Apiezon PFPE 501 vacuum grease (EMS)

PFPE 501 is a chemically inert, high temperature and extreme pressure lubricant. With an upper operating temperature of 250°C and vapour pressure of 1.3 x 10-12 at 25°C, it is robust, versatile and can be used for sealing and lubricating under the most extreme operating conditions. This includes environments where aggressive chemicals and strong oxidising agents are regularly used.Note: Apiezon PFPE 501 is a replacement for Braycote 803.Features:PFPE basedHigh temperature lubricantUsed in oxygen rich environmentsUltra high vacuumChemically inertExtreme pressureWide temperature rangeBenefits:NLGI No.: 2 Penetration P60: 280 Typical working temperature range: -15 to 250°CVapour pressure @ 25°C: 1.3 x 10-12TorrRelative density @ 25°C: 2.0034 ball weld point (load) ASTM D2596: 8...
