Save money on maintenance

ClareTech Valve Lubricant 601™ protects critical valve components like gates and seats, helping reduce wear and extending valve life. Its strong lubricating properties cut down on maintenance, minimise re-greasing, and lower the need for costly repairs or replacements.

Seals better, even when the valve is damaged

ClareTech Valve Lubricant 601™ doesn’t just protect: It actively helps restore performance. In field use, it seals most valves with minor damage or leakage, helping operators avoid costly shutdowns. It supports a reliable metal-to-metal seal and performs under high pressure, temperature, and sour service conditions without drying out or breaking down.
