Molykote 44M is a silicone-based grease with lithium thickener and solid lubricants, offering reliable performance from -40 °C to +204 °C. It delivers a smooth user experience by ensuring consistent friction behavior, predictable torque, and stable movement even during long duty cycles. It resists oxidation, water, and evaporation, making it ideal for high-temperature metal and plastic components in several industry.

• Wide Temperature Range - Molykote 44M operates reliably from minus 40 degrees to 204 degrees Celsius, confirmed through temperature-cycling tests that show stable consistency and lubricity across this full span. This broad thermal capability ensures dependable friction behavior during cold starts, elevated heat conditions and continuous temperature variations. 

  
  

• Oxidation Resistance - The grease demonstrates strong resistance to oxidation, supported by warm-air exposure testing indicating minimal viscosity change compared with mineral-based greases. This helps limit the formation of oxidative deposits. As a result, systems operating under elevated temperatures or extended exposure to airflow maintain cleaner surfaces, improved lubrication stability and longer maintenance intervals, contributing to reliable performance in continuous-duty applications.

  
  

• Water Resistance - Molykote 44M maintains its lubricating film in humid, wet or splash-prone environments due to its silicone chemistry, which yields low washout values during water-spray and moisture-exposure evaluations.The grease helps reduce corrosion, friction spikes and premature wear in systems subjected to environmental moisture, ensuring predictable motion during long-duty cycles.

  
  

• Plastic Compatibility - The formulation exhibits excellent compatibility with a wide range of plastics and elastomers, as verified through material interaction testing showing no swelling, embrittlement or surface degradation. This makes the grease suitable for assemblies containing rubber seals, plastic gears and synthetic components, where chemical incompatibility could otherwise cause deformation or reduced service life.

  
  

• Low Volatility - Molykote 44M shows very low evaporation rates in high-temperature stability testing, which limits lubricant loss and reduces the risk of residue formation. Maintaining consistent volume helps ensure reliable lubrication in sealed or open systems exposed to heat or airflow.

• Automotive Systems - Molykote 44M is suitable for high-temperature metal and plastic components in automotive systems, such as actuators, cable mechanisms and under-hood assemblies. These parts are exposed to heat cycling, humidity and continuous vibration, making stable lubrication critical for preventing friction rise, noise generation and premature component wear. The grease’s thermal tolerance and material compatibility ensure reliable performance across varied driving and environmental conditions.

  
  

• Aerospace Equipment - The Molykote 44M grease is used in aerospace components requiring stable function under extreme temperatures and fluctuating atmospheric conditions. Its ability to maintain consistent viscosity and lubrication from subzero starts to high-operating heat makes it suitable for control mechanisms, cabin systems and high-altitude equipment. The grease supports dependable motion, reduced wear and long-term operational reliability in demanding aerospace environments.

  
  

• Industrial Machinery - Molykote 44M is applied in industrial equipment exposed to heat, moisture, or continuous-duty cycles, such as conveyors, pumps and automated systems. Its resistance to oxidation, water and thermal stress supports consistent lubrication during extended operation, reducing downtime and improving mechanical longevity. The grease ensures stable torque, low friction and reliable performance in both metal-to-metal and metal-to-plastic interfaces found in industrial applications.
