Definitive Lubrication Technology

Industrial Lubrication Agents
McLube dry film lubricants, oil dispersions, greases and pastes meet a vast range of industrial requirements. McLube dry film lubricants contain MoS2 (molybdenum disulfide) and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene). They adhere unusually well to all types of surfaces including machine parts and fittings, gears, cams and springs; leather, plastic and elastomeric gaskets and packing; natural and synthetic cords, twines and cables. By minimizing friction, these coatings reduce power input and prevent part seizure. McLube dry lubricants work themselves into surfaces to promote longer wear life, repel dust and contaminants and provide superior protection against scoring, surface corrosion and extreme pressure.

McLube oil dispersions are formulations of MoS2 in various oils for use on plain bearings, sliding surfaces, threaded connections, press fittings and open gears. They are particularly suited for use in hard to reach areas. McLube greases and pastes containing MoS2 are ideal for high and low temperature applications. The addition of MoS2 yields grease and paste lubricants that carry high loads, reduce wear, lower maintenance costs, are environmentally safe and can replace more hazardous and wasteful lubricants. Let Team McLube enhance your bottom line by greatly increasing the energy and cost efficiency of anything that moves.

   Dry Lubricants

  • Molybdenum Disulfide (MoS2)
  • MoS2 with adhesion promoters
  • Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
  • PTFE with adhesion promoters
  • Mixed PTFE and MoS2 with adhesion promoters

    Dry Lubricant Properties - MoS2

  • Minimize friction
  • Furnish high load performance
  • Reduce power input
  • Prevent metal to metal contact
  • Provide superior protection against wear, seizure, galling and scoring
  • Repel dust
  • Protect against moisture and corrosion
  • Are not affected by temperature variations over a broad range
  • Adhere well to all types of surfaces
  • Work themselves into surfaces for longer life
  • Liquid oxygen compatibility

    Dry Lubricant Properties - PTFE

  • Low coefficient of friction
  • Thermal stability
  • Chemical stability
  • Minimum stick-slip
  • Insolubility/inertness
  • Antistick nature
  • Cleanliness
  • Liquid oxygen compatibility

    MoS2 and PTFE solid lubricants impart excellent lubricating properties to surfaces and enhanced lubrication properties result when MoS2 and PTFE are used together as mixtures.
