Krytox™ Specialty Aerospace Performance Lubricants are PFPE-based oils and greases that meet or exceed the strict requirements of the aerospace, aviation, and national defense industries. When the application simply cannot fail, trust in the proven performance of Krytox™ products.
Performance Aerospace Lubricants
The aerospace, aviation, and national defense (AAND) industries handle delicate and precise machinery and equipment. As such, lubricants must meet strict performance requirements corresponding to a MIL-SPEC number. The Krytox™ portfolio of synthetic grease and oil solutions is ideal for sensitive and complex aviation applications for engine components and electronics in aircraft and space equipment.
These synthetic perfluoropolyether-based (PFPE-based) lubricant solutions deliver incredibly high performance and meet several strict military specifications. The Krytox™ aerospace lubricants portfolio has a solution for optimal operation and control for equipment exposed to extremely high temperatures or widely varying environmental pressures.
Why Use a Krytox™ Aerospace Lubricant?
The MIL-SPEC lubrication performance delivered from the Chemours Krytox™ portfolio meets the critical requirements demanded by the aerospace industry.
Unrivaled stability across a wide temperature range with extreme highs and lows
Extreme-pressure performance in aviation and aerospace applications
Chemically and biologically inert
Resistant to vapor loss in a vacuum or at high altitude
The technological advances in aerospace equipment have some of the highest demands for lubricating performance in the industry today. The portfolio of synthetic fluids and greases from Krytox™ provides reliable and long-term performance across a range of aircraft components, including gears, electronic systems, O-rings, and bearings.
These highly engineered synthetic lubricants are formulated with a PFPE base oil, and the greases are thickened with a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) system. This unique combination of fluorinated compounds provides the ideal solution for extreme high- and low-temperature applications. It can perform for exceptionally long periods without relubrication or maintenance, which is essential for any equipment in suborbital, orbital, or deep space flight.
