- Good ageing resistance
Storage Conditions
The minimum shelf life is 60 months if the product is properly stored between 0 °C and 40 °C in its unopened original container in a dry place. The indication of a minimum shelf life does not include any guarantee of durability.
Notes
Safety and disposal instructions can be found in the current safety data sheet. GLEITMO 591 is not miscible or compatible with greases based on other base oils and thickeners! Before applying the lubricant, the surfaces must be free of oil and grease. We recommend pretreating the surfaces with METABLANC PFPE as a cleaner. Never expose GLEITMO 591 to temperatures above 280 °C, otherwise harmful vapors will form as a result to thermal decomposition! GLEITMO 591 is not suitable for perfluorinated rubbers!
