Dag® 213
Multi-purpose solvent base graphite lubricant and resistive coating
® ®
DESCRIPTION Dag 213 is designed to provide controlled electrical resistance properties. Dag 213 is a dispersion of
finely divided graphite pigment in an epoxy resin solution. When properly cured, it has excellent
®
adhesion to epoxy circuit boards, bushings, plastics and ceramics. Dag 213 also has excellent wearing
properties. It provides chemical resistance to oils and many solvents, but not to enamel strippers.
®
Dag 213 as a lubricant coating provides clean, dry, long-wearing, and superior maintenance-free
®
lubrication for a wide range of light to medium load applications. A thin film of Dag 213 keeps wear
uniform and reduces friction on mating metal parts without requiring increased manufacturing
tolerances. Components are protected from metal-to-metal contact even in applications approaching
boundary lubrication, reducing the risk of damage due to partial or complete seizure. Formulated from
®
processed micro-graphite and epoxy resin, Dag 213 forms tightly adherent coatings on many types of
®
substrates. In addition to high lubricity, Dag 213 coatings exhibit extremely good wear resistance to
oils and solvents (except enamel strippers).
