"One of Nye's principles we've always appreciated is,
'The best lubricant for the application.'"

Technical Advisor, Shell Global Solutions
Co-Inventor of Pennzane Synthesized Hydrocarbon Fluid X-2000

From zero gravity to virtual reality, PennzaneŽ Fluids Technology provides the core of lubrication systems for the most advanced and evolving technologies including space mechanisms, vacuum manufacturing of semiconductors, computer hard drives and magnetic disks.

Developed by Shell Global Solutions and now distributed worldwide exclusively by Nye Lubricants as a family of Pennzane -based oils and greases in a range of viscosities, for use in environments requiring low volatility, wide viscosity range, and performance additive flexibility. Nye was the first manufacturer to formulate and commercialize lubricants with Pennzane fluids and since the 1990s has worked with NASA scientists to test the properties of Pennzane fluids.
