Food Industry Mold-Release Lubricants
Use these lubricants for molding and casting parts that don't need to be painted in food-processing and preparation areas, or when molding parts that will be used around food. Apply them to molds before casting so you can easily remove cast parts and prevent sticking, stretching, and tearing.
All DuPont Molykote lubricants can also be used as a multipurpose lubricant to keep food-processing equipment from sticking. Use Molykote 316 Silicone Release Spray with metal. Use Molykote 7 Release Compound with plastic and rubber. It resists drying and oxidation.
Lubricants that are FDA 21 Compliant CFR 175.300 and/or meet NSF ANSI 51 can have direct contact with food. Lubricants that meet NSF/ANSI 61 are certified for use with components that come into contact with drinking water.

Food Industry No-Residue Mold-Release Lubricants
Also known as paintable mold-release lubricants, these lubricants don’t leave a residue, so you can paint or finish the molded part without the need to clean it. Use them for molding and casting parts in food-processing and preparation areas, or when molding parts that will be used around food. Apply them to molds before casting so you can easily remove cast parts and prevent sticking, stretching, and tearing.
Lubricants that are FDA Compliant 21 CFR 178.3570 are rated for incidental food contact.
