MOLYKOTE G-4501 FM Multi-Purpose Synthetic Grease
MOLYKOTE G-4501 FM Multi-Purpose Synthetic Grease is a high-performance synthetic grease formulated for diverse applications requiring reliable lubrication across a wide temperature range. It utilizes an aluminum complex thickener and incorporates white solid lubricants to enhance performance and protection of various machine elements, including bearings, gears, chains, and sliding mechanisms. This grease is particularly well-suited for use in food processing machinery.
Application is straightforward, utilizing standard methods such as brushes, grease guns, or automated dispensing equipment. For spray application, a sweeping motion ensures a thin, uniform coating, preventing over-application. The grease exhibits a broad operating temperature range of -40 to 150 degrees Celsius, and a base oil viscosity of 100 cSt at 40 degrees Celsius. Specifically for G-4501 FM, low-temperature torque is measured at 0.7 Nm at -40 degrees Celsius.
Product Key Properties: Aluminum-complex-thickened, uses white solids and PTFE as solid lubricants. Also, H1-certified through NSF for incidental food contact. Low-consistency formulation of MOLYKOTE G-4501 FM Multi-Purpose Synthetic Grease allows use in automatic dispensing systems. Provide good compatibility with most industrial and engineering substrates, including many plastic and rubber materials.
