Also known as dielectric grease, use insulating grease to lubricate and protect electrical systems. It resists water and corrosion. This grease can be used on most rubber and plastic.

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

Dielectric strength measures the maximum voltage a grease can withstand without losing its insulating properties. The higher the dielectric strength, the better its quality as an insulator.

Grease lubricates most efficiently below the maximum temperature.

Molykote 5 Compound is for use on insulators, bushings, and high-current switches.
