Aerospace

 

Nye Lubricants has been designing high-quality, synthetic lubricants for leaders in the aerospace industry for more than 50 years. Our scientists and engineers focus on two challenging categories of aerospace applications: discrete components that are lubricated for life and mechanical or electromechanical devices that must operate for extended periods in severe environments. Nye’s synthetic oils and greases are specified for extreme-temperature jet engine actuators; cargo aircraft landing gear; aircraft controls; precision bearings in navigational instruments and space suits; wide-temperature avionics connectors; linear actuators for satellite antennas; bearings in satellite reaction wheels; and many other critical aerospace components. 

Today, we continue to work with design engineers in the private, government, and military sectors to formulate new synthetic lubricants that will take off with next-generation aircraft and spacecraft.
