Castrol Braycote™ 236 is a soft, reddish-brown, grease-like technical grade petrolatum. It forms a soft, translucent, flexible coating on parts to which it is applied and is readily removed with solvent or by steam cleaning. It is intended for use as a light grade of lubricating grease, but is not recommended for heavily loaded or hot-running bearings. It may also be used as a constituent in petrolatum-based rust preventive compounds.
