VITROLUBE NPI-16
NPI-16
This lubricant is essentially identical to the NPI-14 lubricant except the graphite has been replaced with other non-corrosion pigments. The nominal thickness and cure temperature are identical to NPI-14. It is intended for applications to surfaces that will be subjected to mechanical wear. The purpose of this product in it’s finished form is to reduce friction or prevent galling and seizure and to remain stable over it’s designed temperature range of -65°F to +300°F. Because it contains no graphite or powered metals it will not promote corrosion or have a deleterious effect on adjacent structures. NPI-16 is intended to meet the requirements of MIL-L-46010 Type I.
Wear Life Testing is routinely conducted using the Falex Pin and V-Block tester per ASTM D2625-69 Procedure A., material being used as noted:
Pins SAE 3135 Steel, V-Blocks AISIC 1137 Steel, Average wear life is 5.5 hours.st bonded lubricants to be used, it is still the type approved by a number of companies for many applications which is the reason that NPI continues to offer NPI-14 to our customers.
