What is Dry Film Lubricant?
The dry film lubricant is a paint-like coating process which provides a permanent lubrication and protection from corrosion to surfaces of a part with .003-.005″ coating of fine molybdenum disulfide particles. After the dry fill lubricant application and curing, the lubricants bond to the surface and form a solid film. By coating the surface of a sliding or moving part, the dry fill lubricant processes will ensure that lubrication is retained and reduce friction and result in less wear for the part or mechanism. There are dry film lubricants that contain special rust inhibitors that protect the part from corrosion in harsh environments.
