8463 Technical Data Sheet Silver Conductive Grease Description 8463 is a silver-lfi led electrically conductive grease. It greatly improves electrical and thermal connections under screw-type pressure. It lubricates, reduces contact resistance, repels moisture, inhibits corrosion, and prevents static buildup. Use 8463 when you want a lubricating grease that provides superior electrical contact and environmental protection. It is excellent for ground connections, rotating connections, rotary switches, variable capacitors, roller inductors, roller bearings, slip rings, slide connectors and potentiometers. Features and Benefits Silver-lfi ledgreatly reduces electrical and thermal resistance Improves electrical connections between irregular and pitted surfaces Prevents arching, pitting, hotspots and welds Inhibits corrosion Reduces mechanical wear Broad service temperature of -50 to 200 C (-58 to 392 F) Usage Parameters Properties Value Shelf life 5 y Temperature Ranges Properties Value Constant service temperature -50 to 200 C -58 to 392 F Storage temperature limits -10 to 40 C 14 to 104 F IS0 9001:2015 Quality Management System.
