API-MODIFIED™
Jet-Lube | Whitmore Manufacturing, LLC
API-Modified is a compound that conforms to or exceeds the requirements of API RP 5A3. It also contains rust and oxidation inhibitors blended in JET-LUBE’s base grease compounded from custom-refined, low-sulfur oil to ensure brushability over a wide temperature range. It tenaciously adheres to all surfaces, resists water washout, and prevents rust & corrosion.
API-Modified reduces friction in the makeup of casing and tubing, preventing galling and wear. Maximum thread engagement is ensured, providing optimum leak resistance. Its conductivity reduces the possibility of electrolytic corrosion by preventing the formation of galvanic cells in the presence of salt water and other corrosive fluids.
Leak prevention to 10,000 psi on API Connection designs and higher on mechanical seal connection designs.
APPLICATIONS:
• API Casing (i.e. buttress & 8-Round)
• Tubing Connections
• Line Pipe
• Flow Lines
• Subsurface Production Tools
• Tank Batteries
• Threaded Connections of Oilfield Tubular Goods on Make-up, (in service, and in storage)
• Most Proprietary Mechanical Seal Connection Designs
*Not recommended for rotary shouldered connections

KOPR-KOTE® LITE
Jet-Lube | Whitmore Manufacturing, LLC
Kopr-Kote LITE is a premium, unleaded compound containing copper flake, graphite, and other natural extreme pressure and antiwear additives. Kopr-Kote LITE solids package is formulated to prevent excessive circumferential make-up by increasing the coefficient of friction under compressive forces. As stress levels rise above 50% of yield, the friction factor increases, limiting downhole make-up. Full hydraulic joint efficiency is maintained allowing joint shoulder faces to mate completely without standoff or deformation. For invert or high pH muds, use Jet-Lube® EXTREME®. For wedge-type thread connections, use NCS-30® ECF™ for best thread-wear protection.
For optimum performance on API drill string connections, Kopr-Kote LITE should be utilized with the torque charts in API RP7G by multiplying the torque value by 1.15 or by contacting the drill pipe and connection manufacturer. Friction factors for Kopr-Kote LITE were developed using full scale API tool joint connections.
Unequaled resistance to make-up downhole.
APPLICATIONS:
• Drill Collars
• Tool Joints
• Drill Strings

Description
Experience the power of Kopr-Kote, a highly trusted and proven copper-based drilling compound tailored for drill collars, tool joints, and drill strings. This advanced, lead-free formulation incorporates copper flake, graphite, and additional natural additives with extreme pressure and antiwear properties. Kopr-Kote's unique solids package is meticulously crafted to counteract excessive circumferential makeup by enhancing the
coe cient of friction when subjected to compressive forces. As stress levels rise, so does the friction factor, e ectively restricting downhole makeup. This ensures the preservation of joint e ciency, enabling seamless mating of joint shoulder faces without any standoff or deformation.
Applications:
Oilfield threads on:
• Drill collars
• Tool joints
• Drill Strings
