Dicronite® Dry Lubricant Coating for Food Processing Equipment
Reduce friction. Support consistent equipment operation.
Friction and wear in moving components can interrupt production and create maintenance challenges.
Dicronite® Southwest provides tungsten disulfide (WS₂) dry lubricant coating services for machinery components. Discuss your food processing or packaging equipment application with our team to evaluate coating suitability and processing requirements.
Food processing & packaging
Dry Lubrication for Production Machinery
Start with the component challenge: sticking, wear, inconsistent movement, or recurring maintenance.
Provide your drawings, operating conditions, and existing lubrication methods so our team can evaluate whether Dicronite® is appropriate for the application.

Seaming & Forming Equipment
Evaluate coating requirements for contacting surfaces subject to repeated mechanical movement.
Packaging Machinery
Discuss friction-related movement issues in equipment used to package food products.
Production Equipment Components
Share the specific part, mating surfaces, and operating conditions to help define the scope of an application review.
Operating environment
Define the Operating Environment
Food processing equipment requires careful attention to how and where each component operates. When requesting a review, identify:
- Whether the coated surface could contact food
- Cleaning chemicals and washdown conditions
- Operating temperatures, loads, and speeds
- Component material and surface finish
- Existing lubrication and maintenance procedures
- Required compliance documentation
Any food-contact suitability must be established for the specific intended use.
Selective Coating & Custom Masking
Identify the surfaces requiring treatment and any areas that must remain uncoated. Ask about custom masking and tooling support for project-specific processing requirements.
