Molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) coatings are widely used as solid film lubricants due to their excellent performance in high-load, high-pressure, and high-temperature environments. Here are some key features:
- Low Friction: Provides a smooth, low-friction surface, reducing wear and tear.
- High Load Capacity: Can handle loads exceeding 250,000 psi
- Temperature Stability: Effective in a wide temperature range, typically from -320°F to 500°F
- Corrosion Resistance: Offers some resistance to corrosion, though it is not its primary function
- Dry Film Lubricant: Functions without the need for additional lubricants, making it ideal for vacuum and cleanroom environments
MoS₂ coatings are commonly used in automotive, aerospace, military, and industrial applications to enhance the performance and longevity of components such as fasteners, bearings, and gears.
MoS₂ coatings are PFAS-free.
