Next Generation of Lithium Soap Greases

The next generation of synthetic hydrocarbon grease thickened with lithium soap has been formulated and commercialized as Rheolube® 462. This new grease is designed for low-temperature applications exceeding the OEM requirement of -40°C. This advanced Nye technology offers advantages in applications such as rolling bearings for small motors, sliding surfaces, gear trains, switch gears, and electrical components such as window lifters, sun roofs, seats and fan flaps. The grease can also be used on many plastic/plastic gears or plastic/metal combinations.

Lubricant Solution for Electrical Connectors 

Rheotemp™ 768G has been fully validated through a testing protocol jointly developed by USCAR (The United States Council for Automotive Research, LLC); North American automotive OEMs including GM, Ford, and Chrysler; and major Automotive Connector Suppliers - Delphi, TE Connectivity, and Yazaki. This medium viscosity, synthetic hydrocarbon grease was designed for use in electrical contacts to meet the insertion force and resistance requirements of SAE/USCAR-2, revision 6, the performance standard for automotive electrical connectors.
