Dupont 0132000 Silicone General Purpose Grease 8 Lb Nlgi 2

Product Description

The DUPONT 0132000 is a silicone-based general purpose grease formulated for broad industrial and mechanical service. It comes in an 8-pound can and carries an NLGI Grade 2 consistency, making it suitable for applications that demand a firm, stay-in-place lubricant. The grease operates across a temperature range of -85 degrees F to 347 degrees F, giving it reliable performance in both cold-start and high-heat environments. Its off-white color makes application coverage easy to verify. Licensed trades and maintenance professionals use this grease where silicone chemistry is specified and petroleum-based products are not suitable.

This grease is commonly applied to O-rings, seals, and fittings in HVAC, plumbing, pool, and light industrial systems. Its silicone composition resists breakdown from moisture, ozone, and temperature cycling, which makes it a frequent choice in refrigeration service, valve assembly, and rubber-component lubrication. The 8-pound can format is suited to shop use or fleet-level service operations where a single tube would not be sufficient volume.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed for general purpose O-ring and seal lubrication where a silicone-based NLGI 2 grease is specified. Refer to equipment manufacturer guidelines to confirm silicone grease is compatible with the specific elastomer or substrate before application.

Installation Notes

Apply using a clean applicator to avoid contaminating the grease supply. When lubricating O-rings or valve seats, shut off system pressure and isolate the component before disassembly. Avoid mixing silicone grease with petroleum-based lubricants, as cross-contamination can degrade both products and damage seals. Follow applicable manufacturer service procedures and local code requirements for the system being serviced.
