LOX-8 Lubricant NLGI 00 is an oxygen- and harsh chemicals-safe grease for use in low viscosity applications such as ball valves, flange gaskets, metal-on-metal contact, robotics slides which use enclosed gear drives operating at low speeds, and open gearing.

LOX-8 Lubricant is a lubricant that is highly recommended where oxygen or harsh chemicals such as chlorine or powerful oxidizers are present. It is the product of choice in applications where critical safety and resistance to aggressive chemicals are primary requirements. Providing superior performance as a lubricant, LOX-8 withstands both high extreme temperatures and high pressure.

Specifically formulated for wet conditions, but can also be used in dry conditions. It is a high density lubricant expressly designed for severe high-pressure applications.

  • Odorless, noncorrosive, waterproof, non-migrating, and nonflammable
  • NSF approved for use in food processing facilities
  • LOX-8 Lubricant NLGI 00 meets MIL-PRF-27617G specifications.

Fluoramics’ LOX-8 Lubricant is now available in two thicknesses. The original formula of Fluoramics’ LOX-8 Lubricant is NLGI 00, and NLGI 2 is a NEW thickness. NLGI — what do these numbers mean when it comes to greases?

Description

LOX-8 Lubricant NLGI 00 is engineered to lubricate in harsh-chemical applications where extreme acids or powerful oxidizers are used. It prevents stainless steel galling and withstands high pressures, and both high extreme and cryogenic deep freeze temperatures. It is oxygen-safe, waterproof, and versatile, making it an all-purpose plumbing and O-ring lubricant. Works great with oil-based systems, hydraulic oils, and fuels. LOX-8 is recommended for use as both a lubricant and as a sealant by The Chlorine Institute members.
