Slick Advantage: Why Lubricant Silicone Spray Matters

The last thing you want is equipment failure sitting miles from the shore in the water out there. Lubricant silicone spray is essential in your kit, either for the preparation of a spearfishing trip or after a dive to maintain your gear. Smooth functioning is but one element; a lubricant is all-important for the longevity, safety, and dependable operation of any moving component.

Keeping Your Equipment in Shockingly Good Shape

The marine environment is one very abrasive environment. Saltwater, fine sand, and constant movement are against nature in their pull of wear and tear on even the best of equipment. Working with spearfishing gear daily means rust and corrosion come to be enemies, especially when there is a moving interface involved.

Lubricant silicone spray comes into its own there. Forming a fine coating over the silicone stops moisture and salt from creeping into tiny folds and attachments and into hinges and o-rings. It also provides a slick surface: no stickiness of the usual oil-based type.

Why Use a Lubricant Silicone Spray?

• Prevents Corrosion: Works as an effective, waterproof barrier against salt and water damage to gear.
• Reduces Friction: Keeps mechanical parts operating smoothly; trigger mechanisms, reel systems.
• Extending Life of Tools: When applied correctly and regularly, it can dramatically increase its lifespan.
• Secure on Most Surfaces: It is safe on plastics, rubber, and metals without damaging seals or finishes.
• Quick-Drying and Clean: It leaves no gluey residue and dries quickly, hence making cleanup even easier.

Maintenance of Speargun Parts and Beyond

Your speargun is the primary underwater tool on which you rely heavily. All parts must work seamlessly, from barrel to trigger mechanism to bands. The silicone spray keeps your speargun parts from the buildup of gunk or dirt that might hamper accuracy or security.

In particular, reels and trigger mechanisms will jam if not maintained regularly. A light spray will keep these parts gliding-free without the buildup of gunk. It also keeps rubber parts, like powerbands, from drying and cracking under the sun or salt exposure.

It is not limited to use for spearguns:

• Freediving fins to keep straps flexible
• Wetsuit zippers to allow smooth gliding
• Dive knives and sheaths to reduce sticking and corrosion
• Weight belts and clips, which endure everyday wear
• A Small Step That Makes a Big Difference

Nobody compromises preventive maintenance in a serious gear culture. Silicone spray is a minor component in an equipment checklist, yet it has a significant bearing on the working of the equipment as well as on the lifetime of the equipment.

A dive bag must hold such a spray can, with preparations for any occasion requiring quick application right before or after any trip. Several seconds are enough for better equipment and less frustration, helping every dive go perfectly.
