WS2 Dry Film Lubricant

Originally developed for NASA, WS2's unique, extensively modified lamellar composition of Tungsten Disulfide outperforms other dry coating lubricants. Our proprietary process, Process SL-39, impinges a dry metallic coating without heat, binders or adhesives. The lubricant coating bonds instantly to any metal or resin substrate with a thickness of 0.5 microns (20 millionths).

• Solves problems such as: friction, excessive wear, seizing, galling and fretting.
• Overcomes or reduces mechanical lubrication problems, improving performance and extending service life.
• Eliminates and reduces costly maintenance problems that cause breakdowns and expensive downtime by stopping galling, fretting and friction caused by dissimilar metals and their different hardness factors.
• Maintains the dimensional integrity of the substrate to within 0.5 microns with no build-up.
• Withstands loads to 100,000 psi (or load capacity equal to substrate) and operates in the temperature range of -460°F to 1200°F (-273°C to 650°C).
• Offers 100% lubricity throughout its texture.
• Is inert, inorganic, non-toxic, non-distortive, non-corrosive and resistant to most fuels and solvents. It is compatible with and enhances the performance of all oils and greases.
• Resists carbon buildup due to its extremely low co-efficient of friction, less than half that of Graphite, Moly (MoS2) and Teflon.
• Molecularly bonds to all materials and platings and can only be eliminated by removing the bonded substrate.

• Vacuum Compatible Lubrication
• Maintenance of the dimensional integrity of the substrate to within 0.5 microns (20 millionths) with no build up
• Enhancement of the flow resin due to its low coefficient of friction
• Reduction in part weight. Part is not packed as tight
• Release of parts quicker
• Reduction of pressure and mold wear
• Lower operation temperatures
• The capability to produce more parts per hour
• Reduction of rejects
• An inert, inorganic, non-toxic, non-distortive, non-corrosive lubrication that is resistant to most fuel solvents
• Compatibility with and enhancement of all other lubricants and releasing agents
• Slight delay of corrosion
• Bonding to all metal or plastic materials and platings and cannot be removed without eliminating the bonded substrate
• Elimination of material transfer to finished agents
• Application to No. 1 diamond mirror finish ... lense quality
• 100% lubricity throughout the entire mold
• Application into slots or holes as small as .060 inch
• Application to the entire mold surface or only specified inserts, cavities and core pins

• Require heat curing
• Build up on corners and edges
• Transfer to finished parts, therefore does not require secondary cleaning for painting, plating etc.
