# Extrusion die lubrication

Reduces friction and wear on dies used to mold materials in extrusion processes.

Family: Lubrication applications

## Processes
- Metal extrusion
- Die lubrication

## Challenges
- Sticking to the die
- Accelerated wear
- Surface defects

## Advantages
- Lubricating dry film
- Better release
- Temperature stability

## Limitations
- Not a hydrodynamic oil lubricant
- May stain light-colored surfaces
- Performance depends on surface preparation and reapplication
