Low-Temperature Performance
Using synthetic fluids with a very high viscosity index (VI) – such as phenylmethyl-silicone base oils, which can operate in temperatures near -73°C – select MOLYKOTE® Specialty Lubricants can handle low-temperature applications.
Many of our lubricants are tested for low-temperature torque values in extreme environmental conditions. These MOLYKOTE® lubricants continue to perform where many other lubricant chemistries solidify and inhibit movement.
Watch to see how MOLYKOTE® 33 Medium Extreme Low Temperature Grease protects rolling elements and outperforms the competition.
MOLYKOTE® 33 is a grease for use under a wide range of temperature conditions for light-load applications where there is metal-to-metal or metal-to-plastic friction at low to high speeds.
