Description
About Shin-Etsu G-776 Silicone Grease
OVERVIEW:
Shin-Etsu G-776 is a high-performance, silicone-based grease formulated to provide lubrication, sealing, and protection in a wide range of electrical, electronic, and mechanical applications. It combines a high-purity silicone fluid with a specially selected thickener and solid lubricants, enabling excellent wear resistance and stable performance under heavy loads and varying environmental conditions. G-776 is particularly well-suited for applications requiring enhanced mechanical lubrication along with dielectric and moisture-resistant properties.
KEY FEATURES:
Wide Operating Temperature Range
Performs effectively across a typical service temperature range of -50°C to +200°C, maintaining lubrication and sealing properties in both low- and high-temperature environments.
Electrical Insulation Properties
Offers stable dielectric performance, supporting use in insulating and protecting electrical connectors, switches, and components.
Enhanced Wear Resistance
Reinforced with solid lubricants to reduce friction and wear under high-load or sliding contact conditions.
Water and Moisture Resistance
Provides excellent resistance to water washout and moisture ingress, helping to protect components in wet or humid environments.
Compatibility with Materials
Compatible with a wide variety of metals, plastics, and elastomers, minimizing risk of material degradation.
APPLICATIONS:
-
Electrical Connectors and Terminals – Used to lubricate and protect electrical connectors, enhancing contact reliability and corrosion resistance.
-
Automotive Components – Suitable for switches, O-rings, seals, and connectors exposed to mechanical stress and environmental factors.
-
Precision Instruments – Applied to gears, cams, and sliding components in optical or measuring equipment requiring smooth, consistent movement.
-
Industrial Machinery – Provides long-lasting lubrication and wear protection in heavily loaded bearings, joints, and sliding parts.
-
Consumer Electronics – Used in devices requiring quiet operation and long-term lubrication of plastic and metal parts.
PACKAGING:
Shin-Etsu G-776 is typically supplied in small tubes (e.g., 100g) and larger containers such as 1kg jars or pails, depending on regional availability and application requirements.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
