Krytox GPL 201潤滑脂在40°C時的油粘度為7.8 cSt，估計可用溫度范圍為-70°C至104°C。
Krytox GPL 201潤滑脂是極端溫度條件下的首選產品。大多數石油產品在高于99°C（210°F）時開始降解，在略低于-18°C（0°F）的溫度下粘度太大。在177°C（350°F）和10000 rpm的D-3336測試條件下，大多數競爭的碳氫化合物潤滑劑在不到1000小時內失效。但是，Krytox通用潤滑油系列已被證明能夠持續5000小時以上而不失效，即使在200°C（392°F）的升高溫度下也是如此。這種極端條件下的性能是Krytox高性能潤滑油與其他競爭產品的區別。
由于Krytox GPL 201潤滑脂的惰性，與典型的碳氫油和潤滑脂相比，其使用壽命更長；并且更長的使用壽命允許它們在需要更換之前保持相當長的時間段（如果它們被完全更換的話）。這意味著隨著時間的推移，通過減少潤滑油的購買量和重新潤滑期間發生的停機時間，可以節省成本。對于需要GPL 201和極壓添加劑的應用，我們建議使用Krytox GPL 211，或者如果需要強力防腐，則使用Kryto GPL 221
Krytox GPL 201 grease has an Oil Viscosity of 7.8 cSt at 40°C and the estimated useful temperature range is -70°C to 104°C.
Krytox GPL 201 grease is the product of choice in extreme temperature conditions. Most petroleum products begin to degrade above 99 °C (210 °F) and are too viscous at temperatures just below –18 °C (0 °F). Under the D-3336 test conditions of 177 °C (350 °F) and 10,000 rpm, the majority of competing hydrocarbon lubricants fail in less than 1,000 hr. But, the general-purpose line of Krytox lubricants has been shown to last over 5,000 hr without failure, even at an increased temperature of 200 °C (392 °F). This extreme condition performance is what distinguishes Krytox performance lubricants from other competing products.
Due to the inert nature of Krytox GPL 201 grease, it provides a much longer usable life as compared to typical hydrocarbon oils and greases; and the longer usable life allows them to remain for considerable periods of time before needing to be replaced if they are replaced at all. That translates to savings over time, both by lowering the amount of lubricant purchased and any downtime incurred during re-lubrication. For applications that require GPL 201 and an extreme pressure additive, we recommend Krytox GPL 211, or if potent anti-corrosion is required Krytox GPL 221
