Drislide Multi-Purpose Lubricants are a very thin liquid, made up of mostly mineral spirits as the carrier for molybdenum Disulfide (Moly). 

The Moly settles at the bottom of the container and needs agitated or shaken up before you apply the Drislide. Once the moly is agitated and now suspended in the mineral spirits, the mineral spirits carry the moly across the application (metal surface). The mineral spirits will completely evaporate in 10-15 minutes, leaving behind a nice thin layer of dry moly film that has bonded to the metal surface and will stay there to lubricate longer then other lubricants. And the best part about the Drislide is that it will not collect dust, dirt or other airborne particles, and it repels moisture. 

Once applied and the mineral spirits evaporate, the moly film withstands 100,000 psi and has a temperature range of -20°F up to 1000°F.

Once the needle applicator has been applied to the top of the 4oz spout-top bottle, you will be able to apply just a drip of Drislide to the smallest of applications. The needle applicator also comes in very handy for lubricant cables on motorcycles, bicycles, ATV's and any other equipment that has cables, whether in a cable sleeve or exposed. 

The way the needle is designed (very thin), you are able to place the tip of the needle in the opening of the cable sleeve. Then you squeeze the bottle just enough, to allow the Drislide to work its way down the inside of the cable sleeve by way of gravity. Lubricating the cable to the point of preventing freeze-up or snapping, rust & corrosion. Extending the life of the cable.

We were also told that because of the needle applicator, it saves a half an hour down-time for motorcycle maintenance shops, all across the country.

The Drislide Needle Applicator is very Fragile. Made of a very thin steel stem, crimped to a base or hub, to self-thread the needle applicator onto the top of our 4oz plastic spout top bottles. Damaging these needles may include denting, bending and breaking. (Replacement needles available on website).

Needle may also clog. This happens when the rubber tip is left off the top of the needle too long. A rubber tip is provided with every needle and should be placed back on the tip of the needle when not in use. If the rubber tip is left off the top of the needle too long, air gets down in the needle, drying up the moly inside the needle and causing a clog.

Suggestions on unclogging the needle: allow to soak overnight in mineral spirits, rubbing alcohol, or possibly a degreaser parts cleaner. Not sure if soapy water will help. After an overnight soaking, if available, blow air through the needle to clear. The use of a can of office air-duster may help. We've been told that some have had success threading a thin string through the needle like a guitar string to push through and break up the clog.

Drislide Multi-Purpose Lubricants are a very thin liquid, made up of mostly mineral spirits as the carrier for molybdenum Disulfide (Moly).

The Moly settles at the bottom of the container and needs agitated or shaken up before you apply the Drislide. Once the moly is agitated or shaken up, there is a little pressure build-up in the container. When opening the 4oz plastic spout-top bottle, you must be careful and open slowly to prevent the flip top from popping open and spitting Drislide all over.
