BS EN 3021:2017

What is BS EN 3021 - Molybdenum disulphide dry film lubricants graphite and halogen-free about?

BS EN 3021 specifies the qualification and test requirements for graphite and halogen free molybdenum disulphide dry film lubricant.

All testing defined in BS EN 3021 has to be certified by the manufacturer of the lubricant. In order to achieve uniform coatings with defined thickness and best adhesion properties, spray application in combination with heat curing is recommended.

Note: Test requirements and testing of fretting, corrosion, wear and friction properties of relevant lubricants are not part of this standard. Refer to relevant standards in normative references.

Who is BS EN 3021 - Molybdenum disulphide dry film lubricants graphite and halogen-free for?

BS EN 3021 on molybdenum disulphide dry film lubricants graphite and halogen-free is useful for:

• Aerospace and defence industry
• Manufacturers of aerospace equipments and components
• Manufacturers and suppliers of molybdenum disulphide dry film lubricant
• Aeronautical engineers

Why should you use BS EN 3021 - Molybdenum disulphide dry film lubricants graphite and halogen-free ?

When it comes to the manufacturing and use of aerospace components, reliability and consistent performance are crucial.

The requirements of this specification concern graphite and halogen free molybdenum disulphide dry film lubricants for fastener and other parts subjected to sliding and wear. Graphite and halogenated substances may have corrosive effects on the substrate.

BS EN 3021 provides technical specifications on general requirements, environmental exposure testing for dried films, exposure to system fluids and corrosion generating environment testing to achieve corrosion resistance.

Adherence to BS EN 3021 allows you to ensure durability and high quality of fasteners and other parts.
