MOLYKOTE 3451 Chemical Resistant Bearing Grease
MOLYKOTE 3451 is a fluorosilicone grease engineered for demanding applications in anti-friction bearings. Its formulation provides superior chemical resistance, ensuring reliable lubrication even when exposed to water, fuels, oils, and various solvents. This grease is specifically designed to withstand extreme operating conditions, including wide temperature fluctuations, high loads, and diverse speeds. The product's exceptional chemical inertness makes it suitable for environments where other lubricants would fail.
MOLYKOTE 3451 offers a reliable lubrication range from -40 F to 450 F (-40 C to 232 C). Application is simple, utilizing standard methods such as brushing, grease guns, or automated applicators. The grease boasts a 60-month shelf life when stored at or below 90 F (32 C). Important Note: Avoid application to surfaces intended for subsequent painting.
