Featuring homogeneously suspended zinc particles, it reduces contact resistance and prevents corrosion in aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-copper connections. UL listed to 600V and ROHS compliant, it ensures durable, weather-resistant, and high-conductivity performance for professional-grade electrical installations. ## Description PENA138 is an oxide inhibitor used in electrical compression terminals. Manufactured to accommodate aluminum to aluminum and aluminum to copper connections and aluminum conduit threading. This also serves as a product used with insulated cable. PENA138 has zinc particles which are suspended to provide more conductive surface area when applied. This product is recommended for all voltages and is UL Listed and ROHS compliant Review: Ad description clarification - The ad description, as of writing this, states: "PENETROX A is a natural (petroleum) base compound with..." which is TRUE. BUT... the ad is for PENETROX 'A13' which Burndy themselves says: "PENETROX A13 consists of a non-petroleum base vehicle in which zinc particles are suspended. Recommended for aluminum to aluminum, aluminum to copper applications and aluminum conduit threads. Compatible with insulating materials such as rubber, or polyethylene. UL Listed and recommended for all voltages." You want 'A13" if you want a NON-petroleum based oxide inhibitor that is compatible with certain insulation jackets. Review: Four Stars - good stuff ## Features - Oxide-inhibiting compounds produce low initial contact resistance, seal out air and moisture, prevent oxidation or corrosion, exhibit superior weathering characteristics, are usable over wide temperature ranges, and provide a high conductivity “gastight” joint. - Compounds contain homogeneously suspended metal particles. The suspended metal particles assist in penetrating thin oxide films, act as electrical “bridges” between conductor strands. the integrity of the connection - Aid in gripping the conductor, improve electrical conductivity and enhance the integrity of the connection - The specially formulated compounds are for use with compression and bolted connectors providing an improved service life for both aluminum connections. - PENETROX A is a natural (petroleum) base compound with evenly suspended zinc particles. It is recommended for aluminum to aluminum, aluminum to copper connections and aluminum conduit threads. It is not recommended for use with rubber or polyethylene insulated conductors. UL listed to 600V. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00CBKBZO2 | | Best Sellers Rank | #69,562 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #376 in Industrial Lubricants | | Color | silver | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars (14) | | Date First Available | April 11, 2013 | | Included Components | Product and Installation Sheet | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 10.5 ounces | | Item model number | PEN A13-8 | | Manufacturer | Burndy | | Material | Aluminum | | Number Of Pieces | 1 | | Part Number | PENA138 | | Product Dimensions | 7.47 x 2.04 x 2.04 inches | | Usage | Residential Grounding | | Warranty Description | 2 year manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Color:** silver - **Brand:** Progress Lighting - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Manufacturer:** Burndy - **UPC:** 781810592571 ## Images ![Burndy Pen A13-8 Oxide-Inhibiting Joint Compounds PENETROX A-13, 8 oz Container Size, Squeeze Bottle Container Type, Silver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/619cF7-4InL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ad description clarification *by R***E on March 23, 2025* The ad description, as of writing this, states: "PENETROX A is a natural (petroleum) base compound with..." which is TRUE.
