AS60 is a high-performance anti-scuffing and assembly paste formulated with pure molybdenum disulfide (MoS2).
AS60 is specifically engineered for applications where a hydrodynamic oil film cannot be used or achieved, such as during component assembly, machine start-up, and high load/low speed operations. The MoS2 solid lubricant offers an impressive load-bearing capacity (>140,000 psi, exceeding the yield point of most metals), creating an ultra-low friction barrier that prevents cold welding or metal pick-up, which could otherwise cause severe damage to components.
AS60 is versatile and can be used in a range of applications, including assembly of transition and interference fit components, lubrication of sliding mechanisms, plain bearings, pins, bushes, and valves, as well as providing start-up or dry-run protection for gears.
AS60 may, in some cases, serve as an alternative to traditional metal-based and metal-free anti-seize compounds.
Features
- Facilitates the assembly of tight-tolerance components
- Reduces friction and wear
- Protects against fretting corrosion
- Endures extreme load conditions
- Ensures smooth bedding-in without scuffing or scoring
Application
AS60 is ideal for the assembly of transition and interference fit components, lubrication of sliding mechanisms, plain bearings, pins, bushes, and valves, as well as offering protection during start-up or dry-run conditions in gear systems.
