High vacuum silicone grease Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-MH-12745
The High Vacuum Silicone Grease by Educational Instrument India is a laboratory-grade sealing and lubricating grease designed for use in vacuum systems, glass joints, stopcocks, desiccators, laboratory valves, and vacuum apparatus. It helps create an airtight seal between glass, rubber, and metal surfaces, reducing air leakage and improving vacuum performance.
This grease is suitable for physics laboratories, chemistry labs, research centers, educational institutions, and industrial training laboratories. It is commonly used with vacuum pumps, vacuum chambers, desiccators, glassware joints, and laboratory equipment where smooth movement and effective sealing are required.
High Vacuum Silicone Grease provides excellent resistance to moisture, oxidation, and temperature variation. Its smooth consistency makes it easy to apply in a thin layer, ensuring reliable sealing without excessive contamination. It is a useful laboratory consumable for maintaining vacuum apparatus and improving the efficiency of experiments involving low-pressure conditions.

How to Use
Clean the glass joint, valve, gasket, or sealing surface before applying the grease.
Make sure the surface is dry and free from dust, oil, or chemical residue.
Take a small amount of High Vacuum Silicone Grease using a clean spatula or applicator.
Apply a very thin and even layer on the sealing surface.
Join the glass parts, stopcock, or fitting gently and rotate slightly for uniform spreading.
Connect the apparatus to the vacuum system and check for proper sealing.
Avoid applying excess grease, as it may contaminate samples or enter the apparatus.
After the experiment, remove excess grease with suitable cleaning material as per laboratory practice.
Close the grease container properly after use.
Store the product safely in a clean and dry place.
