21 ARCTIC is free of lead and zinc and formulated to provide a high level of performance for the increasing demands of today’s oilfield market. The lead-free formulation contains copper flake as the only metallic component and is fortified by a unique blend of natural, inorganic, extreme-pressure, and anti-wear additives. For invert or high-pH muds, a special base grease can be made available or use JET-LUBE EXTREME OR NCS-30.
APPLICATIONS:
Recommended for the entire drill string in most drilling conditions. Typical applications would include high angle holes, problem holes, whip stocks, and horizontal drilling applications in moderate to low temperature regions. 21 ARCTIC prevents high stress in drill pipe connections which shortens their useful life.
21 ARCTIC has been designed to utilize the thread manufacturer’s recommended torque makeup charts multiplied by the friction factor of 1.15. In the more severe drilling situations such as higher speeds, higher penetration rates, deviated holes, or harder formations, drill collars and other rotary shouldered connections should be made up at least 10% over the recommended values.
