Burndy Penetrox

Burndy Penetrox is an oxide-preventing complex that is used for inhibiting oxidation or corrosion, producing poor initial contact resistance and for correct electrical junction between metal parts such as conductors.

Penetrox A is a petroleum-based complex with equally suspended zinc particles. It is used for contacts such as aluminum to aluminum, aluminum to copper and aluminum conduit threads. It is not advised to use Penetrox A with rubber or thermoplastic insulated conductors.It is UL Listed to 600 volts.

Penetrox A-13 are synthetic-based complexes where zinc particles are suspended. It is advised for contacts such as aluminum to aluminum, aluminum to copper and aluminum conduit threads. It can be used with rubber or thermoplastic. Penetrox A-13 is UL Listed for all voltages.

Penetrox E is a non-petroleum complex that consists of equally suspended copper particles. It is used for copper to copper contacts, copper threads and all grounding applications. UL Listed.

Penetrox HT complexes are synthetic silicone based with equally suspended zinc and nickel-aluminum combination particles. It is used for aluminum to aluminum contact. Penetrox HT is advised for use with high temperature ACSS and ACCC connectors. It is not UL Listed.

All Penetrox complexes consist of homogeneously suspended metal particles that improve electrical conductivity and increase the integrity of the contact.

Penetrox compounds are used with compression and bolted connectors providing improved connections whether for copper or aluminum.
