What is this product used for?▾
Lubrication between rubber and metal parts in pneumatic systems in aircraft, automotive and general industrial applications.
What is the operating temperature range?▾
-65 to 175 °C, per the DuPont technical data sheet for MOLYKOTE® 55 O-Ring Grease. See the linked datasheet for the full test conditions.
What container sizes are available?▾
Supplied by DuPont in: 100 g tube - 10 per carton; 1 kg can - 10 per carton; 3.6 kg pail - 4 per carton; 18 kg pail; 180 kg drum. Contact us for availability of a specific pack size.
Is this product food-grade certified?▾
Some Molykote products carry NSF H1 (incidental food contact) or NSF H2 (no food contact) approvals. Check the product datasheet for Molykote 55 O-Ring Grease specifically — Indus engineering will confirm on the RFQ. NEVER assume food-grade unless explicitly certified.
How does this compare to standard greases?▾
Molykote greases are formulated for specific applications (chemical-resistant, food-grade, high/low temperature, EP, etc.) where standard mineral greases would fail. Match the product to your operating conditions.
Is Indus an authorised Molykote distributor?▾
Yes — Indus Hydraulics is an authorised Molykote distributor in the UAE. All Molykote products supplied by Indus are factory-original, with valid batch records and shelf-life dates. Counterfeit Molykote is prevalent in the regional market — always insist on authorised-distributor channels.
What is the shelf life?▾
Most Molykote greases and pastes have a 24-36 month shelf life from manufacture date when stored in the original sealed container at +5°C to +35°C. Anti-friction coatings (liquid pre-coat form) typically have 12 months. Bonded coatings already applied to parts are essentially indefinite. Indus rotates stock — newer batches go to the customer.
Lead time?▾
Common Molykote products are ex-stock from Dubai. Less-common specialty products typically ship within 2-3 weeks from RFQ confirmation (factory order from DuPont).
