Dry lubricants meet growing convenience and cleanliness requirements
Published in Der Zuliefermarkt, April 2004
Dry lubricants – and in particular bonded coatings, bearing compounds and electroplated coatings containing solid lubricants – serve primarily to prevent wear and optimise friction. They can be found in all kinds of applications and meet individual requirements over a very long time, e.g. corrosion protection, resistance to temperature, vacuum and radiation; they also help to prevent stick-slip and fretting corrosion. Since they firmly adhere to the component surface, problems of flow-off or similar phenomena that might occur during machine downtime or storage are avoided in the first place. The gluing together of lubricated parts, which is an issue in automatic assembly, is also eliminated. Other benefits include the versatility of dry lubricants allowing cost-saving designs in many industrial areas.
