MOLYKOTE D-6600 Anti-Friction Coating: A new and innovative coating for service life dry lubrication of engine starter plungers
DuPont Molykote April 2020
Application engine starter plungers
Service life of engine starter plungers can be simulated on a SRV test machine with methodology defined and agreed with a major starter Tier 1 supplier
