1 TECH LINE Coatings , ADAMS AVE. MURRIETA, CA 92562 USAP hone 972-775-6130 Fax data sheet : DFL-1 SELECTION DATACHEMICAL NAME / SYNONYMS: NonePRODUCT DESCRIPTION: DFL-1 is a thermally cured Dry Film Lubricant. DFL-1makes use of a unique binding system, to retain hightemperature stability while reducing friction. The filmthickness of DFL-1 , as applied, ranges from .0005" to .001". DFL-1 achieves full cure at 300F, after 1 hour at cured, DFL-1 is not affected by most chemicals. DFL-1is not designed to provide corrosion resistance as it is normallyused as a wet able lubricant in conjunction with oil or otherliquid lubricants. The lubricating ingredients in DFL-1 canlubricate at pressures above 350,000 psi. Part life increase isalso a benefit. DFL-1 makes use of a unique water basedbinding system that is non-flammable. RECOMMENDED USES: DFL-1 is a primarily a high pressure lubricant and isrecommend for use on any part subject to sliding or rotationalfriction.

2 Gears, machinery slides, camshaft assemblies, pistonskirts and bearings all benefit from an application of was initially designed to be applied to Rod and Mainbearings. DFL-1 has excellent adhesion to soft substrates aswell as harder surfaces.

The ventilatingsystem should be capable of preventing fine particulate matterfrom exceeding TLV / PEL limits. In addition to properventilation, negative pressure fresh air respirators or fresh airhoods must be used by all application personnel.
