MOLYKOTE TP-42 PASTE

Molykote TP-42 Paste is a high-load-capacity assembly paste formulated with a blend of mineral and synthetic base oils, thickened with lithium soap and enhanced with white solid lubricant additives. It is designed to prevent seizure, wear, and corrosion on metal-to-metal contact surfaces.

Application Areas:

• Vises, clamping systems, molds, and machine tools
• Sliding surfaces and bearings operating under high pressure
• Metalworking machines exposed to coolant or emulsions
• Assembly and initial run-in lubrication of metal-to-metal contact systems

Key Advantages:

• Very high load-carrying capacity
• Excellent adhesion prevents the paste from being easily washed off surfaces
• High resistance to water, steam, and metalworking fluids
• Prevents stick-slip (jerky movement) issues
• Reduces wear and galling (cold welding) risk
• Provides long-term corrosion protection
