Aerospace Lubricants Tribolube 64RPA primary characteristic is that it has extremely low start run torques at -100°F, yet will operate at temperatures of 400°F for long periods of time. Tribolube-64 is nonreactive with strong acids, oxygen. fuels, and solvents. It is an excellent anti-wear, extreme pressure lubricant with long life. Although this lubricant is very inert, newly exposed rubbing surfaces of aluminum and magnesium may react with the greases under certain conditions.
Tribolube 64RPA is intended for use in small and large diameter ball, roller, needle, and plain bearings, threads, valves, gears, and screw actuators. It is compatible with most elastomers and plastic seals, gaskets and O-rings
