Product Description
Bluesil Grease 55 NG is a lithium-soap-thickened silicone grease specifically for dynamic lubrication between rubber and metal in pneumatic systems — slight swelling ensures tightness.
Bluesil silicone greases — lithium-soap-thickened silicone oils for lubrication in a wide temperature range (-70 to +200 °C), oxidation-stable, water-repellent. GRS 55 NG is tailored to specific applications — the most important properties and areas of application can be found below.
Bluesil GRS 55 NG is designed for dynamic lubrication between rubber and metal in pneumatic systems — the formulation allows a slight swelling of the rubber component, which ensures a very good seal between rubber and metal.

Frequently asked questions about GRS 55 NG
Practical application and design questions — answered by SILITECH.
Bluesil Grease 55 NG: Lithium-soap-thickened silicone grease specifically for dynamic lubrication between rubber and metal in pneumatic systems — slight swelling ensures a tight seal. Main applications: Pneumatic lubrication, O-rings and toroidal seals, pneumatic actuators.
Prepare the surfaces to be lubricated clean, dry, and degreased. Silicone grease is not compatible with mineral greases — carefully remove any old mineral grease beforehand. Apply with a brush, spatula, or grease gun. Important: Silicone greases must not be used for lubricating oxygen systems (explosion hazard).
Store in the unopened original container in a dry, cool place — typically standard between +5 and +30 °C, exact values see TDS. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. Observe the expiration date on the packaging — Elkem guarantees the sales specifications only up to the stated date.
