Graphite release coating for forging and stamping
GRAFOTERM™
GRAFOTERM™ is an ultra-thin graphite coating for mid-to-high temperature stamping, blanking, and forging. It eases release, prevents marking, and protects dies.
It belongs to the ESGRAF Lubricating Paints / Release Coatings family.
[ Where it is used ]
Typical applications for this family.
Forge lubricationGraphite release coating for hot forging that protects the die and eases part release.
Stamping die lubricationImproves the performance and lifespan of dies in cutting and stamping processes.
Hot-forming lubricationGraphite film for hot bending, cutting, and stamping.
Extrusion die lubricationReduces friction and wear on dies used to mold materials in extrusion processes.
Extrusion piston lubricationReduces friction and improves efficiency in pistons subjected to high pressures and temperatures.
Metal mold releaseGraphite coatings to facilitate demolding and reduce adhesion in forming and casting processes.
Refractory surface lubricationProtection of blocks, molds and surfaces subjected to high temperatures with a release and non-stick effect.

[ Advantages ]
- Resists thermal bounce-back, ensuring uniform application on hot surfaces
- Reduces friction and wear on dies and molds
- Eases release and prevents marking on metal parts
- Keeps lubrication stable in extreme heat
- Extends tool life
[ Problem it helps solve ]
Thermal bounce-back, die wear and marking in stamping, blanking and forging at medium-to-high temperature.
[ Application method ]
- Brush, roller, spray or as the process requires
[ Compatible surfaces ]
- Metal surfaces and industrial equipment
[ FAQ ]
View all FAQsWhen temperatures are high, dry starts occur, dust/moisture is present, or oil may evaporate. The graphite film remains as residual solid lubrication on chains, guides, shafts, and open mechanisms.
It is a dry graphited coating/lubricant: it forms an adherent film on metal and refractories for sliding, release, and protection.
ESGRAF lubricants and coatings ship from 1/4-gallon packs up to 5-gallon pails (and kg equivalents). Each product sheet lists SKUs and net/gross weights.
