About this type of lubricant
A paste is a very high concentration of solid lubricant in a small amount of carrier oil — closer to a thick suspension than to a grease. It is used where a grease would be squeezed out: assembly and running-in of tight metal-to-metal fits, press fits, splines, threaded fasteners and anti-seize duty. The solids stay behind on the surface after the carrier is gone, which is the point.
How to choose
Pastes are for assembly and slow, heavily loaded contact, not for continuous high-speed lubrication — use a grease for that. For threaded joints, the coefficient of friction is the number that matters, because it is what a torque figure assumes; a paste that changes friction changes the clamping force the bolt actually achieves. Copper- and metal-filled pastes should not be used on stainless or on joints where galvanic corrosion is a risk.
How to order
Specify the pack size and, where more than one grade shares a name, the exact grade on the RFQ. Indus Hydraulics is an authorised distributor and quotes MOLYKOTE® from Dubai stock where the grade is held; less common grades ship to order. Our engineers will confirm the grade against your application and operating conditions before you commit.

Anti-seize and assembly pastes: what the solids do and what the temperature rating means
A paste is for the surfaces a grease cannot protect: threads under torque, press fits and bolts that must come apart after years at temperature. How anti-seize and assembly pastes differ, and how to read a 1,400 °C rating.
