Key Properties
Dispersion of molybdenum disulfide in mineral oil used in extreme pressure applications.
-
Applications
Typical applications include:
- Gears – Gears at slow speeds and extreme pressures.
- Bearings – Oil-lubricated plane bearings.
- Machine tools – Added to oil reservoir for machine ways, slides, screws, servo mechanisms, transmissions and power-feed systems. (For non-oil-lubricated components, use MOLYKOTE® G-n Metal Assembly Paste or Spray.)
- Metalworking – Useful in such operations as broaching, gear hobbing, drilling, tapping, cutting, stamping, punching, drawing, thread rolling and cold heading.
-
Performance Benefits
- High load-carrying capacity at slow speeds
- Compatible with mineral oil gear oils
- Gears – Addition to oil-lubricated gears may provide:
- Smoother surface finish of new or reworked gear sets following critical run-in
- Healing of tooth surface damage with resultant reduction of pitting and wear debris (Figures 1 and 2)
- Lower operating temperature, noise level and power usage due to reduction of friction
- Longer service life of gear sets
- Bearings – Addition to oil-lubricated plain bearings may help:
- Minimize wear at slow speeds and extreme pressures, especially during startups and under shock loading and vibration
- Machine tools – Addition to the oil reservoir may:
- Minimize stick-slip
- Promote smooth action
- Metalworking – Addition to metalworking fluids and cutting oils may:
- Increase tool life by lowering friction and heat and metal pickup on work-contact areas
- Reduce force required and improve the cutting action
- Produce better surface finish
No intentional polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)
