## Overview

CRC Food Grade Silicone 03040 is a 10 oz aerosol lubricant designed for high-temperature applications up to 400°F. NSF H1 certified for incidental food contact, it forms a clear, odorless, non-staining film that lubricates metal, plastic, and rubber surfaces in food processing and industrial equipment. Featuring the innovative Perma-Lock 2-way actuator, it offers both precision and broad spray options, ensuring versatile and efficient application across conveyors, ovens, seals, and more.

## Description

CRC Food Grade Silicone lubricant spray protects various metal and non-metal surfaces in wide temperature range applications. It reduces binding and sticking in various applications to ensure smooth surface contact. This long lasting lubrication formula helps machines and equipment maintain efficiency during use. Food Grade Silicone is NSF H1 registered to be used in food processing and handling applications, and includes the CRC Perma-Lock 2-Way integrated actuator. This feature provides options for both a broad spray or precision spray through the convenient locked-in-place straw.

Review: Great, & No, Being Dissolved in a Volatile Flammable Solvent Does Not Preclude This Being Food Grade - I love this stuff and use it as a general purpose lubricant, excepting parts which require a grease or need a more capable lubricant than silicone, e.g. moly-based products. It’s also useful as a coating to inhibit oxidation or create a moderately resilient non-stick or hydrophobic surface. The solvent dries quickly and doesn’t smell like a hydrocarbon to me (actually reminds me of the Paslode tool cleaner aerosol), and while i haven’t noticed any obvious damage to plastics, I have noticed it damaging latex tubing with heavy coats, so it’s probably best to make a couple light passes on potential sensitive materials to allow the solvent to quickly evaporate. Performance seems great compared to other silicone spray lubricants I’ve tried, including automotive Blaster silicone, and it is definitely cleaner to work with. Finally, the spray nozzle that comes installed is excellent—the straw is robust and integral and it is hinged, exposing a broader cone nozzle when lowered. I save these after the can is expended—it functions as a female actuator which needs to mate with a somewhat thicker valve stem (I use a sleeve made from short length of ¹⁄₁₆”ID ×¹⁄₈”OD silicone tubing for compatibility with thinner stems when needed), but it isn’t secured to the stem and has a floating interface to it—instead, to couple mechanically with the can, the carapace snaps around the seam of the mounting cup (cups on other products have been sufficiently congruous for me so far for this to work well), similar to the nozzles on compressed air duster cans. I suspect it could be made to work to replace a male actuator as well, by use floating stem which is appropriately sized, but I’ve yet to try this. Finally, there seems to be some confusion relating to the flammability warning and the it’s food-grade classification: (ⅰ) I assume it is rated for incidental contact with food, not intentional incorporation into a dish; (ⅱ) the volatile solvent is what is flammable, not the product which persists after the solvent evaporates, which evaporates quickly, leaving behind the food safe coating (recall, this is not intended to be incorporated into a dish as an ingredient, only used to coat equipment or implements, so standing by while evaporation completes shouldn’t typically be feasible); (ⅲ) also, generally, flammability is not exclusive to toxic materials, nor is it a reliable indicator of toxicity—some glaring examples of relatively non-toxic flammable substances are ethanol (itself, a commonly-used solvent), acetone (at low levels, such as produced by the body during ketosis), many organic lipids and fatty alcohols (e.g., butter, cooking oils, beeswax, some common emulsifiers like cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol), mineral oil, hydrogen gas, relatively inert substances like propylene glycol (commonly used in liquid for e-cigarettes along with glycerol, also flammable, and in pharmaceuticals), sugar (highly flammable when ground finely), cellulose (of which the cell walls of plants are composed), et c.—these represent a wide range of flammability, with substances like hydrogen gas being extremely flammable and can detonate, while the various organic lipids listed are relatively less volatile outside of favorable conditions, like heating near their flashpoints or exposing them to open flame, though their typical uses cases, in cooking and cosmetics, often involve exposing them to those conditions. Also, I list these as offhand examples as they relate to flammability and toxicity, generally—unlike these examples, I suspect that the flammable solvent in this product is also quite toxic as well, but, as stated, it’s function is as a temporary carrier to distribute the product, and contact with food presumably ought not be permitted until its evaporation is complete.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it contain any other ingredients or propellants?**
A: Four items totaled are listed on the can. (1) Hydrotreated light naphtha is a light petroleum. (2) 1,1Difuorethane is a propellant listed as safe to use by the EPA for food. (3) Polydmethylsiloxane is a type of silicone. (4) n-Hexane 110-54-3 is a crude oil product that evaporates very quickly into the air and is used to extract vegetable oils from crops like soybeans. I use this product on my Cabela's meatgrinder after I've cleaned it, dried it, and before I put it away. It keeps away the rust while keeping the product lubricated between uses. Also never use this product near an open flame as it is very flammable.

**Q: Can this be used to prevent things from sticking to a toilet bowl? Will it wash off?**
A: It will not penetrate the material of a toilet bowl. Porcelain that has lost its’ smooth surface can be waxed with a good paste wax

**Q: Can it be use on reverse osmosis o ring?**
A: yes

**Q: Can this be used to lubricate aquarium filter O-rings?**
A: I think what you want if you are working around aquariums is the CRC 3035 Water Based Silicone multi-purpose lubricant.  The MSDS quotes "Water Based Silicone LC50 Fish 515.3261 mg/l, 96 hours" for the dry silicone residue, however the multiple components, Polydimethylsiloxane (CAS 63148-62-9) Aquatic LC50 Fish 2.36 - 4.15 mg/l, 96 hrs should be allowed to dry and excess wiped off before exposing to the fish.  Use an abundance of caution.  The CRC 3040 Food Grade Silicone is more for coating metal parts, persists longer on the surface, and has more toxic components.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another great Food Grade lubricant from CRC
*by M***A on December 11, 2009*

I'll start by repeating what I said from my other review of CRC's Food Grade Grease. I'm very sensitive to chemical odors and vapors that linger for months. For example oil, gasoline, grease, WD-40 type lubricants etc. They are not good for your health either. I wanted to find a silicone lubricant that was odorless and also nontoxic so did a little research and found that "Food Grade" silicone was what I needed. There are a few lubrication products on the market from different manufacturers that are classified as Food Grade but Amazon carried this brand so I ordered it. I'm very happy with this product, it's odorless and since it is registered as a NSF H1 class lubricant it is very safe. I specifically purchased this to use on the rubber guide channels of my car's power windows. I have a vintage (old) car and the power windows were very slow to roll up. After spraying this silicone lubricant down the rubber guides for the glass, the windows roll up much easier now. I could hear the motor working free with less resistance as before. Best part is there are no odors even though I'm sitting in the car with the windows very close by. I also use this to lubricate the belt on an electric treadmill that my mother use. Prior to this I used a standard silicone spray on the treadmill...big mistake! The odors from the non-Food Grade silicone were horrible especially when you're walking or jogging on the treadmill. Not something you'd want to breath in when gasping for air during a workout! With the Food Grade silicone there is no smell from the treadmill. This Food Grade silicone is very useful for lubricating other things in and around the home too like door hinges, window guides etc. This sprays on wet so it is able to penetrate tight spaces with ease. I highly recommend this product for those who are sensitive to chemical odors like myself.
