Applications

* As a dry film lubricant for components exposed to abrasive or dusty environments as threaded connections, pins, levers, pivots, splines, bolts, chains.

* As a metal pretreatment lubricant prior to assembly for effective running in to reduce wear, friction and eliminate metal to metal contact and seizure.

* As a lubricant for components exposed to critical environmental conditions as vacuums, radiation, high temperatures, humidity.

* As a heavy duty, high temperature thread compound to prevent seizure and corrosion and facilitate easy assembly and non-destructive disassembly.

*As an anti friction coating for metal cutting tools as millers, reamers, taps, drills, gear cutters, punches, dies to prevent sticking, binding and metal build up; increase life of tools, production quality and efficiency.  *As an extreme pressure lubricant for heavily loaded or stressed surfaces to prevent wear, friction, galling, scuffing, seizure and fretting as for press fits, pins, levers, pivots, bearings, gears, splines, journals, linkages.  

Benefits 

* Service temperature range of -180°C to +450°C 

* Low coefficient of friction; high surface load and pressure  withstanding capacity  High and low temperature performance  *Protects surfaces from wear, galling and seizure.

  * Oils, grease and solvent resistant.

* Prevents stick-slip and fretting corrosion.

 * Provides clean dry film lubrication and does not accumulate dirt or abrasives  Offers surface protection from corrosion.

* Lubricates under adverse operating environments such as in vacuum or near radiation.

* Provides maintenance free permanent lubrication where oil or grease contamination cannot be tolerated.

* Excellent lubricity and highly abrasion resistant  Increases service life of equipment.

Clean and degrease surface completely prior to application. Phosphating or sandblasting the metal surfaces will increase the adhesion of the film and increase service life. Stir ASV® DF 8221 thoroughly before applying by spraying, brushing or dipping methods. Recommended film thickness is 5 to 20 µm. Use as supplied. Never dilute or mix with other oil or grease.

Directions for Use (aerosol)

Shake the can vigorously for a couple of minutes before spraying till the bearing noise from inside the container is audible. Repeat before every application. Spray onto a clean, dry and degreased surface. Only a thin film of this lubricant is required. Allow solvents to evaporate. Spray from a distance of 20-30 cm. Repeat if necessary. Excess lubricant may fall off during assembly. For cleaning the valve dip-tube after spraying, invert the can and depress the actuator button for a few short bursts till only the clear propellant comes out.

Caution (aerosol) Contains flammable solvents and propellant. Do not spray near naked flame, hot surfaces or energized equipment. Use with adequate ventilation
