MOLYKOTE D-7409 5 kg, heat-curing dry-film lubricant, oil/solvent-resistant, −70–300 °C, 5–20 µm, cure 220 °C
Description
MOLYKOTE D-7409 Anti-Friction Coating 5 kg is a heat-curing dry-film lubricant for metal. It combines excellent lubrication with corrosion protection and high wear resistance, ideal where conventional oils and greases are unsuitable.
Benefits and unique features
- High load-carrying capacity and wear resistance
- Resistance of the cured film to oils, greases and solvents
- Service temperature range −70 to +300 °C
- Reduces fretting and stick-slip
- Permanent lubrication under slow/oscillating motion
Properties and applications
- Typical uses: piston rings and tappets, starter armatures, hood/bonnet locks, highly loaded low-speed slides, oscillating or intermittent motion.
- Surface prep: thoroughly degrease; phosphating or ~180-grit blasting recommended to improve adhesion and service life.
- Application: spray (approx. 3–5 bar), dip, spin or brush; target 5–20 µm dry film.
- Curing: typically 30 min at part temperature 220 °C; short flash-off after application.
- Coverage & thinner: ~16 m2/kg at 10 µm; recommended thinner – MOLYKOTE 7415 Thinner.
