Throughout the development, production, and maintenance of medical devices, issues such as friction and wear, operating noise, seal failure, and contact oxidation not only shorten equipment service life, but also interfere with the precision and safety of core functions such as diagnosis, drug delivery, and surgery. In addition, because device components directly or indirectly contact the human body, lubricants must meet stringent biocompatibility requirements and withstand repeated sterilization by ethylene oxide, gamma radiation, high-pressure steam, and other methods without performance degradation.

FUCHS’ NYEMED® series is manufactured in strict accordance with the ISO 13485 medical device quality management system. All products have passed the core ISO 10993 biocompatibility tests, with no cytotoxicity and extremely low skin irritation, while also withstanding mainstream sterilization methods. The portfolio covers all application scenarios, including damping control, bearing drive systems, electrical contact protection, and seal lubrication, combining safety, performance, and durability to help medical equipment operate stably and compliantly throughout its full lifecycle.
