Chemical-Resistant Ultra-Low-Friction PTFE Powder

Often used in assemblies that rub against each other, this powder blends into plastic, rubber, composites, and lubricants to keep them from sticking. Because it is slippery, it decreases wear and dissipates heat caused by friction—it will not break down in extreme temperatures. It repels water, which keeps rust, dust, and debris from building up and causing abrasion between moving parts. This powder won’t react to most corrosive chemicals, but it will break down when exposed to alkali metal.

Dry-Film Antiseize Lubricants with Material Certificate

These lubricants dry to form a thin, solvent-resistant film that won't squeeze out or attract dirt. They're made with moly to withstand heavy loads and pressure. They can handle low-speed loads at temperatures up to 745° F and static loads up to 2400° F. Also known as thread lubricants, antiseize lubricants prevent threaded fasteners and close-fitting parts from locking together due to corrosion, contamination, or heat.

Loctite® LB 8017 Moly Dry Film—Loctite® LB 8017 Moly Dry Film can also be used with chain and other moving metal parts.

Certificates with a traceable lot number and product shelf life are available for these products. Download certificates from ORDER HISTORY after your order ships.

An alternative to nearly dry machining, apply these coolants to tools before milling and machining to reduce heat with minimal cleanup. They’re often used with shallow drilling, reaming, and tapping, as well as on saw blades. Remove from tools and work surfaces with alcohol, methyl ethyl ketone, or a parts washer. They are chlorine free, for use where chlorine waste disposal is a concern, and sulfur free. Use at full strength.

Stick—Coolant in a stick is solid. Touch it to cutting tools or work surfaces.

Jar—Coolant in a jar is a paste. It can also be used as a bending and forming paste.
