MOLYKOTE 3452 Chemical Resistant Valve Grease
MOLYKOTE 3452 is a fluorosilicone grease engineered for demanding applications requiring exceptional chemical resistance. This lubricant is compatible with a wide range of gaskets, seals, and packings, and exhibits strong resistance to washout from water, fuels, oils, and solvents. Its robust formulation ensures reliable lubrication and extended service life even in harsh operating environments.
Application is straightforward, utilizing conventional grease application methods such as brushing, grease guns, or automated applicators. MOLYKOTE 3452 maintains its lubricating properties across a serviceable temperature range of -20 to 450 F (-29 to 232 C). The product resists degradation from various harsh chemicals including solvents, acids, and chlorides, as well as low-pressure steam and condensate. Storage below 90 F (32 C) ensures a 60-month shelf life. Minor oil separation during storage may occur but does not impact lubricating effectiveness; simply stir before use.
