Molybdenum Disulfide
Molybdenum Disulfide Coatings are commonly used in applications where load carrying capacity, operating temperature and coefficient of friction are primary concerns. This coating provides effective lubrication in a wide range of loads, in many cases exceeding 250,000 psi. Moly coatings lubricate sacrificially by transferring lubricant between the two mating surfaces, which helps to reduce the wear and the coefficient of friction.
Moly coatings are a combination of molybdenum disulfide lubricant and high performance resins. Moly coatings are thermally cured and thoroughly bonded to the base metal of the coated part.
