Overview
Krytox™ AUT 2045 is a white grease based on perfluoropolyether (PFPE). Like most Krytox™ greases, it combines the base oil with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) powder as a thickener. The use of PFPE as a base oil provides superior chemical and thermal stability to all Krytox™ grease product lines.
Krytox™ AUT 2045 Grease is based on ISO 100–grade PFPE oil and contains no additives. It is suitable for automotive equipment and heavy transportation parts, such as viscous fan clutch bearings, alternators, and idler bearings.

Features & Benefits
- Unsurpassed oxidation resistance of base oil
- Will not oxidize and gum up with age and use
- Exceptional thermal stability
- Operating temperature range from −44°C to 200°C (−47°F to 392°F)
- Advanced PTFE thickener—will not oxidize or break down with shear
- Lubrication-for-life potential—typically, no need to relubricate bearings during lifetime of electric motor
Problems Solved
Automotive grease failure and shortened operational life
Grease–elastomer incompatibility and degradation
Poor thermal stability and grease breakdown or failure
Applications
