About Lubricants

About Grease

About Oil

Apply directly to seals and O-rings to extend service life by preventing drying and cracking.

NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 1 is about the consistency of tomato paste. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter. NLGI 3 is about the consistency of vegetable shortening. It is good for tight-tolerance plug valves and high-pressure seals.

Mineral-oil-based grease, derived from petroleum, is more economical than synthetic-oil-based grease. Synthetic-oil-based grease lasts longer than mineral-oil-based grease and withstands a wider range of temperatures.

Grease with lithium thickener offers good heat and moisture resistance. Grease with silica thickener resists washing off and reduces corrosion in wet environments. Grease with barium thickener is for use with silicone rubber O-rings and seals in open systems.

Grease with PTFE has small particles of PTFE that reduce friction and help the grease maintain its lubricity. Grease with zinc neutralizes acid and is a good replacement for leaded grease.

Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range. Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry.

Jet-Lube Ezy-Open is a grease-like liquid that contains detergent and PTFE additives to clean more effectively than grease while it lubricates. Since it is a liquid, it does not have a NLGI viscosity grade, but is less viscous than anything else in our offering.

Vacuum Seal and O-Ring Grease

A firm consistency and resistance to evaporation make this grease ideal for vacuum applications, such as flow meters, vacuum and pressure systems, and laboratory equipment. Apply directly to seals and O-rings to prevent drying and cracking.

NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 3 is about the consistency of vegetable shortening and is comparable to Fomblin grease.

Grease with PTFE thickener resists aggressive acids, bases, and solvents.

Grease lubricates most efficiently below the maximum temperature. Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry.

Chemical-Resistant Seal and O-Ring Grease

Fluorocarbon and fluorinated polymer thickeners add chemical resistance to this grease. It remains intact when exposed to water and most solvents and chemicals. Apply directly to plastic and rubber seals and O-rings to prevent drying and cracking.

NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter. NLGI 3 is about the consistency of vegetable shortening.

Grease with moly (molybdenum disulfide) has excellent resistance to wear and can withstand high-load and high-pressure applications. Grease with PTFE has small particles of PTFE that reduce friction and help the grease maintain its lubricity. It’s not for use with ketones, such as acetone and MEK.

Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range. Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry.

Clean Room Seal and O-Ring Grease

Highly pure, this grease is chemically inert, so it won’t contaminate sensitive environments or react with other substances. Due to its low vapor pressure, it resists evaporation, even at high temperatures. Apply directly to seals and O-rings to prevent drying and cracking.

NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter.

Grease lubricates most efficiently below the maximum temperature. Nonmelting grease can be used at temperatures above the maximum temperature briefly, but then will break down more quickly.

Seal and O-Ring Oil

Apply directly to seals and O-rings to extend service life by preventing drying and cracking. This oil can be used with virtually any rubber polymer, including Buna-N and neoprene.

Viscosity is the thickness of an oil. Rated at 100,000 centistokes (cSt), this oil has the consistency of honey, so it stays in place.

Assembly Lubricants

Coat tight-fitting metal parts, such as gears, clutches, and press-fit assemblies, with these lubricants before sliding them together to make assembly easier. Once assembled, they provide initial lubrication in equipment before oil has a chance to flow.

Mineral-oil-based lubricants, derived from petroleum, are more economical than synthetic-oil-based lubricants. Synthetic-oil-based lubricants last longer than mineral-oil-based lubricants.

Lubricants with moly (molybdenum disulfide) withstand high-pressure applications and have excellent wear resistance. Lubricants with graphite have additional pressure resistance and excellent temperature resistance. All Dupont Molykote lubricants have a high load-carrying capacity. Molykote M-77 Paste is commonly used on brakes and clutches; it is compatible with material that is damaged by mineral oil, such as natural rubber, SBR, and EPDM. As a paste it lubricates to 445° F; after drying, it continues to lubricate at temperatures up to 660° F. Molykote G-Rapid Plus Paste is often used to assemble threaded spindles, gears, screws, and pumps. It can be used as an initial lubricant. Molykote DX Paste has good corrosion resistance. It provides long-lasting lubrication after assembly.

Food Industry Assembly Lubricants

For use in food-processing and preparation areas, these lubricants are rated for incidental food contact. Coat tight-fitting parts with them before sliding together to make assembly easier.

Mineral-oil-based lubricants have a high load-carrying capacity and can lubricate sliding loads at low-to-medium speeds.
