MOLYKOTE L-1668FM Synthetic Blend Vacuum Pump Oil
MOLYKOTE L-1668FM Synthetic Blend Vacuum Pump Oil High-performance vacuum pump oil for extended maintenance intervals in corrosive and high-moisture environments. MOLYKOTE L-1668FM is a synthetic blend vacuum pump oil specifically formulated for rotary vane vacuum pumps operating in demanding conditions. Its unique formulation, combining a synthetic polyalphaolefin (PAO) base oil with mineral oil and anti-oxidant/anti-corrosion additives, provides robust viscosity and film thickness protection at normal operating temperatures. This results in extended oil drain intervals and reduced lubrication usage, contributing to lower maintenance costs. The oil's low vapor pressure further enhances performance.
The oil's reliable antifoam properties ensure stable operation, while its ISO 68 grade signifies its viscosity. Importantly, MOLYKOTE L-1668FM is free from intentionally added polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). For optimal performance, adherence to equipment manufacturer's maintenance and oil specifications is crucial, along with regular oil sample analysis to monitor lubricant condition and identify potential contamination.
