AD-HD5000 is a thermally cured, PTFE/MoS2 based solid film lubricant with a high molecular weight
phenolic binder system. This coating enhances the torque/tension relationship in fasteners applications,
which allows for a tighter clamp loads and less variability. AD-HD5000 is purchased by a wide variety of
markets, ranging from Automotive to Medical.
