As manufacturers use more aggressive fluids in metalworking machines and clamping mechanisms such as lathe chucks, lubricants with high water washout resistance and reliable tribological performance are essential to reduce downtime and relubrication cycles.

Designed for highly stressed sliding surfaces (9000N), Molykote® P-1042 No Hazard Label is more environmentally friendly as it reduces the release of harmful chemicals into the environment. This is especially important in wastewater industries as these chemicals can contaminate the water.

Overall, using Molykote® P-1042 adhesive paste without hazard symbols reduces the risk of harm to people and the environment, making it a safer and more sustainable option.

With a patented formula specifically designed to properly lubricate clamping mechanisms, MOLYKOTE® P-1042 enables manufacturers to ensure consistent clamping force in lathe chucks. In addition, MOLYKOTE® P-1042 has no curing problems in service.

• Assembly and running-in
• Machining spindles
• Sliding surfaces exposed to high pressure loads and to water or metalworking emulsion.
• fastening elements,
• grips on metalworking machines.
• Excellent lubrication for open gears, hydraulic drilling tools (hydraulic hammers, drills)

• does not contain hazardous substances according to CLP
  
• high ability to transfer loads, especially adhesive ones,
• resistant to washing off with water and water with emulsions for metalworking. 
• Prevents sticky vibrations,
• Very high load capacity (9000 N),
• high-performance, highly adhesive and adhesive paste
• excellent protection against corrosion,
  
• excellent protection against galling.

• In fastening tools: Provides desired and sustained levels of clamping force with reduced downtime and relubrication cycles.
• In heavy-duty metal-to-metal applications: Provides extended life, including hot, humid or wet environments.
