MOLYKOTE® HP-300 Grease and G-8101 Grease are now BAM approved

MOLYKOTE® HP-300 Grease and G-8101 Grease have undergone rigorous testing by the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) and have been approved for use in oxygen-rich environments, such as pumps, valves, and compressors.

These fully fluorinated greases are compatible with a wide range of plastics, exhibit exceptional resistance to chemicals and solvents, and demonstrate minimal deterioration due to oxidation, making them ideal for long-term lubrication needs. BAM conducted two separate test series for each grease, with each series comprising five consecutive impacts. The findings are as follows:

MOLYKOTE® HP-300 Grease fully fluorinated grease provides extraordinary performance under extreme conditions. NLGI Grade 2 - Linear PFPE based grease with a base oil viscosity of 160 cSt at 40 C, PTFE thickened, uses PTFE as solid lubricants. HP-300 Grease has been tested by BAM and approved for the use in oxygen rich environments e.g. in pumps, valves, compressors. The test results ensure that HP-300 Grease is safe and stable when exposed to oxygen under high pressure and elevated temperatures e.g. under 50 bars at 60 °C or 10 bars at 300 °C.

MOLYKOTE® G-8101 Grease is an extreme high temperature grade PFPE grease with much lower evaporation than normal PFPE grease. G-8101 Grease has been tested by BAM and approved for the use in oxygen rich environments e.g. in pumps, valves, compressors. The test results ensure that G-8101 Grease is safe and stable when exposed to oxygen under high pressure and elevated temperatures e.g. under 50 bars at 60 °C or 25 bars at 300 °C.
