Kreatos ICHOREX Oil

The clean, precise half of the ICHOREX pair. A fully synthetic oil carrying a fine PTFE dispersion, built for the sliding and lightly loaded parts where a clean oil beats a grease. Comes in a precision bottle with needle and brush tips so you place it exactly where it needs to go.

What it is

A synthetic base carrying PTFE micro-particles that bond to the surface, cut friction, quiet the motion and reduce stick-slip. This is the one you reach for on parts you top up often and want to reach precisely. The synthetic hydrocarbon base gives it a fuller, more reliable film than light precision oils, so it stays on sliding contacts instead of thinning out and migrating away. Near-white and non-staining, it suits visible mechanisms where you do not want a dark oil mark.

Two tips, one bottle

The bottle ships with a fine needle tip for placing a single drop exactly where it is needed, and a brush tip for coating threads and faces evenly. A stainless mixing ball inside keeps the PTFE evenly dispersed; a quick shake before use is all it needs (it is a very stable mix). Drop it precisely, or spread it smoothly.

Best for

• 3D printer rods and light linear rails
• Lead screws where oil lubrication is specified
• Small robot joints and sliding mechanisms
• Light gears and shafts
• Hobby assemblies and precision lubrication points
• Any contact you top up often and want to reach exactly

What it does well

• Fully synthetic base for a stronger film than lighter oils
• PTFE-fortified for reduced friction and smoother movement
• Clean, near-white, non-staining appearance
• Good load-carrying and anti-wear behaviour for small motion systems
• Low odour for workshop and hobby use
• Needle and brush tips for controlled, exact application
