Krytox™ lubricants for the automotive industry

Krytox™ high performance oils and greases are designed to meet the lubrication needs of the automotive industry. These synthetic perfluoropolyether (PFPE) lubricants work where other lubrication chemicals do not. They prevent part failure under extreme conditions, increase the life of critical components and reduce noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) problems in all vehicle assemblies.

Krytox™ formulations are tailored to individual automotive applications so they work under their unique operating conditions. Important variables when selecting a lubricant include the viscosity grade of the PFPE oil (based on the International Organization for Standard [ISO]), the unique additives that provide varying degrees of corrosion and/or wear protection, and the amount and type of thickener used in the grease formulations.

Depending on the performance requirements of the application, a grade of Krytox™ lubricant can be selected that performs at both low and high temperatures, prevents wear and corrosion, reduces noise and vibration, and resists washout from weathering and automotive fluids.
