AGS SIL-Glyde Silicone Brake Assembly Lubricant 12 oz Tub — Heat & Moisture Resistant, Stops Disc Brake Squeal

Built for professional technicians and home mechanics, AGS SIL-Glyde 12 oz tub supplies a silicone-based brake assembly lubricant formulated to be safe on plastics and rubber while delivering lasting vibration damping. The product is engineered to remain stable at elevated temperatures, resist washout from moisture, and make brake hardware easier to assemble and disassemble without attacking EPDM or nitrile materials.

How does SIL-Glyde reduce noisy brakes?

SIL-Glyde works by creating a stable, low-friction barrier at metal-to-metal and metal-to-rubber contact points that commonly transmit high-frequency vibrations. Instead of masking sound, it prevents the vibration that generates squeal and minimizes rubbing-induced noise from caliper pins and pad edges.

• Applies to caliper slides, pad backs, abutments, and contact surfaces.
• Dampens vibration between mating surfaces to stop high-frequency squeal.
• Maintains paste consistency under heat so damping remains effective.

Is this lubricant safe for rubber and plastic brake parts?

Yes — SIL-Glyde is a silicone-based paste formulated for compatibility with common brake materials, including EPDM and nitrile rubber. It will not swell or degrade these components like some petroleum-based greases can, making it suitable for use where boots, seals, and clips are present.

• Non-petroleum silicone chemistry protects rubber and plastic components.
• Designed for use on caliper boots, guide pins, clips, and pad hardware.
• Helps avoid premature seal hardening or swelling from incompatible greases.

How does SIL-Glyde stand up to heat and moisture during service?

SIL-Glyde offers robust resistance to both high temperatures and environmental moisture so it won’t burn off or wash away during normal braking. Its thermal stability helps the paste keep its damping and lubricating properties even near rotor temperatures, while the moisture-proof formula resists water intrusion and corrosion.

• Rated to tolerate elevated operating temperatures without breakdown.
• Moisture-proof formulation reduces washout and corrosion risk.
• Helps maintain easy disassembly after extended service intervals.

Where should I apply this paste during brake maintenance?

SIL-Glyde is intended for non-friction surface applications across the brake assembly where lubrication and vibration control are needed. Apply sparingly to guide pins, pad backs, caliper slides, and contact points—avoid rotor and pad friction surfaces.

• Use on guide pins, slides, abutments, and caliper mounting points.
• Do not apply to rotor or pad friction faces; keep away from braking surfaces.
• 12 oz tub provides enough paste for multiple axle services or professional use.

Who this is for: AGS SIL-Glyde is aimed at professional mechanics, fleet technicians, and DIY enthusiasts who want a reliable, silicone-based brake lubricant that prevents squeal, protects rubber and plastic parts, and endures heat and moisture. If you need a versatile, long-lasting paste to improve brake quietness and ease future repairs, this product is designed to meet those needs.
