What Is Dry Film Lubricant?

Dry Film Lubricant

Dry film lubricant is a solid lubricant applied as a thin film, without oils or grease. It provides a protective layer that reduces friction and wear, enhancing performance and lifespan. Ideal for extreme temperatures and harsh environments, dry film lubricant is used in automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing industries where clean, dry lubrication is needed.

Popular types include PTFE, known for low friction; MoS2, for high-pressure environments; and Graphite, for high temperatures. Each type of dry film lube has unique properties for specific applications.
