Technical Information
DeoxIT DN5 is CAIG Laboratories’ professional contact cleaner from the DeoxIT D-Series, specifically formulated for cleaning, deoxidizing, and conditioning electrical contacts, connectors, and switches. DeoxIT goes beyond standard contact cleaners by not only cleaning contamination from contacts but also chemically deoxidizing the metal surface to remove existing oxide layers that increase contact resistance. It then conditions the surface with a thin film that reduces future oxidation and maintains low contact resistance over time. DeoxIT is particularly valued in audio equipment maintenance, avionics connector servicing, and precision instrument maintenance where low contact resistance is critical for reliable electrical performance.
Why Choose DeoxIT DN5S-6N?
- DeoxIT Deoxidizing Action — Removes existing oxide films that standard cleaners leave behind
- Clean + Deoxidize + Protect — Three-stage action: cleans, deoxidizes, and conditions contacts
- Audio & Avionics Grade — Trusted for audio equipment, avionics connectors, and precision instruments
- Reduces Contact Resistance — Restores low resistance at oxidized contact interfaces
- CAIG Laboratories Trusted — Industry-leading contact care chemistry from CAIG Laboratories
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is DeoxIT DN5S-6N Contact Cleaner used for?
A: DeoxIT DN5 is used for cleaning, deoxidizing, and conditioning electrical contacts, audio equipment connectors, avionics switches, and precision instrument contacts where removing oxide buildup and restoring low contact resistance is required.
Q: What is the MPN for DeoxIT DN5S-6N 5 oz Aerosol Can?
A: The Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) is DN5S-6N.
Q: What does ‘deoxidizing’ mean in DeoxIT contact cleaner?
A: Deoxidizing refers to chemically removing the oxide film that forms on copper, silver, and other contact metals over time. Oxide films increase contact resistance, causing signal degradation and connection problems. DeoxIT’s formula chemically dissolves these oxides, restoring the clean metal contact surface.
Q: Is DeoxIT DN5 safe for use on gold-plated contacts?
A: DeoxIT products are generally safe for gold-plated contacts. Consult the CAIG Laboratories DeoxIT product documentation for specific guidance on gold, silver, and other precious metal contact applications.
Q: What is the difference between DeoxIT D5 and DN5?
A: DeoxIT D5 is the standard spray contact cleaner and DN5 is a version with a different concentration or spray volume. The D-Series products share the same deoxidizing contact chemistry. Consult CAIG Laboratories for the specific differences between product variants.
