MOLYKOTE G-N Metal Assembly Paste
MOLYKOTE G-N Metal Assembly Paste is a heavy-duty lubricating paste for reducing friction and wear in metal assemblies. MOLYKOTE G-N Metal Assembly Paste is a high-performance lubricating paste composed of molybdenum disulfide, white solid lubricants, and mineral oil. This formulation provides a low coefficient of friction immediately upon application, eliminating the need for a burnishing process. The paste can be easily applied to clean surfaces using brushing or burnishing methods, creating a thin, effective lubricating film. For broader coverage, the aerosol spray version (MOLYKOTE G-n Metal Assembly Spray) offers a convenient method of application.
The paste is engineered to protect against friction and high loads in various applications. It facilitates smoother press fitting by reducing chatter and the required force, minimizing part distortion. Furthermore, it extends the operational lifespan of moving components by preventing galling during the initial run-in phase and offering protection against fretting wear, corrosion, and welding in static joints.
Product Key Properties: Extreme-pressure lubricant for assembly, press fitting, threaded connections, running-in and maintenance
Product Performance Benefits: Excellent protection against fretting wear and corrosion. Extend service life. Low friction. Lubricate beyond the yield point of most metals in boundary applications, reducing wear and helping to prevent seizing, galling and excessive friction. Aid run-in and reduce frictional force and surface damage. Low coefficient of friction allows for effective conversion of torquing force into holding force; reduces the force required for disassembly of threaded fasteners. Good corrosion protection. Good fretting protection. Good plastic & rubber compatibility. High temperature performance. High wear resistance. Low speed performance. Wide temperature range. No intentional polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
