Apiezon Grease; Type N

1,00 €

Similar to Type L and Type M, but Type N grease has a special additive which gives it a tenacious, rubbery consistency and provides an extra cushioning effect which absorbs vibrations in equipment, making N grease invaluable in fragile glass to glass joints, like burette taps, which continually risk fracture. Grease N is widely recognized and recommended as the cryogenic vacuum grease of choice.

Description

Excellent lubricants High purity, low vapor pressure – non-contamination in analysis The working temperature range of each grease is dependent on the grade that is used Easily applied, easily cleaned off Silicone free. This benefits scientific users because the risk of sample contamination and consequently the risk of interference in analytical techniques such as infra-red or mass spctrometry, etc. is avoided Approved by NASA and NATO
