Apiezon AP100 Grease

Apiezon AP100 Grease is a silicone-free vacuum grease and lubricant. Containing PTFE, AP100 exhibits extremely high levels of lubricity and has been shown to provide eight times the level of lubrication offered by standard, petroleum-based lubricating greases.

Apiezon AP100 is designed for use at ambient temperatures (generally between 10 to 30°C / 50 to 86°F). If you are looking for a grease capable of performing at higher temperatures, Apiezon AP101 or Apiezon H Grease may be more appropriate.

Apiezon AP100 Grease: Ultra High Vacuum Lubricating Grease Properties

Apiezon AP100 Grease is a silicone-free ultra high vacuum lubricating grease which:

• has anti-seize properties, making it an effective protector and lubricant in ultra-high vacuums
• exhibits extremely high levels of lubricity
• demonstrates an extremely low vapour pressure of 7 x 10^-11 Torr at 20°C
• is recommended for use at ambient temperatures
• does not suffer from contamination problems associated with silicone based greases such as ‘creep’ or ‘carry over’
• is easy to clean and remove using hot water and an aqueous glassware detergent, hydrocarbon or chlorinated solvents
