BONDERITE® L-GP 2404 ACHESON is a solvent-based, graphite lubricant that imparts dry film lubrication and fluid film formation for various applications.
BONDERITE® L-GP 2404 ACHESON (previously known as DAG 2404) is a graphite dispersion in white spirit that evaporates upon application to form a tenacious film with outstanding lubricity. The adherent film reduces metal-on-metal contact to lower friction, provide parting, and prevent wear. It can lubricate components up to 400 °C in air and above 1200 °C in reducing or inert environments. There is no low-temperature limit, giving the product wide temperature applicability. Additionally, it demonstrates excellent penetration characteristics, penetrating into closely woven fabrics, fine-pore cellular materials, sintered metal, porous polymers, and composite bearing substrates. This unique ability makes it particularly suitable for applications involving intricate or porous surfaces where uniform coverage is paramount. Beyond its ready-for-use form, BONDERITE® L-GP 2404 ACHESON's flexibility allows it to be diluted with various non-polar compounds, facilitating the creation of custom graphite-based penetrating fluids, lubricating oils, and liquified gases tailored to specific industrial needs. The lubricant also enables innovative options when blended with resins to engineer surface coatings that require dry lubricating characteristics. As a versatile and high-performing lubricant, it supports efficient operations across a wide range of temperatures and environmental conditions, reinforcing its position as a valuable asset for manufacturers seeking reliable and effective lubrication solutions. BONDERITE® L-GP 2404 ACHESON can be applied using brush, dip, spray, and roller coat techniques.
