Gear Kote is a solid film lubricant, also known as dry film lubricant, which will provide a thin/lubricate film that will prevent galling and seizing. Gear Kote aids in heat dissipation and protects the base metal from corrosion while reducing friction. The appearance of Gear Kote is charcoal gray and upon burnishing will take on a sheen. The ingredients of Gear Kote are solid lubricants and resin binders which provide the means to secure the lubricate solid to the base material. The primary solid used for lubrication is Molybdenum Disulfide (MOs 2 or Moly) and because Gear Kote uses Moly it will withstand pressures in excess of 300,000 PSI.

In all applications, Gear Kote provides outstanding lubrication and corrosion protection for all major moving parts. In firearm this would include slides, bolts and clips. In Product
automotive/motorcycle applications Gear Kote will provide reduced friction. It will provide lubricity to gears, levers, cams, pistons and any sliding mechanism (Ball and Needle bearings
excluded.) For industrial purposes, Gear Kote will provide an excellent dry film lubricant when combined with other coatings such as Tin or Titanium for use on drill bits. In all cases Gear Kote helps reduce the operating temperatures of these components and will result in smoother pulls, rotation, actions and shifting.

Gear Kote Application

Gear Kote will provide:

  • Outstanding corrosion protection. Gear Kote affords the user outstanding corrosion protection, a minimum of 100 hours salt spray at 5% salt.
  • Resistant to chemicals, oils and solvents common to Aircraft, Industrial and Automotive Industries.
  • Reduction of friction and heat. Gear Kote will withstand temperatures up to 500 degrees F and as low as -200 degrees F.
  • Outstanding lubrication... bearing pressure test at 90,000 PSI for 400 min.
  • Will not pick up dirt, dust or lint on exposed parts.
  • Effective even if gearbox oil is lost.

Gear Kote can be applied to all ferrous and non-ferrous metals, over all types of plating and even some plastics. Gear Kote's uses are only limited to the imagination!

Gear Kote and its Uses:

  • 1. Pistons, to eliminate friction and to provide better lubricity when used with oil. Gear Kote is a very good heat barrier when used on pistons and domes. This product will also shed carbon. A combination of coated pistons and piston walls will result in reduced damage from piston rock at bottom dead center. Race engines have shown piston life improvement of over three times normal.
  • Valve Spring and Retainers, to reduce guide wear. Provide heat barrier on face of valves, and shed carbon. Improve air and fluid flow. Reduce wear and heat on springs thereby increasing valve life and increases performance.
  • Rod and Main Bearings, to provide a protective lubricant between mating parts. Always a lubricant in place.
  • Crankshaft, Cams, Lifters, and Push Rods, to provide a protective lubricant in the event of momentary loss of oil and provide protective lubricant.
  • Transmission and Rear End Gears, to reduce friction and gaining more power to the wheels. Easier shifting and less wear on components. Lighter weight oils can be used with protected parts leading to further performance gains.
  • Gun and Rifle parts, to coat internal slides, trigger mechanisms leading to smoother pulls and permanent lubrication.
  • Gearboxes of electric motors that drive conveyor lines resulting in less amps to drive motors which will result in less electricity used.
  • Drill bits to reduce friction provide lubricity and increase production life. One Manufacture of aircraft used Gear Kote on drill bits and went from 8 holes per bit to 40. (Note: Not all cutting tools will perform as well due to the type of material being cut.)
  • Trigger mechanisms, clip springs and pistol barrels for firearms.
