Driven Assembly Gel is a no-drip engine assembly lubricant built on zinc and molybdenum anti-wear additives that stays exactly where it is applied. Unlike thickened greases, the tacky gel base improves additive response while clinging to vertical surfaces and tight assembly areas. It prevents metal-to-metal contact at initial startup and through break-in, mixes safely with break-in oil, and will not harden over time, so it suits engines that are stored or partially assembled.
Specifications:
- Product line: Driven GP-1 Assembly Gel
- Type: Zinc and molybdenum engine assembly gel
- Texture: Non-hardening, tacky, no-drip gel
- Compatibility: Mixes safely with break-in oil and high-zinc lubricants
- Container: 8 oz bottle
- Part number: 77000
Applications:
- Engine assembly coating for wrist pins, camshafts, lifters, bearings, timing gears, and valvetrain components.
- Protection against metal-to-metal contact during initial startup and break-in.
- Stored or partially assembled engines, since the gel does not harden over time.
FAQ
What is Driven Assembly Gel used for?
It is applied to wrist pins, camshafts, lifters, bearings, timing gears, and valvetrain parts during engine assembly to prevent metal-to-metal contact at first startup and through break-in.
Does the gel wash off or drip during assembly?
No. It is a no-drip, tacky gel that stays where it is applied, which makes it suited to vertical surfaces and tight clearances.
Is the gel safe with break-in oil?
Yes. Driven states the gel mixes safely with break-in oil and other high-zinc lubricants.
Does the gel harden if an engine sits?
No. The gel does not harden or become sticky over time, so it works for engines that are stored or left partially assembled.
