Features & Benefits

Product Highlights

Silicone Grease 3005 is inert to virtually all substrates with the exception of silicone rubber. It is widely used for lubricating O‐rings, gaskets, valves and seals as well as surfaces that require excellent lubricating properties over long periods without drying out. It is not recommended for metal‐to‐metal lubrication or on surfaces that will be painted or finished.

Benefits
  • Wide service temperature range & high resistance to oxidation.
  • Excellent lubricant and sealant for harsh environments such as down-hole and subsea environments.
  • Withstands frequent wash-downs and hose-downs.
  • Approved for use in Food Processing and Food Packaging applications facilities where incidental contact with food may occur.
  • 100% PDMS Silicone Grease Compound: contains no solvent.
  • Safe for O-rings, gaskets, valves and seals.
  • Protects against corrosion and carbon buildup on food sealing equipment.
