Beeswax contains natural oils that are superior lubricants and make opening and closing your drysuit zipper easy and it protects the zipper in ways other lubricants simply can t. Beeswax is made up of three main components. The first one is palmitate, an ester of palmitic acid, which is a common fatty acid, basically an oil which is a great lubricant. The second one is palmitoleate, another ester of palmitoleic acid which is again, another fatty acid much related to the first one, again a naturally occuring oil. The third component is oleate esters, which are esters (salts) of oleic acid, which is again, a fatty acid. A good example of oleic acid is olive oil. All of these components help to lubricate and protect your zipper.

SeaBee™ Natural Beeswax Zipper Lube is the perfect combination of both. Nature has provided the perfect lubricant that contains natural oils produced by bees to protect and lubricate your zipper. Bees fly 150,000 miles just to produce 1 lb. of beeswax & SeaBee Natural Beeswax Zipper Lube is the perfect zipper lubrication resulting from all that work!

When encountering colder temperatures, hold your SeaBee™ Lube in your closed fist for 2 or 3 minutes. This will soften the wax and give it the perfect consistency to perfectly lubricate your zipper.

Directions: Firmly rub SeaBee™ Natural Beeswax along zipper & between the teeth. Apply to both sides of open zipper until you see a thin layer of wax. When finished – open & close zipper 3 or 4 times. Repeat every 2 or 3 dives. For outdoor equipment, follow the above directions & repeat before every trip.
