Technical Information PTFE dry
Dry, surface lubricant to treat mechanical parts of metal and plastic, where no residues of oil or grease are desired. PTFE dry leaves no residues of oil or grease (dry film) and prevents wear and sticking. PTFE dry has a very low friction factor and an excellent adhesion and is resistant to weather influences. PTFE dry is suitable for parts which are liable to light load and low speed. MoTip PTFE Dry can also be used as release agent for moulds, where the use of silicones is not desired.

Application:
- Bring the can to room temperature.
- Optimal operating temperature 5° - 30°C.
- Shake can vigorously before use.
- Apply MoTip PTFE dry in a thin even layer.
- A dry PTFE film is left after evaporation (ca. 1 minute).
Tips for spray painting
Protect the object and the surrounding area from spray mist.
Temperature should range between +10°C and +25°C, max. air humidity 60 %.
Store in a dry place. Protect from direct sunlight and other sources of heat. Use only during dry weather, in places protected from the wind, and in well-ventilated rooms. Follow the warning texts on the labels!
