    For use in food-processing and preparation areas, these lubricants are rated for incidental food contact. Coat tight-fitting parts with them before sliding together to make assembly easier.
    Mineral Oil Base—Mineral-oil-based lubricants have a high load-carrying capacity and can lubricate sliding loads at low-to-medium speeds.

    Coat tight-fitting metal parts, such as gears, clutches, and press-fit assemblies, with these lubricants before sliding them together to make assembly easier. Once assembled, they provide initial lubrication in equipment before oil has a chance to flow.
    For hoses and other tight-fitting parts, apply these lubricants to rubber or plastic before assembling and disassembling. After drying, they lose their lubricity, so parts stay together. They leave no residue on assembled parts.
    Mineral Oil Base—Mineral-oil-based lubricants, derived from petroleum, are more economical than synthetic-oil-based lubricants.
    Synthetic Oil Base—Synthetic-oil-based lubricants last longer than mineral-oil-based lubricants.
    DuPont Molykote G-Rapid Plus Paste—Molykote G-Rapid Plus Paste is often used to assemble threaded spindles, gears, screws, and pumps. It can be used as an initial lubricant and has a high load-carrying capacity.
    DuPont Molykote G-Rapid Plus Spray—Molykote G-Rapid Plus Spray has a high load-carrying capacity.
    DuPont Molykote M-77 Paste—Molykote M-77 Paste is commonly used on brakes and clutches; it is compatible with material that is damaged by mineral oil, such as natural rubber, SBR, and EPDM. As a paste it lubricates to 445° F; after drying, it continues to lubricate at temperatures up to 660° F. It has a high load-carrying capacity.
    Graphite Additive—Lubricants with graphite have additional pressure resistance and excellent temperature resistance.
    Molybdenum Disulfide Additive—Lubricants with moly (molybdenum disulfide) withstand high-pressure applications and have excellent wear resistance.

    Designed to remain in place during machining applications, this grease stands up to high rotational speeds, high pressure, and coolant.
    Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range.
    Barium Thickener—Grease with barium thickener has good heat resistance and excellent moisture resistance.
    Clay Thickener—Grease with clay thickener has excellent heat resistance and good oxidation resistance.
    2 NLGI Grade—NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter.
    2.5 NLGI Grade—NLGI 2.5 is between the consistencies of peanut butter and vegetable shortening.
    Sulfur Additive—Grease with sulfur has excellent resistance to wear and can withstand high-load and high-pressure applications.
    Zinc Alloy Additive—Grease with zinc alloy neutralizes acid and is a good replacement for leaded grease.
    Melting Temperature—Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry.
