Molykote 1000 is a solid lubricant that is available in a spray and a paste. It is ideal for bolted metal joints that are subjected to high temperatures (up to 650°C) and corrosive effects. It contains no lead or nickel and is designed to reduce wear and optimise friction of threaded fasteners, or other metal-to-metal joints. If you have bolts that need to be re-tightened or disconnected after assembly then Molykote 1000 is perfect as it prevents destruction whilst dismantling even after long use at high temperatures.

Application:

Suitable for bolted joints that are subjected to high temperatures up to 650°C and to corrosive effects, and which, after assembling and the initial operation, have to be re-tightened or disconnected. In order to ensure constant pre-stressing forces, uniform and steady coefficients of friction of the lubricants 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.

Benefits:

• Can be used over a wide range of temperatures (-30°C to + 650°C)
• High load carrying capacity
• Enables non-destructive dismantling, even after long use at high temperatures
• Coefficient of friction unchanged in the area of oiled bolts, even after several bolt re-tightening and loosening processes
• Good corrosion protection
