Lubricants commonly referred to as “multipurpose” usually fulfill applications with overlapping performance requirements. Not to be interpreted as low-quality or unspecialized, multipurpose lubricants are suitable for more than one application given their specific properties and capabilities – such as a heavyweight hydraulic oil that also may be appropriate as a lightweight gearbox oil.
MOLYKOTE® offers several multipurpose lubricant solutions. In addition, many MOLYKOTE® Specialty Lubricants have penetrating features to help the lubrication migrate into difficult-to-reach lubrication zones, which helps prevent rust and seizure and eases disassembly.
