Specially designed NLGI consistency for an improved autoclave sealing. Exceptional mechanical stability on the moving parts for a perfect sealing effect for an increased time. Good adhesivness on a large variety of fittings covered or not by graphite or Teflon. Oustanding resistance to water wash-out or to steam. Regreasing is not necessary at each autoclave opening. AXA GA3 assures long machine life while reducing contamination problems as required by the HACCP system (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point System).
