Lightning Grease

Lightning Grease is great for applications where very low break-out torque, low temperature, stick slip and wear are required. Field tests show that Lightning Grease extends the life of crucial machine parts.

Lightning Grease

Lightning Grease (a jelled version of Tufoil) works where all others fail. Field tests show that Lightning Grease extends the life of crucial machine parts.

Lightning Grease significantly lowers operating temperatures, thereby extending machinery and bearing life. This easily sheared grease is great for applications where low break-out torque, low temperature, stick slip and wear are required.

Use Lightning Grease on:

  • fine bearings
  • gears
  • steppers
  • servo bearings
  • robots

Lightning Grease is also great for old machines. Put a drop on the surface, work the mechanism, and wipe off the excess with a clean tissue. Repeat until the tissue is no longer discolored by dirt and metal debris left by the old lubricant. With just a dab on all the surfaces and old sticky gear boxes, bearings and mechanisms are brought back to life.
