Low Temperature Grease : Rheolube® 1000
Rheolube® 1000 is an ultrafiltered, long-lasting, MAC-based lubricant for gears and bearings in lower temperature Aerospace and Vacuum applications. Rheolube® 1000 is formulated with a specialized MAC fluid that combines the low vapor pressure and low outgassing of a PFPE, with the lubricity and film strength of a PAO, therefore making it ideal for use in applications where long-life is critical to the mission.
Applications
- Bearings
- Gears
Rheolube® 1000 Characteristics
- Good lubricity and film strength
- Excellent vacuum stability
- Excellent low temperature performance
- Low torque performance
