Product Uses
  • NA-LUBE® FM-1187 is a molybdenum-based friction modifier that imparts antifriction and antiwear properties to lubricants and greases.
  • NA-LUBE® FM-1187 is a phosphorus-free and sulfur-free additive that is based on well-selected organic raw materials.
  • When manufacturing engine oils, it is recommended to first blend the selected base oils with the additives, such as pour point depressants, viscosity improvers, and engine oil additive packages at 55°C to 70°C.
  • NA-LUBE® FM-1187 should then be added with agitation until completely dissolved.
