    for use in corrosion-inducing atmospheres
  • High-temperature version V/HT
    for use in hot environments
  • Power booster version KVZ
    if higher gripping forces are required
  • Dustproof version SD
    absolutely dustproof, increased degree of protection against ingress of materials.
  • Precision version P
    for the highest accuracy
  • ATEX version EX
    for explosive environments
  • H1G compliant grease
    for use in the food and pharmaceutical industries
  • Food-grade lubrication
    The product contains food-compliant lubricants as standard. The requirements of EN 1672-2:2020 are not fully met. The relevant NSF certificates are available at https://info.nsf.org/USDA/Listings.asp using the lubricant information in the operating manual.
