Molykote 1000

Lead- and nickel-free anti-seize paste used to reduce wear and optimize friction of threaded fasteners, or other metal-to-metal joints, enabling nondestructive dismantling, even after long exposure to high temperatures. It offers good corrosion protection, under high loads, over a wide temperature range.

Features & benefits

• Can be used over a wide range of temperatures (-30°C/-22°F to +650°C/1,202°F)
• High load-carrying capacity
• Enables nondestructive dismantling, even after long use at high temperatures
• Coefficient of friction unchanged in the area of oiled bolts, even after several bolt retightening and loosening processes
• Good corrosion protection
• No intentional polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)

Composition

• Solid lubricants
• Mineral oil
• Thickener
• Powdered metal

Applications

Suitable for bolted joints that are subjected to high temperatures up to 650°C (1,202°F) and to corrosive effects – and that after assembling and the initial operation, have to be retightened or disconnected. In order to ensure constant pre-stressing forces, uniform and steady coefficients of friction of the lubricant are necessary. Used successfully for cylinder head bolts, nozzle head screws of plastic injection molding machines, bolted joints in the chemical industry, and also for the tension rings of centrifuges.
