Overview
Krytox™ 240AA Grease is a pure-white, fluorinated synthetic perfluoropolyether (PFPE) lubricant providing complete nonreactivity and nonflammable performance for applications that demand consistency and reliability. Krytox™ 240AA is a white, buttery grease with all the same properties as the 143 series base oils.
Krytox™ 240AA aerospace grease exhibits best-in-class safety in chemical and oxygen service and delivers extremely long-lasting operational performance compared to conventional mineral oil–based lubricants and aviation greases.
