Product Specifications

Product Information

Force 842 deposits a thin, quick-drying dry film containing molybdenum disulfide. The dry film is designed to reduce surface-to-surface friction while resisting dust and dirt. The product is intended for extreme-condition applications involving high temperature and pressure, as well as assembly and break-in lubrication.

The 02516 package contains 11 wt oz (312 g / 468 mL) in an aerosol container. This product is shipped via ground transportation.

Directions

1. Clean the surface and remove dirt, grease and other contaminants before application.
2. Shake the aerosol thoroughly before use.
3. Apply a light, even coating to the surface requiring dry-film lubrication.
4. Allow the coating to dry before placing the component into service.
5. For assembly or break-in applications, follow the applicable equipment or component manufacturer's maintenance instructions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is LPS Force 842 used for?

LPS Force 842 is a dry moly lubricant designed for extreme-temperature and high-pressure applications. Manufacturer-listed applications include aircraft landing gear, brake adjustment screws, forklift channels, oven chains and cables, fire doors and overhead crane rails.

What makes Force 842 different from a conventional lubricant?

Force 842 deposits a quick-drying, thin dry film rather than leaving a conventional wet oil film. The lubricant is fortified with molybdenum disulfide and is designed to resist dust and dirt while reducing surface-to-surface friction.

How hot can LPS Force 842 get?

The manufacturer specifies Force 842 for temperatures up to 842°F (450°C).

What pressure can Force 842 withstand?

The manufacturer states that Force 842 works under pressures up to 100,000 psi (6,890 bar).

Does LPS Force 842 contain molybdenum disulfide?

Yes. Force 842 is fortified with molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂), which provides the dry lubricating film used for high-temperature and high-pressure applications.

Is Force 842 suitable for aircraft applications?

The manufacturer specifically lists aircraft landing gear as an application. Always verify the applicable aircraft, component or maintenance manual before using any lubricant on an aircraft component.

Is LPS Force 842 a wet or dry lubricant?

Force 842 is a dry film lubricant. It is formulated to provide a quick-drying, thin film containing molybdenum disulfide rather than a conventional wet lubricant coating.

Does Force 842 contain silicone?

No. Manufacturer information states that Force 842 does not contain silicone.
