SSF #8 M is a unique synthetic semi-fluid lubricant containing a metallic solid additive, Molybdenum Disulfide. The 0.02 micron molybdenum disulfide particles in SSF #8 M will plate onto all surfaces and embed themselves to provide an extremely low coefficient of friction and high lubricity.
SSF #8 M will not channel as greases normally do, and yet will retain itself as greases do and oils will not. It possesses extreme pressure resistance of gear lubrication, as well as the softness for use in bearings, on slides, cams, open gears, etc. requiring only an extremely thin film to adequately lubricate these parts and keep the two metal surfaces separated. Because of the foregoing, SSF #8 M has unlimited applications for use in leaky gearboxes where the speeds are not too great, on slides, open gears, cams, etc.
