PolySi Dielectric Grease Tubes
PolySi G-MAN Silicone Dielectric Greases and Non-Silicone Dielectric Greases are considered electronically neutral. These materials neither hinder nor promote the electrical performance of an existing system. The real goal for grease in an electrical interface is the ability to control two variables: fretting and corrosion. Fretting and corrosion cause more damage to stationary interfaces than any other failure mode. For this reason, lubrication of the interface is needed to prevent the corrosion caused by oxygen and mitigate the fretting and micro-movement in electrical connections. If metals are mated for an electrical application, grease will make the connection last. PolySi Technologies offers silicone and non-silicone dielectric greases.

PST-500 Silicone Dielectric Series:
dedicated line of silicone based greases
excellent water washout properties
wide temperature range (-40C-150C)
compatible with most rubbers and plastics
can be blended with various filling systems, including PTFE, to increase effectiveness
ideal for outdoor applications
Non-Silicone Dielectric Greases:
same benefits as silicone dielectric grease, but made without silicone for material compatibility (e.g., use on silicone rubber).
PST-576 Non-silicone dielectric grease is perfect for paint environments where no silicone is allowed
Dielectric Grease Applications:
Spark plugs (rubber boot of the plug wire), gaskets of multi-pin connectors in car and marine engines, rotors, distributor caps, speedometer cables, outdoor lights, trailer hitches, battery terminals, satellite TV dishes, coaxial cable, power utility high and low voltage connectors. For more information on applications, please see Industries and Applications.

PolySi G-MAN Damping Greases are a cost effective means for fine tuning tolerance, motion control, noise control and vibration in mechanical and electro-mechanical instruments. Damping greases, also referred to as motion control grease or noise control grease, reduce wear, seal out moisture and dust, and enhance motion control. A damping grease allows instruments to be more exact and operate smoothly. Using the right damping grease can reduce engineering and production costs, while enhancing quality and performance. Perceived quality is everything, and the feel of a part can greatly impact customer satisfaction.

Have you ever used a camera with a manual zoom lenses? The control you feel is not precision gearing but rather a damping grease. The damping grease actually reduces the amount of machining needed to correctly operate the gearing, thereby reducing product cost.

The accuracy of a variety of instruments, including medical equipment, can be dictated by the quality of the damping grease used in the instrumentation. In many industries, plastic gearing is replacing metal gearing for weight and cost reasons. The limitations of plastic and plastic gearing increase the importance of selecting the right damping grease.

Selecting a Damping Grease

The selection of a damping grease will depend on the temperature range of the application and the type of feel the designer wants the device to have when operated. While standard grease is slick, a damping grease is designed to be more sticky, so that force is needed to move through it.

PolySi G-MAN PST-600 series is broad enough to meet most damping requirements. However if needed, we can custom formulate to meet the exact specifications of your design, and in the long run save you money on instrumentation. For example, a silicone damping grease thickened with PTFE can be used in a high temperature, high viscosity application. Call today to discuss your specific application so that we recommend the right damping grease.

Damping Grease Applications:
Instruments, medical equipment, medical instruments, office equipment, photographic equipment, microscopes, potentiometers, appliances, automotive components, electrical switch devices (not sliding), automotive instrument panels, stereo equipment, and measurement equipment. For more information on applications, please see Industries and Applications.

Packaging options include: drums, pails, gallons, cans, bottles, tubes, unit dose, grease packets, grease cartridges, syringes, and custom design options.

Synthetic Greases: PAO, PAG, PFPE, PTFE
PolySi G-MAN Lubricants
PST synthetic green grease
PolySi G-MAN synthetic greases and lubricants are carefully engineered and designed to enhance your product's quality, value and reliability. PolySi synthetic lubricants have base fluids such as PAO, PAG, PFPE and Silicones. By combining these base fluids with gellants, ranging from PTFEs to lithium soap, PolySi G-MAN Lubricants has one of the broadest synthetic grease product lines in the market today.

For years, companies have relied on petroleum oils and greases for lubrication. However, due to advances in technology, petroleum materials often can't meet the required standards for lubrication. Synthetic hydrocarbons, also known as PAO's, have a wider temperature range, better water washout resistance, and lower wear properties than petroleum materials. Other reasons to choose a synthetic lubricant are that they provide good viscosity in varying temperature parameters, have a low tendency to carbonize, and provide strong chemical resistance. Selecting the right synthetic lubricant for your application can reduce product cost and improve product quality, thereby reducing warranty claims. Our technical experts can work with your engineers to find the most appropriate lubricant for your application. Call today to discuss your opportunity.
