McLube Sailkote Dry Lubricant Spray

The team at Sailing Chandlery review the McLube Sailkote dry lubricant spray.


This lubricant is ideal for sailing applications and comes in a 300ml can with a tube so you can spray into a direct area.


McLube® Sailkote™ dry lubricant spray should be sprayed on anything that moves to make it more slippery, helping your systems to run more freely reducing friction.


Added top tip, use this on your tell tales to stop them sticking in the rain.

You can try McLube Sailkote for the following applications:

  • Your spinnaker chute
  • Luff tapes
  • Bowsprits
  • Mast tracks
  • Tell tales
  • Tracks that don't use ball bearings

Once you've added Sailkote dry lubricant you'll be amazed at how much it reduces friction on your boat parts! 


You can spray or wipe it on depending on the application. 


The McLube will dry in seconds, and unlike oils, silicones and waxes, it doesn't attract dirt and water contaminants.


If you're really keen you can spray it on and around your tell tales and it will stop them sticking to your sail on those horrible rainy days on the water.
