Klübertemp GR AR 555 Vacuum Grease –
Temp Range (-20 to +250 (°C))
Multi-purpose lubricant for high-temperature applications
Benefits
- For use at high operating temperatures up to 250°C
- For applications exposed to aggressive media
Description
Klübertemp GR AR 555 is a white, homogeneous long-term grease based on a perfluorinated polyether oil (PFPE) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
Klübertemp GR AR 555 offers good corrosion protection and high evaporation stability especially for high-temperature applications.
Application
Klübertemp GR AR 555 is used in numerous sectors of industry and a wide variety of components operating at high temperatures.
Application examples:
- Corrugated roll bearings in corrugators
- Seals
- Conveyors
- Clean room equipment and semiconductor technology
- Vacuum applications
Behaviour towards elastomers and plastics:
Lubricants based on perfluorinated polyether oils and polytetrafluoroethylene are generally regarded as neutral towards most elastomers and plastics (exception: perfluorinated rubber).
Nevertheless we recommend testing compatibility with the material to be used, especially prior to series application.
Application Notes
For optimum lubrication results, we recommend cleaning the friction points with white spirit 180/210 followed by Klüberalfa XZ 3-1. Then blow the surfaces with clean, dry compressed air or hot air to remove solvent residues. For initial lubrication, the friction points must be clean and bright, i.e. free from oil, grease, perspiration and contamination. Klübertemp GR AR 555 is applied directly or by means of brush, spatula or lubricant dispenser. The technical sales departments at Klüber Lubrication may be contacted at any time for advice to ensure optimum service life results.

It is strongly recommend using all fluids and greases at the time of receipt, however when storage is necessary, rotate older stock into use first and observe the recommended parameters listed below.
Klüber Grease
Shelf Life of Klüber Grease is a minimum of 5 years; in this case although there won't be problems in terms of chemical stability there can be oil separation over time, which is normal.
