描述
Krytox GPL 105 is a high performance PFPE (Perfluoropolyether) general purpose oil, genuinely manufactured by Chemours and imported as original product. As an authorized distributor and trader, we supply genuine material with full traceability and direct access to official Chemours technical documentation.
This clear, colorless fluorinated synthetic oil is an ISO Grade 150 oil with a viscosity of 160 cSt at 40°C. It is part of the Krytox GPL 100–107 series of general purpose oils and contains no additives, making it exceptionally pure and suitable for the most demanding applications.
Krytox GPL 105 is a perfluoropolyether (PFPE) – also called perfluoro-alkylether (PFAE) or perfluoropolyalkylether (PFPAE). The polymer chain is completely saturated and contains only carbon, oxygen, and fluorine. On a weight basis, a typical Krytox oil contains 21.6% carbon, 9.4% oxygen, and 69.0% fluorine.
Krytox GPL 105 is non-reactive, non-flammable, safe in chemical and oxygen service, and long-lasting. It is NSF H1 certified for incidental food contact, making it suitable for food processing and pharmaceutical applications where incidental contact with food products may occur. With regular stock availability, we support both trial orders and large‑volume bulk shipments for automotive, industrial, food processing, aerospace, and demanding applications.

Material Advantages of Krytox GPL 105
What makes Krytox GPL 105 the preferred choice for high performance and food-grade lubrication applications? Below are its core practical advantages:
NSF H1 Food-Grade Certification for Sensitive Applications
Krytox GPL 105 is NSF H1 certified for incidental food contact, making it the ideal choice for food processing, pharmaceutical, and other sensitive applications where food safety is critical. This certification ensures compliance with the most stringent food safety standards.
Highest Viscosity in the GPL 100 Series
With an ISO Grade 150 and viscosity of 160 cSt at 40°C (18 cSt at 100°C), Krytox GPL 105 offers the highest viscosity in the GPL 100 series. This provides the thickest oil film for maximum load-carrying capacity and superior wear protection, making it suitable for the most demanding applications.
Extreme Temperature Performance
With an estimated useful temperature range from -36°C to 204°C (-33°F to 400°F), Krytox GPL 105 performs reliably in both cryogenic and elevated temperature environments. It survives short-term peak temperatures up to 220°C (429°F) , making it ideal for demanding high-temperature applications where conventional lubricants would fail.
Chemical Inertness & Non-Flammability
Krytox GPL 105 is chemically inert and does not easily react with most acids, alkalis, solvents, oxidizing gases, or chemical media. It is non-flammable and safe for use in oxygen service (LOX and GOX). The absence of hydrogen in the PFPE molecular structure greatly increases stability and renders the lubricants non-flammable with no flashpoint.
Extended Lubrication Intervals
Krytox GPL 105 exhibits significantly longer-lasting lubrication than mineral oil–based technology. This translates to extended lubrication intervals, reduced maintenance costs, and increased equipment life. Excellent film strength reduces wear and, under high loads, the viscosity increases to provide support and absorb the pressure.
Compatibility with Seals & Elastomers
Krytox GPL 105 is compatible with all types of seals, O-rings, valves, and seals, and does not damage plastics or elastomers.
Silicone-Free & Environmentally Inert
Krytox GPL 105 does not contain silicone, chlorine, or volatile organic compounds (VOC). It is not hazardous to the atmosphere or ozone layer and is biologically and environmentally inert.
High-Temperature Stability Provides Bottom-Line Savings
The fully fluorinated Krytox high-temperature stability provides bottom-line savings from improved reliability, and a reduction in grease usage and manpower through extended re-lubrication intervals.
