Product information
What DL 100 does
Slickote DL 100 is a molybdenum disulfide solid film lubricant for the places wet lubricants can't go: surfaces where oil and grease are difficult to apply or retain, or where they would collect dirt and dust and turn into an abrasive paste.

Applications & coating system
Plain and spherical bearings, guides, hinges and threads where wet lubricant is difficult to retain.
The heat-cured, resin-bonded film reduces wear and corrosion and prevents galling and seizure of metals. It is supplied ready to apply and is built for sliding-motion hardware — plain and spherical bearings, flap tracks, hinges, threads, and cam surfaces.
DL 100 and PTFE 200X
DL 100 uses molybdenum disulfide as its solid lubricant. Compare with PTFE 200X when choosing between a MoS₂ film and a PTFE/MoS₂ system.

DL 100 provides dry lubrication on sliding metal surfaces where wet lubricant is difficult to retain, helping reduce wear and resist galling.
Gears & drive components

A bonded MoS₂ film lubricates the metal contact surfaces. Gear load, speed and film thickness need to be evaluated for the intended drive.
Working surface: The contacting metal interface. Rubber, springs, seals and surrounding assemblies are context only. Illustrative applications and representative finishes. Confirm the substrate, preparation, and service requirements with Slickote before specifying a coating.
