Description
GLEITMO 980 is an air-drying solid film lubricant with an inorganic binder and solvent. It contains a specially-processed polytetrafluorethylene as an active ingredient with high lubricating and separating effects. GLEITMO 980 is a fast drying solid film lubricant which gives a thin lubricant film with excellent anti-adhesive properties. GLEITMO 980 adheres very well on many materials.
Field of application
GLEITMO 980 is used for dry lubrication of a wide variety of material pairings, such as metal, plastics, rubber, wood and non-wovwn materials. As clean lubricating coating on goods with high risk of soiling. Instead of oil or grease lubricants in the textile and plastic industries for slatted blinds, roller blinds, folding and sliding doors. For initial lubrication on injection-moulded plastic parts. Squeaking or sticking friction points or wood, plastic or leather. As assembly aid for rubber seals.
Method of application
GLEITMO 980 in a spray can is the simplest way to use the lubricant. GLEITMO 980 may also be applied via compressed air and airless spraying systems. Agitators are recommended for the container in this case. Immersion is economical for large quantities of small parts. Owing to uneven coating thickness, application with a brush or roller is only recommendable if spraying or immersion is not possible.
Note
Stir well before use! Shelf-life: 12 month in closed original containers at room temperature
