Dry Graphite Film Lubricant — Aerosol - Bulk

Dry graphite film lubricant is used to reduce friction on metal-to-metal wear surfaces without leaving a wet, oily residue. Common applications include railroad switches, coupling components, autotrack chains, tracks, hinges, automotive and industrial gaskets, thread lubrication, internal combustion engine components, and other metal-to-metal wear points in railroad and industrial settings.

The Aerosol - Bulk uses a quick-dry carrier formulation that evaporates rapidly after application, leaving behind a dry graphite film. It will not run or migrate once applied, making it ideal for precision applications on components where wet lubricants would attract contaminants or cause safety concerns.

The Dry Graphite Film Lubricant is available in aerosol cans (20 oz, sold in cases of 12) for precision and smaller-scale applications, and in bulk liquid formats including 4×1 gallon cases, 5-gallon pails, and 55-gallon drums for large-scale industrial or railroad maintenance operations.
