Krytox™ XHT-BDZ Grease
Krytox™ XHT-BDZ Grease is a special extreme high temperature grease with low oil evaporation, thickened with a non-melting additive allowing use at temperatures above the melting point of most common greases.
Krytox™ XHT-BD has a viscosity of 1023 cSt @40°C, highest performance in the Krytox™ XHT-BD series.

Product Overview
Krytox™ XHT-BD series are special extreme high temperature greases with low oil evaporation. Krytox™ XHT-BDZ grease uses a special non-melting high temperature thickener. Krytox™ XHT-BD series greases are nonflammable and chemically inert. Krytox™ allows extended lubrication intervals and longer equipment life. Krytox™ XHT-BDZ greases are designed for use where the temperatures are in the 288°C (500°F) range and higher, where there is a danger of melting the standard PTFE thickener. The base oil is the most viscous oil in the Krytox™ XHT-BD series providing good viscosity and lower evaporation at high temperatures.
End Markets: Chemical & Petrochemical; Consumer Products; Energy Generation & Utility; General Industrial; Heavy Industry; Oil & Gas; Pulp & Paper; Transportation
Applications
Krytox™ XHT-BD greases are for use in low speed bearings or in pillow housings and will shear at high speeds, causing loss of oil in sealed bearings.
The oil in the grease can begin to slowly evaporate at temperatures above 360 °C (680°F), and this will occur at an increasing rate as temperatures increase. It can withstand intermittent spikes up to and above 400°C (752°F). Re-lubrication could be required at these temperatures to achieve optimum life.
Related Applications: Assembly & Run-in; Bearings; Chains; Chassis; Compressors; High Temp & Alloys; Plain Bearings, Bushing & Sleeves; Slides, Guides, & Tracks; Spindles; Vacuum & Vacuum Pumps; Valves, Packings, Seals & O-Rings
Features & Benefits
Krytox™ XHT-BDZ Grease has excellent lubrication over a broad temperature range.
Due to their low surface tensions, Krytox™ base oils easily wet metallic surfaces. Because of their inertness, Krytox™ base oils have little or no adverse effect on metals.
Testing of metals at 340°C (644°F) in the absence of air has shown little evidence of corrosion. The presence of molybdenum in the metals improves corrosion resistance further.

Krytox™ Greases
Krytox™ greases are nontoxic lubricants that maintain their lubricity and viscosity properties to reduce maintenance costs associated with re-lubrication, component failure, and downtime in demanding applications. They are created by thickening synthetic perfluoropolyether-based oil (PFPE) with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) powder.
