Form

This specification covers a coating consisting of finely-powdered molybdenum disulfide in a heat-resistant inorganic binder applied to parts.

Application

This product has been used typically on metal parts and selected nonmetallic materials requiring a coating under 0.0002 inch (5 µm) thick for reducing wear or minimizing galling, but usage is not limited to such applications.

This lubricating film may be applied to surfaces of ferrous and nonferrous metals and alloys, thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers, and rubber (O-rings, seals, etc). Aluminum, magnesium, and ferrous alloys, other than corrosionresistant types, either coated or in contact with other parts having this coating, may be susceptible to corrosion.

This lubricating film has been shown to be compatible with such fluids as distilled water, petroleum-based hydraulic fluid, SAE phosphate ester test fluid #1, silicone fluid, UDMG-compatible grease, IFRNA-compatible grease, solid rocket propellants, nitrogen tetroxide, and liquid oxygen.

Safety - Hazardous Materials

While the materials, methods, applications, and processes described or referenced in this specification may involve the use of hazardous materials, this specification does not address the hazards which may be involved in such use. It is the sole responsibility of the user to ensure familiarity with the safe and proper use of any hazardous materials and to take necessary precautionary measures to ensure the health and safety of all personnel involved.
