    Clean Room Grease

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Grease. Clean Room Grease.
    Highly pure and with no additives to contaminate sensitive environments, use this grease in clean rooms and electronic assembly workstations. It is nonconductive, chemically inert, and can withstand extreme temperature swings. This long-lasting grease also has an indefinite shelf life.
    Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range.
    2 NLGI Grade—NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter.
    Nonmelting—Nonmelting grease can be used at temperatures above the maximum temperature briefly, but then will break down more quickly.
    Dielectric Strength—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.

    Penetrating Lubricants for Electrical Applications

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Penetrating Lubricants. Penetrating Lubricants for Electrical Applications.
    Protect electrical components—these lubricants insulate and block moisture, preventing electrical malfunctions. They cut through dirt, grease, and rust to clean connections and relays, leaving behind a thin film for long-lasting protection.
    Cannot Be Sold Outside United States—These lubricants cannot be sold outside the United States due to product labeling requirements.
    Dielectric Strength—Dielectric strength measures the maximum voltage a lubricant can withstand without losing its insulating properties. The higher the dielectric strength, the better its quality as an insulator.
