Anti-scuffing and assembly paste
Molyslip® AS40 anti-scuffing and assembly paste is a high-performance lubricant containing molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) and graphite, formed into a soft paste.
Molyslip® AS40 is designed for use in situations where a hydrodynamic oil film cannot be tolerated or is impossible to achieve – for example during component assembly, machine start-up and high load/slow speed operations. The high load-carrying capacity of the MoS2 and graphite solids (in excess of 140,000 psi which is above the yield point of most metals) provides an ultra-low-friction physical barrier between metal surfaces preventing micro-welding or pick-up that can irrevocably damage components from occurring.
Molyslip® AS40 is suitable for multiple uses including: as an anti-seize on fasteners, an assembly aide, a lubricant on sliding mechanisms, plain bearings, pins, bushes and valves and as start-up or run-dry protection on gears.
