These are the specific fluids used by major drive unit manufacturers.

Using the commonly available science project type ferrofluid results in an overdamped output and can soften drive unit adhesive - always double check the origin.

Ferrofluid is a cooling / damping compound used in the magnetic gap of many tweeters to increase power handling and smooth out the frequency response; it has a tendency to thicken with age, gradually reducing tweeter output to zero. Many old tweeters from the 1980s/90s can be restored to perfect working order by carefully dismantling and cleaning out the old coagulated fluid then replacing with fresh.

This refill kit comprises a high accuracy syringe pre-filled with Ferrofluid specifically formulated for high fidelity tweeter application. There is sufficient in the syringe for 2 tweeters & a micro applicator nozzle is supplied.
