MP-50 28023 Low-Friction Moly Paste 12 Lb. 1 Gal. Pail

MP-50 Moly Paste is a nonmelting, lubricating compound containing a high percentage of low-friction molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). Being a thick paste, it can be applied by brush or spatula. When employed in mechanical components not exposed to air, good lubrication results can be anticipated up to 2000Deg F (1090Deg C). Molybdenum Disulfide is nearly inert in operating conditions up to 600Deg F (315Deg C). If the grease vehicle should be squeezed out, disrupting normal lubrication, the moly disulfide remains to protect working surfaces. It assists in boundary lubrication by filling microscopic voids. MP-50 "plates" metal surfaces, reducing high points and increasing the load carrying area. It provides a low-friction shield to reduce bearing temperatures, protect working parts, prevent galling, seizure, stick-slip and heat-freeze. MP-50 has a film strength of 300,000 psi and adheres tenaciously to metal surfaces. MP-50 may be applied directly to hot surfaces without running off or dripping. Conversely, it may be applied at temperatures as low as 0Deg F (-18Deg C) where many lubricants solidify. MP-50 is water resistant, withstands extreme weather elements, and helps prevent corrosion on parts exposed to water, steam, most acids and alkalis. NLGI Grade 3-1/2. Sizes: 1 lb, 2 lb, 12 lb, 30 lb, 60 lb, 180 lb, 600 lb
