This Dry Film Graphite Lubricant ships in a 10 oz aerosol can and is built for jobs where wet oils cause more problems than they solve. Graphite goes on, the carrier flashes off, and what's left is a dry film that cuts friction without leaving a tacky surface for grit to cling to. Mechanics, gunsmiths, and anyone maintaining locks, hinges, threads, or sliding metal parts reach for a dry lubricant when oil would attract dust and gum up the works. If you keep a shelf of oils, fluids and sealers on hand, this earns a spot next to the wet lubes for the specific jobs they can't handle.
The formula relies on graphite as the working lubricant rather than petroleum, so the finished film stays dry to the touch. That matters in dusty or dirty environments where an oil film turns into an abrasive paste over time. The aerosol delivery lets you reach pivots, latches, and threaded assemblies without disassembly, then evaporates the carrier to leave graphite bonded to the metal. It won't run, drip, or stain the way liquid oils can, and it holds up under repeated cycling on locks and moving hardware. Per manufacturer specifications, the can carries 10 wt. oz of product. For applications that call for a heavier moly film instead, TSA also stocks a dry moly lubricant and a separate dry graphite lube.
Reach for this when you need lubrication that won't collect debris: door and ignition locks, garage and gate hardware, drawer slides, threaded fasteners, and the kind of sliding metal contact found around shop equipment. Spray a light coat, let the carrier flash off, and cycle the part. Because the film is dry, it's a sensible pick anywhere a wet oil would migrate onto surfaces you'd rather keep clean. Pair it with the right product for each job from our full lineup of greases and lubricants, and you'll have the wet and dry options covered for general maintenance work.
A dry film lubricant leaves a graphite layer that lubricates without staying wet. That makes it useful on locks, hinges, threads, drawer slides, and any metal-to-metal contact in dusty or dirty environments where oil would attract grit and form an abrasive paste.
Oil stays liquid and clings to surfaces, which lubricates well but collects dust and dirt over time. Graphite dry lube flashes off its carrier and leaves a dry film that won't run, drip, or attract debris. Use oil for sealed assemblies and dry lube for exposed hardware.
This aerosol holds 10 weight ounces of dry film graphite lubricant per manufacturer specifications. The total shipping weight of the filled can is about 11 ounces.
Shake the can, spray a light, even coat on clean metal, and let the carrier evaporate for a few seconds. Cycle or move the part to work the graphite into the contact surfaces. A second light coat helps on heavily worked hardware. Avoid over-applying since a thin film performs best.
