About Lubricants

Dry-Film Lubricants
These lubricants go on wet for easy application. Once dry, they form a nonstick film that won't attract dust. Use them for general purpose lubricating in most applications.
Lubricants with moly (molybdenum disulfide) withstand high loads and have excellent wear resistance. Lubricants with silicone are clear, have excellent water resistance, and can be used on most rubber and plastic. Lubricants with graphite have good heat and wear resistance. Apply lubricant in a can with an HVLP sprayer. Aerosol can with a flip-up straw has a straw that’s attached to the nozzle, so it won’t get lost. Raise it for precision dispensing; lower it for storage or to dispense as a spray. Lubricants with boron nitride resist corrosion from salt water and won’t wash off.
DuPont Molykote 557 Silicone Dry Film is often used on blades to keep them sharp longer.
Dri Slide lubricants have good corrosion resistance. Use Dri Slide EP Liquid Grease for extreme-pressure applications, such as with open gears and dies, wire drawing, and stamping.
Lubricants that cannot be sold outside the United States are restricted by product labeling requirements.

Long-Life Dry-Film Lubricants
Nano-sized additives fill small surface imperfections, reducing wear and heat to extend the life of both the lubricant and equipment. These lubricants dry to form a nonstick film that won’t attract dust. They are often used on hinges, gears, and roller chain.
Lubricants that cannot be sold to the regions listed exceed local regulatory limits on VOC (volatile organic compounds).
Dry-Film Lubricants for Chain
A high load-carrying capacity makes these lubricants good for use on chain and moving metal parts. They dry to form a film that lubricates without attracting dust.
Lubricants with graphite have good heat and excellent wear resistance. Lubricants with PTFE can be used with most plastics and are chemically inert.

Permanent Dry-Film Lubricants
Also known as antifriction coatings, these slippery coatings cure to provide permanent lubrication. They're made with moly (molybdenum disulfide) for high-load applications, such as hinges, gears, and rods. They fill in surface imperfections for a smooth, dry finish that won’t attract dust.
DuPont Molykote 3402-C Anti-Friction cures when exposed to air. It has excellent corrosion resistance. DuPont Molykote 106 Anti-Friction cures when exposed to heat. Use it for your highest-pressure applications, such as pumps, pistons, bearings, and gears.
Overhead Door Dry-Film Lubricants
Spray these wear-resistant lubricants on rollers, hinges, and tracks of overhead doors to reduce friction and noise. These silicone lubricants repel water for use outdoors. Once dry, they form a thin lubricating layer that won’t rub off or attract dust.
Powder and Flake Lubricants
Made of graphite, these powders and flakes lubricate under heavy loads and high temperatures. They resist most chemicals and conduct heat and electricity.
Powder lubricants get into hard-to-reach spots, such as locking mechanisms and fastener threads, better than flakes. Lubricant in a tube can be used dry. It has a precision-tip applicator.
High-Pressure Powder Lubricants
Made of 98% moly, this lubricant withstands pressure up to 500,000 psi and has excellent wear resistance. Apply it to metal surfaces to prevent parts from corroding or sticking.
