Moly Coated Bolts

Molybdenum disulfide coated bolts are commonly used to improve the performance in extremes of load carrying capacity, operating temperature and coefficient of friction. This coating provides effective lubrication in a wide range of loads, in many cases exceeding 250,000 psi. Moly coatings lubricate sacrificially by transferring lubricant between the two mating surfaces, which helps to reduce both wear and the coefficient of friction.

Moly coatings are a combination of molybdenum disulfide lubricant and high performance resins. The coating is thermally cured to bond thoroughly with the base metal of the coated part.

Moly coated bolts can solve problems associated with corrosion, chemical exposure, and abrasion. offer excellent corrosion and chemical resistance and a barrier protection better than phosphate. With Moly’s exceptional barrier protection, it is appropriate for more severe environments and is often used in chemical processing and oil field equipment.

Moly Coatings – Molybdenum Disulfide Coatings

Moly coatings are molybdenum disulfide lubricant combuined high performance resins. The coating is thermally cured to bond to the coated part. Molybdenum disulfide coatings are used to improve the lubricity of a mating parts in extreme load conditions to reduce the coefficient of friction. The coating provides lubrication in many cases exceeding 250,000 psi. Moly coatings lubricate by transferring lubricant between the two mating surfaces, this reduces both wear and achieves the lower coefficient of friction.

Typical Applications:

Moly coated slide gates, Threaded fasteners, Moly coated bolts and moly coated studs.
