OVERVIEW

Industrial-Grade Dry Lubrication with PTFE Technology

The Walter SLIDE™ Dry Film Lubricant is a highly engineered maintenance solution designed to provide superior lubrication in environments where wet oils and greases are impractical. Formulated with a high concentration of PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), commonly known as Teflon, this product creates a microscopic, slick barrier on treated surfaces. Unlike traditional petroleum-based lubricants that remain wet and tacky, SLIDE dries almost instantly upon application, leaving behind a durable film that significantly reduces the coefficient of friction between moving parts.

This dry-film characteristic makes SLIDE an indispensable tool in industries plagued by airborne particulates, such as woodworking, paper manufacturing, textiles, and mining. In these settings, wet lubricants act as magnets for dust, sawdust, and grit, eventually forming an abrasive paste that can damage machinery and shorten component lifespans. Walter SLIDE eliminates this issue entirely by providing a smooth, non-stick surface that repels contaminants. It is chemically inert and offers excellent temperature stability, ensuring consistent performance even under varying thermal conditions.

Beyond simple lubrication, SLIDE serves as an exceptional mold release agent for the plastics and rubber industries. Its silicone-free formulation ensures that it will not interfere with post-molding operations such as painting, bonding, or finishing, making it safe for use in automotive and aerospace manufacturing facilities. The aerosol delivery system, equipped with a precision nozzle, allows for easy application on chains, gears, hinges, drawer slides, and intricate mechanisms where precise coverage is required. By reducing friction and wear without the mess of oil, Walter SLIDE extends the maintenance intervals of critical equipment and improves overall operational efficiency.

Key Technical Benefits:

  • Contaminant Repellent: Will not attract dust, lint, or dirt, keeping mechanisms clean.
  • Chemical Resistance: PTFE base provides a barrier against mild acids and alkalis.
  • Surface Protection: Helps prevent corrosion on metal parts during storage or operation.
  • Versatility: Effective on metal, plastic, wood, glass, and rubber surfaces.

FAQ

The primary active ingredient is PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), commonly known as Teflon, which provides exceptional dry lubrication.

No, Walter SLIDE is designed to dry rapidly upon application, leaving a non-oily, dry film that does not attract dust or dirt.

Yes, it is a silicone-free formulation, making it safe for use in environments where painting or finishing occurs, as it will not cause fisheye defects.

Absolutely. It is excellent for woodworking equipment like table saws and planers because it reduces friction without staining the wood or collecting sawdust.

Walter SLIDE is effective within a temperature range of approximately -10°C to 250°C, making it suitable for many industrial heat environments.

The solvent carrier evaporates very quickly, typically allowing the film to dry within seconds of application.

Yes, it is an effective mold release for plastics and rubbers, particularly where a dry, non-transferring release agent is required.

Yes, the dry PTFE film provides a barrier against moisture and oxidation, offering light corrosion protection for stored tools and parts.
