MOLYKOTE® 1000 Paste is a lead- and nickel-free anti-seize paste designed to reduce wear and optimize friction in threaded fasteners and metal-to-metal joints. It enables nondestructive dismantling, even after prolonged exposure to high temperatures, while providing good corrosion protection under high loads.
- Suitable for a wide operating temperature range from -30°C (-22°F) to +650°C (1,202°F)
- High load-carrying capacity
- Enables nondestructive dismantling, even after prolonged use at high temperatures
- Maintains a consistent coefficient of friction on lubricated bolts, even after repeated tightening and loosening
- Provides good corrosion protection
- Contains no intentionally added PTFE or PFAS
- Solid lubricants
- Mineral oil
- Thickener
- Powdered metal
Suitable for bolted joints exposed to high temperatures up to 650°C (1,202°F) and corrosive environments, particularly where joints need to be retightened or dismantled after assembly and initial operation.
Consistent and stable friction coefficients help maintain uniform pre-stressing forces in bolted joints.
Typical applications include:
- Cylinder head bolts
- Nozzle head screws on plastic injection molding machines
- Bolted joints in the chemical industry
- Tension rings on centrifuges
- Helps maintain consistent bolt tension during repeated tightening and loosening
- Reduces wear and optimizes friction between threaded metal components
- Facilitates easier dismantling after high-temperature exposure
- Provides protection against corrosion in demanding environments
