<strong>Silicone</strong> Fluid Selection Guide<br />
Selecting a silicone fluid<br />
There are two approaches to selecting the proper silicone<br />
fluid for an application. The fluid class can be chosen by<br />
comparing specific physical property requirements in the<br />
property profile by class chart located inside the front cover<br />
or by comparing function and application requirements in the<br />
following table. Once the fluid class is selected, a specific<br />
grade can be determined on the next few pages by following<br />
the color key.<br />
