NyeTorr® 6350EL

To enable longer missions and ensure mission success, design engineers will need to carefully consider the expected life and reliability of their mechanisms. To support the growing space industry, Nye developed an ultra-high-vacuum PFPE grease, NyeTorr® 6350EL, to increase the durability, functionality and reliability of any rolling or sliding space mechanism with an overall goal of prolonging mechanism life for the following:

  • Precision bearings
  • Gears/actuators
  • Ball/lead screws

Advantages

  • Extend functional life of components
  • Reduce friction & wear
  • Increase load-carrying capabilities
  • Improve durability and reliability 
  • Ensure extremely low outgassing
  • Provide excellent corrosion protection
