Features and Benefits

  •     A range of Apiezon® greases is offered for use on high vacuum systems and for many general applications in the laboratory.
  •     The high purity greases are non-toxic, are easy to apply and clean off and have long shelf lives.


Applications

  •     Lubrication of glass and metal taps in vacuum systems
  •     Sealing polymer joints in vacuum systems
  •     Leak detection
  •     Protecting metal contacts in vacuum-encapsulated relays
  •     Sealing polished and ground glass/metal surfaces
  •     Optical surfaces in vacuum systems and laser systems - does not cause clouding (L and M greases only)
  •     Non vacuum uses include lubrication of glass and metal taps in laboratory, medical and industrial applications
  •     Good “gettering” qualities (absorbs grease and chemical impurities) - ideal for electronics industry
