Molykote® P‑40 (S) is a high-adhesion industrial paste designed for assembly and long-term lubrication of metal components. It does not contain any intentional PFAS. This non-metallic paste provides reliable protection against wear, fretting, and corrosion under heavy-duty operating conditions. It is suitable for use in humid or corrosive environments, ensuring smooth assembly and easy disassembly of threaded connections, sliding surfaces, and other mechanical parts.
Key Features:
- Excellent adhesion to metal surfaces for reliable lubrication and assembly.
- High load-carrying capacity, reducing wear and extending component life.
- Corrosion and fretting protection, even under harsh conditions.
- Water-resistant, maintaining performance in wet or humid environments.
- Wide operating temperature range: –40 °C to +121 °C (as paste), up to +1093 °C as solid lubricant.
- Non-metallic composition, free from intentionally added PTFE or any other PFAS.
Applications:Molykote® P‑40 (S) is ideal for:
- Assembly and lubrication of threaded fasteners, bearings, and sliding surfaces.
- Industrial machinery, gears, and guides.
- Brake systems, shafts, and metal guides.
- Any application requiring protection against fretting, corrosion, or wear.
