Description
About MOLYKOTE® D-3484 Anti-Friction Coating (1kg)
OVERVIEW:
MOLYKOTE® D-3484 is a specialty anti-friction coating (solid film lubricant) designed for metal/metal combinations operating under high loads, low to medium speeds, and where clean, dry lubrication is required. It forms a durable, wear-resistant lubricating film after curing, providing excellent performance under extreme pressure and protecting components against wear and corrosion. D-3484 is particularly suitable for applications where conventional greases or oils are impractical or where a clean, dry surface is needed.
KEY FEATURES:
High Load-Carrying Capacity
Provides excellent wear protection and extreme-pressure (EP) performance for heavily loaded components.
Wide Operating Temperature Range
Performs effectively from approximately -180°C to +250°C, suitable for applications exposed to extreme temperatures.
Dry Lubrication
Forms a solid lubricating film that resists attracting dust, dirt, and contaminants — ideal for cleanroom, dusty, or chemically aggressive environments.
Corrosion Protection
Offers excellent corrosion protection, helping extend component life even in humid or chemically aggressive conditions.
Excellent Adhesion
Adheres strongly to properly prepared metal surfaces, ensuring durable, long-lasting lubrication.
APPLICATIONS:
-
Sliding Guides and Tracks – Lubrication of guide rails, cams, and sliding bearings under high load and harsh environmental conditions.
-
Threaded Connections – Applied to bolts, screws, and fasteners to prevent seizure and facilitate disassembly after exposure to high temperatures.
-
Bearings and Bushings – Dry lubrication of plain bearings and bushings where oil or grease is impractical.
-
Press-Fit Components – Prevents stick-slip and fretting corrosion in interference fits.
-
Heavy-Duty Industrial and Aerospace Applications – Suitable for components subject to extreme temperatures, heavy loads, or demanding environmental conditions.
PACKAGING:
MOLYKOTE® D-3484 Anti-Friction Coating is typically supplied in 1kg cans, with other packaging formats available depending on regional availability and application needs.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
-
Surface Preparation: Clean and degrease surfaces thoroughly. For optimal adhesion, mechanically roughen surfaces (e.g., grit blasting).
-
Application: Apply the coating by spraying, brushing, or dipping to achieve a thin, uniform film.
-
Curing: Allow the coating to air dry, then heat-cure according to the recommended curing schedule to develop full performance properties.
-
Maintenance: Inspect periodically and reapply as needed depending on wear and operating conditions.
SAFETY AND HANDLING:
MOLYKOTE® D-3484 contains organic solvents and should be used in well-ventilated areas. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and goggles. Keep away from open flames and sources of ignition. Refer to the product’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for complete safety, handling, and disposal information.
