Difference Between Dielectric Grease and Silicone Grease

Grease is a thick and oily substance usually used as a lubricant. As a true sample of grease, it must contain either oil and/or other lubricants usually mixed using a thickener, usually a soap so as to form a solid or semisolid substance.
Greases come in different types depending on the manufacturing and preparation processes. The two main ones that most people confuse are the dielectric grease and silicone grease with some interchanging each for the other. In light of this, you can read through and get the notable differences between them.

The one informative difference that I got from this video was that dialectric grease is primarily used for spark plugs, which is what I needed to confirm and that silicone grease is primarily for rubber components, such as lubricants for bolts in calipers when performing a brake job.

I think this is AI generated and just a jumble of stuff found various places. Like a high school kid trying to get enough words in an essay.

Silicone grease is dielectric by it’s very nature.

Very true! The main difference and the truth is: pure "Marketing".

Are they interchangeable?

[@danielthoin]

Is it Krytox 205g0 a dieletric grease or silicon grease?

[@atanki5682]

silicon.

Obvious, that you were not listening, just trying to nitpick. I found it quite informative
