MOLYKOTE 3451 Chemical Resistant Bearing Grease
MOLYKOTE 3451 is a fluorosilicone grease engineered for demanding applications in anti-friction bearings. Its formulation provides exceptional chemical resistance, ensuring reliable lubrication even when exposed to water, fuels, oils, and various solvents. This grease is suitable for bearings operating across a broad spectrum of temperatures, loads, and speeds, maintaining performance from -40 F to 450 F (-40 C to 232 C). Application is simple, compatible with conventional methods such as brushing, grease guns, or automated applicators.
The product boasts a 60-month shelf life when stored at or below 90 F (32 C). It's crucial to remember that MOLYKOTE 3451 is not suitable for surfaces intended for subsequent painting.
