Does anyone know where I can get my hands on an SDS sheet for GE 21425002000 Red switchgear grease? A URL link would be greatly appreciated!

It is basically just ketchup. Try some on your hot dog at lunch with a little relish.


:)

Seriously, the best place to ask is the place you bought it from.

Many google results show that grease being mobiltemp SHC-32. Here's mobil's product page with link to SDS

It appears to be MOBILTEMP SHC32. The landing page is below. I couldn't link directly to to the SDS. GE's site was remarkably unhelpful.


Edit: I see Todd0x1 beat me to it. (y)

Yeah and I love how mobiltemp shc-32 is $100 a gallon and GE's p/n is $40 for a 4oz tube. A grease gun cartridge of the stuff is around $9

The magic of re-branding. Or repackaging. Looking around on the web, you can get wire nuts for about $20 per thousand, or the same price for 100 at Home Depot.

BTW this grease is a godsend. We use it exclusively on all energized and non-energized parts. It usually comes in switchgear that GE ships
and used on all their breaker fingers and bus stabs. It is not petroleum based so it does not seem to dry out over time which is the cause of many
issues and failures with ATS operation.

The only items listed in the SDS are those that are potentially hazardous, and they top out at a combined maximum of 8.25% by weight. The rest is considered a trade secret, so I have no idea what the carrier is.
