Product Description
MOLYKOTE G-1023 Grease is a white PAO/lithium-soap grease for lubricating plastic-to-metal parts and steel-to-GFRP contacts. Its typical service range is -45 to 120 deg C, with 30 cSt base-oil viscosity and 280 penetration by JIS K 2220. The grease combines low friction and reduced noise at steel/GFRP interfaces and can be applied by brush, spatula, or automatic dispensing equipment. It is used on automotive slides and related plastic/metal mechanisms where the material pairing and stated temperature range match the assembly.
Key features
- Steel/GFRP Friction Control: The grease is specified for low-friction, reduced-noise contact between steel and glass-fiber-reinforced plastic.
- -45 to 120 deg C Service: The typical service-temperature range covers low-temperature starts through elevated-temperature operation.
- Brush or Automatic Application: Application methods include brush, spatula, and automatic dispensing equipment.
Applications / Suitable for
- Automotive slide mechanisms.
- Plastic-to-metal lubricated contacts.
- Steel-to-GFRP sliding interfaces.
