Use this grease in areas where there is the possibility of contact with food. Also known as dielectric grease, it lubricates and protects 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 1 is about the consistency of tomato paste. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter. 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 that is NSF Registered H1 and grease that meets FDA Compliant 21 CFR 178.3570 are rated for incidental contact with food. Grease that meets NSF/ANSI 51 and FDA Compliant 21 CFR 175.300 are rated for direct contact with food. Grease that meets NSF/ANSI 61 is certified for use with components that come into contact with drinking water.

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.

DuPont Molykote 4 Electrical Insulating Compound also acts as a moisture barrier.

A high silver content gives this grease excellent conductivity for applications where electricity and heat transfer are required. It is suitable for ESD (electrostatic discharge) and EMI (electromagnetic interference) shielding applications. Product regulations restrict sales to the listed jurisdictions/areas.

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

Electrical resistivity is a measure of how well a material opposes the flow of electricity. The lower the rating, the more electricity it conducts.

Thermal conductivity measures a material’s ability to transfer heat. The higher the rating, the more heat it transfers.

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.

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.

Copper allows these lubricants to conduct electricity, while graphite gives them good chemical and corrosion resistance. Also known as thread lubricants, antiseize lubricants prevent threaded fasteners and close-fitting parts from locking together due to corrosion, contamination, or heat.

Loctite® C5-A Copper-Based Anti-Seize lubricants can be used with salt water and petroleum-based chemicals. LB 8065 comes as a stick for no-mess application.

Lubricants that meet MIL-A-907 and MIL-PRF-907 have been tested to prevent corrosion of copper and for antiseize properties when used with steel nuts and studs.

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.

Electrical resistivity is a measure of how well a material opposes the flow of electricity. The lower the rating, the more electricity it conducts.

Lubricants that cannot be sold to the areas listed exceed local regulatory limits on VOC (volatile organic compounds).

A safe alternative to mercury in thermometers and thermostats, gallium transfers heat and electricity without toxic vapor that can be inhaled. Also known as Galinstan. Its low melting point means it's liquid at room temperature. When used next to parts that generate concentrated heat, it dissipates the heat quickly, making it good thermal interface material. It also allows electricity to pass throughout it, so it's often used in switches and electronics that must bend and flex.

Gallium clings to both metallic and nonmetallic surfaces such as glass and quartz. However, it eats away at most metal when used at high temperatures and dissolves aluminum even at ambient temperatures.

When choosing gallium, keep in mind its composition. The higher the gallium and indium content, the better it is at transferring heat. Gallium with tin reduces the melting point, but also decreases how well it transfers heat.
