WBL Dry Film Lubricant
WBL-52 is a water-based gel with super-fine synthetic graphite in suspension. When applied, the water evaporates, leaving behind a dry film. WBL-52 is used in heavy industrial applications where high temperatures rule out conventional oil or solvent-based products. The most common applications are cement kiln support rollers, stop blocks and slipper pads. Ideally, the concentrate should be diluted with water at 10:1. At that concentration, WBL-52 is not prone to separation, even over long periods of storage.
Maximum continuous temperature with regular replenishment is 1950°F (1065°C).
Applications:
- Cement kiln support rollers, stop blocks and slipper pads
- Forging of non-ferrous metals
- Aluminum die casting and extrusion including lubrication of dies and dummy blocks
- Permanent mild chill and sand core coating
- Wire drawing
- Ingot and billet mold coating
- High temperature chains
- Stop-off and anti-weld coating
- Coating for glass forming tools
Benefits
- EXCELLENT WETTING ABILITY - on metal surfaces.
- GRAPHITE PARTICLE SIZE - 1-2 microns. Does not interfere with surface of material being produced.
- ECONOMICAL - dilute with water as required.
- STABLE CONCENTRATE - minimal separation before dilution. After dilution, moderate agitation is beneficial.
- EASY APPLICATION - can be sprayed, brushed, or dipped.
- NONFLAMMABLE AND NON-COMBUSTIBLE.
