Problem:
Gears, bearings and slides used in a nuclear reactor needed a lubricant that could withstand 1000°F temperatures in the reactor for extended periods of time, and would not need constant replacing or attention.

Solution:
HI-T-LUBE was permanently electrolytically bonded to the parent alloy. Unlike graphite or molybdenum disulfide, it does not leach out or accumulate in unloaded areas. Dimensional tolerances are strictly controlled, thus maintaining critical fit and clearance on all the parts.
