LOX-8 Grease is a PTFE grease 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.
Used in environments where an extended service life is important, such as medical, nuclear, and other high-tech fields, as well as chemical processing, industrial gases, and other aggressive applications.
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.
Typical Applications:
- Greasing oxygen service bearings
- Valves
- O-rings
- Pumps
- Regulators
Typical Properties:
LOX-8 is tinted green, odorless, noncorrosive, and waterproof. It is non-migrating, remaining where it is applied. Ideal for where repetitive assembly and disassembly are required. Nonflammable and nontoxic.
- Stable up to 550ºF, LOX-8 has been tested and certified for use in gaseous and liquid oxygen by NASA (ASTM G72) and also by BAM (German Federal Institue for Materials Testing).
