MOLYKOTE® 101 - Performance Greases

Greases are formulated lubricants that provide particular performance attributes where less viscous oils simply do not work.  MOLYKOTE^® greases are comprised of three basic types of ingredients, a high-quality base oil, a thickener system, and various additives for improved performance.  These versatile lubricants have slightly different formulations, however each grease follows a similar component breakdown of 80% to 90% base oil, 10% to 20% thickener, and 3% to 5% additive. 

MOLYKOTE^® Greases are ideal solutions for industrial applications where low viscosity fluids don’t provide adequate protection or stay-in-place longevity.  In the simplest terms, a grease acts essentially like a sponge, a thickener system holds the lubricating oil in place and under pressure will release the fluid to prevent metal surface wear & damage.
