Bonded Coatings

Bonded coatings are dry lubricants with exceptional characteristics.

GLEIT-µ bonded coatings: Selected solid lubricants in combination with coordinated binder systems are the starting point for every bonded varnish.

Through careful application these bonded coatings become a bonded coating system with exceptional wear and friction characteristics.

A bonded coating system should always be considered in combination with the method of application. When it is matched to the material and aim of the deployment, optimal and, above all, constant conditions can be achieved. Contract coating is also recommended with these bonded coatings for a perfect and cost-effective application.

Environmentally Sound MoS2 Bonded Coating System

GLEIT-μ® GL 200 is a water-based gray-black bonded coating which is based on a selected, coordinated solid lubricant combination and an organic binder. The predominant solid lubricant component is molybdenum sulphide.

GLEIT-μ® GL 200 results in a dry, well-adhering, gray-black bonded coating film after application and evaporation of the water content. GLEIT-μ® GL 200 can be used as the sole lubricant, but due to its good oil resistance it is also ideal as a support for oil or grease lubrication.

Areas of application

Dry bonded coating:
For applications that require the absence of oil and grease, that require an optimal running-in process due to the later operating stress or that require a dry, highly pressure-resistant lubricant film to be installed.
