Dry Film Lubricants
Dry-film Lubricants for Industrial, Aerospace, and Defense Applications.
These lubricants are specifically engineered to form a thin, low-coefficient of friction film when the carrier has evaporated, providing long-lasting friction reduction and protection from contaminants and moisture. These lubricants are used when greases, oils, and commodity lubricants are not suited to the application or do not provide necessary friction reduction and coating durability.
McLube offers water-based and solvent-based dry lubricants ideal for metal-metal, metal-rubber, and metal-polymer interactions. We also offer dry-film lubricant sprays for ease of application and custom formulated dry film lubricants for unique or challenging applications in manufacturing, defense, and aerospace. We have engineered specialty lubricants since 1954. Contact us today and we will put our decades of coating and lubricating experience to work for you.
