The Heliox Line

The same chemistry trusted in jet engine bearings, satellite mechanisms, and high-vacuum aerospace applications — engineered for the most demanding RC racing applications. PFPE is unlike any other lubricant chemistry. Once you understand why, you'll never go back.

What Is PFPE?

Aerospace Chemistry, RC-Tuned

PFPE — perfluoropolyether — is a class of synthetic lubricants developed for applications where conventional oils and greases fail. We're talking jet engine bearings spinning at 30,000+ RPM, satellite mechanisms exposed to vacuum and radiation, semiconductor manufacturing, and chemical processing where reactivity is unacceptable.

Why? Because PFPE doesn't oxidize, doesn't break down under extreme heat, doesn't react chemically with anything, and maintains its viscosity across enormous temperature ranges. Where mineral oils smoke and synthetic greases gum up, PFPE keeps working.

The Heliox line brings this aerospace-grade chemistry to RC racing. Specifically formulated for the most demanding applications — high-RPM ceramic bearings, high-load drivetrain components, and severe-duty conditions where conventional lubricants compromise.

Why PFPE Matters

The Aerospace Advantage

Five reasons PFPE outperforms conventional lubricants in extreme racing conditions.

Chemical Inertness

PFPE doesn't react with metals, plastics, oxygen, or fuels. It stays exactly what it was when you applied it — for the entire life of the lubricant.

Extreme Temperature Range

Functional from -70°C to +250°C without viscosity collapse. RC racing heat — even ceramic bearing temps — is well within PFPE's comfort zone.

No Oxidation

Conventional oils oxidize, thicken, and form deposits over time. PFPE doesn't oxidize at all. The viscosity you applied is the viscosity you keep.

Extreme Pressure Capability

PFPE bonds to metal surfaces at the molecular level, providing protection under extreme pressure that conventional EP additives cannot match.

Non-Flammable

Unlike hydrocarbon lubricants, PFPE is non-flammable. Critical for high-RPM applications where lubricant atomization could otherwise be a fire risk.

Long Service Life

PFPE doesn't break down, oxidize, or wash out. Apply once, perform consistently. Real-world service life can be 10x conventional lubricants.

When to Use Heliox

Engineered for Severe Duty

Heliox isn't a daily-driver lubricant — it's the specialist solution for applications where standard greases and oils compromise performance.

Application	Recommended Heliox	Why PFPE
High-RPM Ceramic Bearings	Heliox L15	Chemical inertness with ceramic, no oxidation at sustained heat
Severe-Load Drivetrain	Heliox 25	Molecular metal bonding under extreme pressure
Sliding Gear Contacts	Heliox L12	Dry film won't attract dust or debris
High-Speed Steel Bearings	Heliox L15	Doesn't break down at sustained high temps
Long-Service Components	Heliox 25	Won't oxidize, doesn't need frequent reapplication
Complete Race Setup	Heliox Master Kit	All three formulations covering every application

A Note on Pricing

PFPE base stocks are significantly more expensive than conventional lubricant chemistry — that's why aerospace specifies them only where their performance justifies the cost. The Heliox line is premium-priced because aerospace-grade chemistry is premium-cost. For your most demanding components, it's the right investment.
