- Product Highlights
DFL-1 makes use of a unique water based binding system that is non-flammable. DFL-1 can be modified to provide enhanced features. Versions that can lubricate at temperatures over 2000°F are also available.
- Features
- Excellent flexibility/ bending adhesion
- Good corrosion test data
- Good chemical resistance
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Recommended Uses
TLML is recommended for use on any component where heat and friction are an issue. Gears, shafts, hubs, cams, splined shafts, wear blocks, springs, bearings (Note: for Babbitt type bearings use DFL-1), pistons, cylinder walls, rotors and more.
Not Recommended For:Substrates that cannot handle the cure temperature.
- Acceptable Substrates for Application
Ferrous and non-ferrous substrates, plastics and composites that can handle the cure temperature.
- Film Type
DFL-1 is a soft lubricious material that is designed to burnish to a near zero film buildup while still providing full properties, allowing normal clearances to be maintained. DFL-1 is a conformal coating and can burnish in use to achieve the running clearances that are optimal. DFL-1 is impregnated into a properly prepared surface.
