Lubricating Materials
Molybdenum Disulfide - Extremely effective lubricant under heavy loads up to 750 deg F (1400 deg F in vacuum). 


Graphite - Softer than Molybdenum Disulfide. An effective lubricant at temperatures up to 2000 deg F. Not recommended for use in a vacuum (requires oxygen on surface). Electrically conductive. Restricted from use in some military and commercial specifications.


PTFE. Polytetrafluroethylene. Good for light lubrication. Has the lowest coefficient of friction. Excellent for corrosion resistance, and anti-Stick/ release. 


Tungsten Disulfide - Similar to Molybdenum Disulfide but harder. Effective to 850 deg F.
