MOLYKOTE® Specialty Lubricants for the oil & gas industry
DuPont Specialty Electronic Materials Switzerland GmbH
For more than 75 years – since 1948 – MOLYKOTE® has been a trusted partner, helping engineers and manufacturers meet some of the world’s toughest design and lubrication challenges. Now, with the addition of DuPont’s technologies and expertise, we are even better positioned to create solutions for emerging trends.
MOLYKOTE® offers a wide range of products divided into six product categories: greases, pastes, oils, compounds, dispersions and anti-friction coatings. Within these categories, complementary specialties beyond lubricants also are included – products such as wax-based coatings for temporary corrosion protection, as well as cleaners. This broad product offering helps to streamline your purchasing process. Turn the page for an overview of how these six categories of products can help solve a variety of challenges across the oil and gas industry.

MOLYKOTE® Anti-Friction Coatings (AFCs)
DuPont Specialty Electronic Materials Switzerland GmbH
High-value, high-performance long-term lubrication
Often described as “lubricating paints,” MOLYKOTE® AFCs contain solid lubricants – rather than coloring pigment – dispersed through carefully selected resin blends and solvents. The choice of raw materials and the concentration of each ingredient are important to the application-based customization of each coating.
MOLYKOTE® Specialty Lubricant improves reliability of rotary steerable drilling equipment: MOLYKOTE® P-37 Anti-Seize Paste reduces thread failures
DuPont Specialty Electronic Materials Switzerland GmbH
Customer: Noble Drilling Corporation in Sugar Land, Texas, USA, is a global leader in oil-drilling technologies. Challenge: Prevent cold-welding, galling and failure of stainless steel threaded connections tightened to extremely high torque levels.
Solution: Replace a traditional anti-seize paste — which was being squeezed out of the high-torque connections and causing thread failures — with an ultrapure, metal-free and more durable solid-film lubricant.
Product: MOLYKOTE® P-37 Anti-Seize Paste

Description
MOLYKOTE® Pastes can be classified into three categories: general lubrication pastes, assembly pastes and thread pastes. MOLYKOTE® brand Specialty Lubricants can help your threaded connections perform well in service, from initial assembly through repeated disassemblies. MOLYKOTE® Pastes are specially formulated to withstand harsh conditions; to perform at a wide range of service temperatures; and to resist the effects of heavy loads, salt spray or other contaminants. Pastes are designed to be a long-term solution: High loadings of solid lubricants ensure solids will remain in place, even under extreme conditions such as high temperatures or heavy loads. MOLYKOTE® Pastes can be divided into three general categories: assembly pastes, general lubrication pastes and threaded connection pastes. Some pastes fit well into more than one category. The MOLYKOTE® technical support team can assist you in choosing the best paste for your specific application and technical requirements.
