Contact Cleaner for Metal Connectors
DeoxIT DN5 is a 5 % solution that cleans, deoxidises, lubricates and preserves metal contacts in one step. It suits technicians and hobbyists who need reliable conductivity on audio, data or power connectors without harming surrounding plastics. The 163 g aerosol delivers roughly 1200 applications for bench or field work.
Thermals Noise and Power Draw
The non-flammable formula remains stable from -34 °C to +200 °C, so it functions in cold outdoor gear and hot engine bays alike. Quick-dry, non-drip behaviour means no residue builds up to attract dust or cause shorting. No propellant noise or electrical draw is involved during use.
Build Quality and Daily Use
The spray nozzle provides controlled delivery onto pins, sockets and switches without overspray onto adjacent components. Safe-on-plastics chemistry allows direct use on insulated housings and cable assemblies. NSN 6850-01-519-5548 confirms military supply-chain qualification for maintenance kits.

Questions about this item
How do I apply the DN5 spray to a connector without dripping?
Hold the can upright and spray a short burst directly onto the contact; the formula is non-drip and quick-drying, so it stays where you put it.
Will the 163 g can last through multiple maintenance sessions?
Yes, the manufacturer estimates roughly 1200 applications per can, so it covers many cleaning jobs over time.
Can the cleaner withstand the heat inside an engine bay?
It remains stable from -34 °C up to +200 °C, so it will not break down under sustained high temperatures.
