Description
Klüberalfa GR Y VAC 2 – Special greases for vacuum applications
Klüberalfa GR Y VAC greases are white, homogeneous longterm greases based on perfluorinated polyether (PFPE) oils and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) thickener. Besides their good resistance to high temperature and aggressive media, Klüberalfa GR Y VAC greases show low evaporation under vacuum conditions. Klüberalfa GR Y VAC greases are made in three different NLGI classes, allowing component-specific selection for lifetime lubrication.

Benefits for your application
- Low evaporation under vacuum conditions
- High thermal stability
- Good resistance to aggressive media
- Neutral towards plastic materials
Application
Klüberalfa GR Y VAC are preferred greases for applications under vacuum, e.g. in components of the electro-mechanical industry.
Behaviour towards elastomers and plastics Lubricants based on perfluorinated polyether oils and polytetrafluoroethylene are generally regarded as neutral towards most elastomers and plastics (exception: perfluorinated rubber). Nevertheless we recommend testing compatibility with the material to be used, especially prior to series application.
