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 can and drum can be used dry or mixed with oil and grease to increase their load-carrying capacity or improve their ability to conduct heat and electricity. Lubricant in a tube can be used dry. It has a precision-tip applicator.
Flake lubricants conduct heat and electricity better than powder. Use them dry or mix with oil and grease to increase their load-carrying capacity or improve their ability to conduct heat and electricity.
