KRY-GPL204-1/2OZ - Krytox GPL-204 Grease, 1/2 oz. Tube
Compatibility with Elastomers and Plastics
Krytox® is compatible with all elastomeric seal materials and engineering plastics. The limiting factor when using Krytox® with any material is the thermal stability of the elastomer or plastic.
Krytox® performance lubricants are compatible with the following common elastomers and plastics:
- Fluorosilicone
- Ethylacrylate
- Methyl Silicone
- Viton® A Fluoroelastomer
- Urethane
- Hypalon® Synthetic Rubber
- Hytrel® Polyester Elastomer
- Butyl 325
- Neoprene WRT
- Nycar 100 (Buna N)
- EPT, Peroxide Cure
- Nordel® Hydrocarbon Rubber
- Delrin® Acetal
- Zytel® Nylon
- Vespel®
- PTFE® Fluoropolymer
- Kalrez® Fluoroelastomer*
* 15 -20 vol% swelling at high temperatures when immersed.
Compatibility with Metals
Because of their low surface tensions, Krytox® lubricants easily wet metallic surfaces. Krytox® lubricants are chemically inert and therefore have no adverse effect on metals when the temperature is below 288°C (550°F).
Above 288°C (550°F), many alloy steels, stainless steels, and other metals such as aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, nickel alloy, and cobalt alloy can be used with Krytox®.
Demonstrated Results
Krytox® technology provides state-of-the art performance for mechanical systems under harsh conditions. From gearboxes, bearings and chains - to seals, actuators, valves, and more - every day Krytox® serves the specialized needs of:
- Pulp and paper mills and converting plants
- Automotive components
- Military and commercial aircraft
- Chemical plants
- Power plants
- Turbine generators
- Oxygen, chlorine, and reactive gas equipment and components. DuPont lubricants have been independently tested by organizations such as BOC, Air Liquide, BAM, NASA, General Dynamics, and Praxair and proven acceptable for oxygen and other reactive chemical compatibility.
