Klüber Introduces Silicone Greases

Noria news wires

Klϋber Lubrication recently introduced a new silicone grease intended for automotive applications, including cables, slideways, seals and window regulators.

Arosta 471 is based on silicone oil and a special lithium thickener. Formulated to offer oxidation stability and water resistance, it is compatible with various rubber and plastic materials, not including silicone rubbers.

The new grease features a wide service temperature range, resisting high temperatures and ensuring smooth running of components at low temperatures. By forming a protective layer against atmospheric attacks on rubber, it also is designed to provide noise and vibration dampening performance, reducing friction and preventing squeaking noises.

In addition, Klϋber recently unveiled a new lubricating grease that is neutral in odor and taste for valves and fittings in sanitary applications, such as drinking water valves.

Unisilkon LCA 3801 is based on silicone oil and a calcium soap. It provides wetting in narrow lubricating gaps and friction points that are difficult to reach. Approved for use in all friction points exposed to water or in permanent contact with drinking water, the grease also offers proper sealing and viscosity, allowing it to achieve uniform operational smoothness with cold or hot water.
