What is the microgel thickener?
Most of the AeroShell range of greases therefore use a patented thickener known as Microgel. This is a specially treated clay based thickener which has: No upper temperature limit (the upper temperature is limited by the base oil) Very little change in consistency with variation in temperature.
What is lithium thickener?
Lithium 12-hydroxy stearate greases are the most widely used soap greases. Lithium soaps are very efficient thickeners. Lithium greases prepared from them have good lubricity, shear stability, thermal resistance (as measured by the “dropping point”, typically between 190-220°C), and relatively low oil separation.
What is inorganic thickener?
Inorganic thickeners provide a grease through a fairly simple manufacturing process. Silica gel and bentonite or modified clay are solutions that are limited in its resistance to high loads.
What is AeroShell 33ms for?
AeroShell 33MS aerospace grease that meets mil-spec MIL-G-21164D for barrel nut assembly on AR platform upper receiver threads. As used on ADM Rifle builds, offered here in a 1/4oz jar for your own AR-15 projects. Unless you run your own shop, this small jar will likely last you through several builds.
Which grease can be used in aircraft?
Ball bearing greases A synthetic inorganic gel grease, used in low or high temperature applications. Wide temperature performance makes it a preferred grease in jet aircraft. A mineral oil-based, inorganic gel grease, the most common wheel bearing grease used.
What is aircraft grease made of?
