For electrical components in the automotive, industrial
engineering and installations sector. Due to its specific base oil
viscosity, Klüberlectric KR 44-402 works particularly well under
medium to high contact forces and at low temperatures. It is
compatible with most plastic materials and hence can be used
for the lubrication of plastic/plastic material combinations.
Klüberlectric KR 44-402 minimises contact resistance values
under lifetime operating requirements subject to varying
electrical and mechanical loads.
