulled apart sections), replace the joint overlap tape if worn and then spray this over the overlap area only.

You can spray it along the whole section as well if desired, but it is not needed.
