Have you experienced problems in lubricating machines?
MOWAX (molybdenum wax) is a solid lubricant produced by using a solid lubricant "molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)" that has excellent antiseizing capability as the base compound. Since the lubricant is solidified using a lubrication wax, the product forms a dry lubrication film, which is different from grease. The wax can be applied very easily by simply building it into a machine. Since the product forms a dry film, it is most suitable for sections where oil and grease cannot be applied and sections that are sensitive to fluff. Through its self lubricant coating capability, a lubricant film is formed immediately on the peeled surface of base material, achieving longer lubrication cycle and simplification of lubrication on difficult areas.

Driving gear  
Photo Transfers a film to the face of the tooth by co-rotating MOWAX in gear shape by pressing it on the existing gear.
Applied for patent
Molybdenum disulfide has a heat resistance of 350℃ or higher, but the product is softened under the environment of 70℃ or higher due to the melting point of the lubricant wax. Note that the product may not be able to maintain its shape.
