About MOLYKOTE® 112 High Performance Silicone Compound (150g)
OVERVIEW:
MOLYKOTE® 112 is a high-performance silicone-based compound formulated for lubrication, sealing, and insulating applications in both industrial and electrical systems. It combines a silicone fluid with a reinforcing filler to provide excellent dielectric properties, thermal stability, and water resistance. MOLYKOTE® 112 is suitable for use on metal, rubber, and plastic surfaces, and is commonly applied where long-term protection and compatibility with elastomeric materials are required.
KEY FEATURES:
Wide Temperature Range
Performs effectively across a typical service temperature range of -40°C to +200°C, maintaining sealing and lubricating properties under varying thermal conditions.
Electrical Insulation
Provides stable dielectric properties, supporting use in insulating and protecting electrical components, connectors, and assemblies.
Water Repellency
Offers excellent water resistance, helping to protect components from moisture ingress and corrosion.
Compatibility with Materials
Compatible with many metals, plastics, and elastomers, reducing the risk of material degradation or adverse interactions.
Long-Term Stability
Resists oxidation, thermal degradation, and evaporation, enabling consistent performance over extended service intervals.
APPLICATIONS:
-
Electrical Connectors and Terminals – Used to lubricate and protect connectors, preventing moisture ingress and enhancing contact reliability.
