 New AFC for brake pad
clips
"Dry" lubricants, such as anti-friction coatings, can provide more
precise friction control with a clean and slippery film, which fills in surface
irregularities.
Molykote® D-708 Anti-Friction Coating, a paint-like dry lubricant,
offers a number of advantages, including:
-
Controlled friction with less wear and
potential noise
-
Minimized roughness and uneven pad
wear
-
Durability across a wide
service-temperature range

Meet brake system lubrication needs with application-matched
choices
Advanced Molykote brake-system lubricants can provide long-lasting
lubrication under extremes of load, speed and operation. They resist water
washout, dirt and dust buildup, oxidation, and searing heat and numbing cold.
Most have good compatibility with common brake-system elastomers such as EPDM,
neoprene and others. They include:
-
High-performance greases with a choice of
consistencies, material compatibility and with fluorinated choices for
especially harsh environments
-
Severe-duty anti-seize
pastes with high solid-lubricant content for smoothing initial run-in and
handling heavy loads at low sliding speeds
-
Paint-like anti-friction
coatings that provide dependable dry lubrication corrosion protection and
squeak-and-rattle prevention
