Why is “Moly” such an outstanding lubricant?

0

“Moly” has a low coefficient of friction, has an extraordinary affinity to stick to metal especially if rubbed in; has a lubricity factor 3 to 4 times that of oil; with a melting point of 1500F; will withstand pressures up to 500,000 lbs. per square inch. Through heat pressure a chemical reaction will form a low friction film on the bearing metal keeping the metal surfaces from actually touching. This plating reduces the friction in an engine up to 60%.
