MOLYKOTE INDUSTRIAL LUBRICANTS

The lubricating properties of molybdenum‐disulphide powder have been referred to in these columns before (see issue for April, 1950, p. 1C, and April, 1951, p. 14) and these powders have been available in lubricating form for some years in the U.S.A. under the trade name of Molykote Lubricants, made and marketed by The Alpha Corporation, Greenwich, Connecticut. Exclusive agents for the British Isles have now been appointed and these are K. S. Paul Ltd., 157 Victoria Street, London, S.W.I. At present, import licenses are required, but it is supposed that in view of the special work that these lubricants can perform, no difficulties will be experienced in this connection.
