Molykote 1000 is a solid, non-stick, lead and nickel free lubricant paste used to reduce wear and optimise friction of threaded fasteners or other metal-to-metal joints, allowing non-destructive disassembly, even after long exposure to high temperatures.
Suitable for bolted joints that are subjected to corrosive effects (offshore applications) and high temperatures up to 650 ° C (1202 ° F) which after assembly and initial operation must be readjusted or disconnected. In order to guarantee constant pre-tensioning forces, uniform and stable friction coefficients of the lubricant are required.
Used successfully for cylinder head bolts, nozzle head bolts of plastic injection molding machines bolted seals in the chemical industry.
