It can withstand high temperatures, corrosive media, and dry atmospheres, all while maintaining a low coefficient of friction and remaining dimensionally and thermally stable. But graphite as a lubricating material is typically not the first use of this wonder material that comes to mind. Most people, if thinking of graphite in an industrial setting,...
