描述
Krytox XHT-SX Grease is an extreme high-temperature PFPE (perfluoropolyether) grease from Chemours’ Krytox performance lubricants portfolio, 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. For more product options and company information, please visit our website at https://szrqchem.com/.
Krytox XHT-SX Grease is a special high-temperature grease with ultra-low oil evaporation that provides long bearing life and is compatible with most elastomers and plastics. The base oil is an extremely viscous PFPE oil (738 cSt at 40°C) that provides excellent viscosity retention and lower evaporation at high temperatures. PTFE is the standard thickener, and the grease is made to a standard NLGI Grade 2.
Krytox XHT-SX is an extension of the Krytox GPL 240 series and GPL 20X series, but is designed to give higher performance in the 204–302°C (400–575°F) range. While most petroleum-based products degrade below 99°C (210°F), Krytox XHT-SX Grease operates continuously from -10°C to 300°C (14°F to 572°F) and is designed to work best at temperatures over 200°C (400°F). The grease is nonflammable, oxygen-compatible, and chemically inert.
Krytox XHT-SX Grease is NSF H-1 registered for incidental food contact, making it suitable for applications where food contact is unavoidable. It contains no additives and is an ideal lubricant when there is a potential for chemical–lubricant interaction between process steps.
