Pipette Grease Silicone, Pivot, Piston

pipette grease

Many everyday tools such as bicycle chains and hinges need lubrication and grease from time to time to continue to work properly and smoothly. Lab supplies such as pipettes need the same kind of treatment of grease. In centrifuges, lubricant leads to noise reduction, avoidance of imbalance or leaks, and smooth operation. In a pipette, lubricating pivots and pistons with silicone grease is important for longevity, precision, and smooth operation.

20 ml eppendorf pipette grease

Eppendorf Pipette Pivot Grease Tube, 20mL

Eppendorf pipette pivot grease (also called Peg Fat) for rotor to lubricate the pivot joints on swing-bucket rotors. It is suggested that after cleaning or decontaminating a pipette that you lubricate the the piston or the cylinder in the lower part. Unfortunately it is not obvious when your pipette needs more lubrication. This is because the lubricant is inside and your pipette won’t start squeaking when it’s running low. So, unless you disassemble your pipette to see the inside the only noticeable way of determining if it needs more pivot grease would be an abrasive feeling or jerking when pushing the operation button.
