Molykote P 37 - SwanTek

1 Features High temperature; solid lubricantsstable up to approximately 2550 F(1400 C) Excellent lubricity Coefficient of friction within therange of oiled bolts Very high load carrying capacity Contains less than 250 ppm of sulfur,and less than 200 ppm total chlorine,fluorine, bromine and iodineMolykote P 37 Ultrapure HighTemperaturePasteMolykote P 37 Ultrapure HighTemperature Paste is composed ofhigh-temperature-stable solid lubricants(zirconium dioxide and others) in amixture of ultrapure, sulfur-free ProtectionAlloys containing chromium, nickeland molybdenum have a relatively thinoxide layer that can be squeezed outwhen the bolts or nuts are tightened,resulting in welds on the flanks of thethreads. Molykote P 37 Ultrapure HighTemperature Paste has been speciallydesigned to provide lubrication andprotection for these ResistanceMetal alloys containing nickel andchromium can experience stress crack-ing and corrosion when exposed tolubricants containing sulfur andhalogens like chlorine, fluorine,bromine and iodine.

2 Sulfur, forexample, can combine with nickel toform crystals of nickel sulfide, leadingto stress fractures in the AntiseizePerformance forHigh TemperatureApplications Purity certificate available Non-carcinogenic Helps prevent seizure and damage ofthreaded components duringassembly and service Enables and improves disassembly ofthreaded connections after hightemperature exposure Contains no halogen- or sulfur-basedcompounds, MoS2, heavy metals ormetals that embrittle alloysApplicationsMolykote P 37 Ultrapure High Temperature Paste is intended for application onthreaded applications of all kinds, in particular those consisting of ultrapurealloys with high chromium, nickel or molybdenum content.
