Product Description
SILISIL Silicone Oil 12500 cSt is a special viscosity for defined premium damping and lubrication applications.
SILISIL Silicone Oils are high-purity linear polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) liquids with a purity of 100%. Their viscosity of 12,500 cSt defines their range of applications — from lubrication and release agents to hydraulic functions and specialized care and industrial applications.
12,500 cSt is the intermediate viscosity for applications ranging between 10,000 and 60,000 cSt — defined premium profiles in automotive and industrial damping.

Frequently asked questions about SILISIL Silicone Oil 12500 cSt
Practical application and design questions — answered by SILITECH.
SILISIL Silicone Oil 12500 cSt: Special viscosity for defined premium damping and lubrication applications. Main applications include specialized premium dampers, premium injection molding release agents, and special lubrication applications.
PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) is a linear silicone fluid that combines high thermal stability, low surface tension, very good dielectric properties, and broad temperature resistance. The viscosity (measured in centistokes, cSt) determines the field of application — low viscosities are suitable for volatile applications and lubrication, high viscosities for damping and conditioners.
SILISIL Silicone Oils are soluble in aromatic, aliphatic, and chlorinated solvents (e.g., toluene, xylene, hexane, diesel). They are not miscible with water and alcohols. For anti-foam applications, high-viscosity PDMS is diluted in hydrocarbon solvents and introduced using a dosing pump.
Store in the unopened original container at room temperature (ideally below 60 °C). Avoid eye contact. SILISIL Silicone Oils are generally non-toxic, odorless, and tasteless — nevertheless, consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS), which is available in the "Documents" tab.
The viscosity determines the application. 12,500 cSt is optimal for: Specialized premium dampers and similar application profiles.
