Reliable tribological solutions for manufacturers of electronic components
Lubricants for the electrical industry
Safety and protective properties are particularly important in the electrical industry. The tribological challenges are often very specific due to the different areas of application. Only when all the details of the application have been taken into account is it possible to select or develop a lubricant that is tailored to it.
Many switches and plug connections would fail after only a short time without appropriate lubrication and protection against external influences.
Lubrication of electrical contacts
Electrical connectors and switches can be found in a variety of applications, whether in cars, trucks, household appliances, industrial machinery or infrastructure. The lubrication of these electrical contacts plays a crucial role in ensuring that they function properly over their intended lifetime. The lubricant fulfills several important tasks:
It reduces friction, which helps to minimize mating forces. It also protects the contact surfaces from undesirable effects such as arcing, oxidation, wear and corrosion. Lubrication helps to prevent fretting corrosion, particularly in the case of vibrations. The lubricant also meets other requirements, for example by helping to dampen haptics or noise.
Lubricants for manufacturers of electronic components
When lubricating electrical contacts, a basic distinction is made between the lubrication of the contact itself and that of the mechanics.
The TUNGREASE LP series
is used in various areas:
It is suitable for the lubrication of metal and plastic drive mechanisms as well as for the lubrication of plug contacts and low-voltage switches.
The TUNGREASE LP range is characterized by its dynamic lightness and shows particularly good properties at low temperatures
The TUNGREASE 300 series
is used especially in the following areas of application:
It is used for the contact lubrication of medium and high voltage switches. It is a chemically inert, vacuum-resistant high-temperature grease.
The TUNGREASE CP series
on the other hand, is used for mechanical drive components. This is a fully synthetic high-performance lubricating grease that is resistant to various media.
The TUNCUT series
is used especially for forming and punching metal parts.
These are forming and punching oils that offer a high level of wear protection and leave minimal residue.
TUNGREASE SG: Product highlight for the electrical industry
TUNGREASE SG is the classic in our portfolio for manufacturers. The ingredients are of extremely high quality and it is highly pure. A small amount of TUNGREASE SG is sufficient to reliably lubricate the precise tolerance of ejector pins and sliders without being rubbed off.
Injection molded parts are not soiled or contaminated. It is also extremely temperature and evaporation stable, compatible with all plastics and has a very outstanding long-term lubricating effect.
