How Anti-Friction Coatings Work: Molykote AFCs are like paints that contain micron-sized solid lubricant particles (MoS₂, PTFE, graphite) dispersed in a resin binder system. When applied and cured, they form a dry, slippery film that homogenizes surface roughness, reduces the coefficient of friction, and creates a durable protective barrier that withstands extreme loads, temperatures, and aggressive environments.

MOLYKOTE 106 Anti-Friction Coating

MOLYKOTE® 106 Anti-Friction Coating is a heat-curing, solid lubricant coating that provides long-lasting high load-carrying capacity and a low coefficient of friction. It is used as dry lubrication for metal/metal combinations where design construction prevents the use of oil or grease, providing maintenance-free, permanent lubrication of highly stressed friction combinations.

Why Choose MOLYKOTE 106?

This coating is specifically formulated for applications involving slow speeds or oscillating operation where conventional lubricants cannot be used. It provides permanent lubrication without the need for relubrication, making it ideal for sealed-for-life components and inaccessible friction points. It offers excellent protection against stick-slip and fretting corrosion.

Typical Applications

  • Permanent lubrication of highly stressed friction combinations
  • Low-speed or oscillating operation components
  • Sealed-for-life bearings and joints
  • Applications where oil/grease cannot be used
  • Threaded connections requiring permanent lubrication
  • Sliding guides and machine ways
