OEMs Choose NyoGel® 760G to Prevent Electrical Failures
The Leading Connector Grease
When parts need to be repaired or routinely serviced, OEMs must be prepared to issue recommended products and solutions. These bulletins play an important role in ensuring that dealerships or service providers provide their customers with the right solution that will solve current issues and/or prevent future problems from occurring.
While almost all connectors work flawlessly when cars are rolling fresh off the assembly line, the true reliability of the electrical system of a car only becomes apparent after the cars are exposed to their harsh everyday operating conditions:
- Constant vibration and shock
- Extreme temperatures & humidity
- Exposure to ice melt, saltwater, dirt and dust
Over many decades, Nye has helped several prominent OEMs with their costly recall campaigns by providing a field fix for connector failures that could have been avoided by using Nye's Connector Grease, NyoGel® 760G, in the initial design. NyoGel® 760G is the universal standard for dielectric grease specified by leading OEMs across many industries. The grease was engineered to improve the functionality, reliability, and longevity of electrical connectors, switches, printed circuit boards, and wire nuts.
