BESTOLIFE® CSSB PLUS is a high-performance copper-based thread compound designed for rotary-shouldered connections. It builds on the original CSSB formula by adding a proprietary corrosion inhibitor, delivering superior running capabilities along with enhanced long-term storage protection. CSSB PLUS resists washout, guards against corrosion, and maintains stability in storage without hardening or bleeding excessively.
Formulated with copper flake, amorphous and synthetic graphite, and H₂S, oxidation, and corrosion inhibitors in a high-temperature base grease, CSSB PLUS is recommended for all drilling applications, including high-temperature environments. It is also effective for use on slides, jacking systems, cantilever-type rigs, and assemblies.
For optimal performance, BESTOLIFE recommends applying 10–15% additional torque beyond the minimum values specified in API and IADC tables for drill collars and drill pipe when using BESTOLIFE copper compounds.
