MOLYKOTE P-40 Paste V1
MOLYKOTE P-40 Paste V1 is a specialized metal-free adhesive lubrication paste engineered for demanding assembly and continuous lubrication needs. It is designed to excel in various applications including threaded connections, spline shafts, and bearing mountings. Its continuous lubrication properties make it ideal for use in brake systems (brake rods and guide bolts), axles in commercial vehicles, cams, plain bearings, open gears, and marine environments. The paste's formulation provides superior performance even in challenging corrosive conditions involving splash water or high humidity.
Application is straightforward; clean the sliding surfaces thoroughly before applying the paste using a brush, rag, or grease gun.
