The truck cranes telescopic booms exposed to heavy loads from the transported cargoes, wind, and dynamic effort. That is exactly why superstrong constructive materials are use to manufacture them.

In order to make the load-lifting equipment as efficient and workable as possible, the manufacturers search for the ways of additional treatment of the most loaded areas of the booms, and the Modengy engineers are ready to offer them their help.

MODENGY anti-friction solid-film coatings (ASCs) based on molybdenum disulfide are perfectly suitable to protect the telescopic booms against pre-mature wear.

The anti-friction solid-film coatings operate on the unique solid lubrication technology, and that’s why they form a dry, strong, and wear-resistant composite layer. It is characterized by:

  • Excellent anti-scuffing properties
  • High load-carrying capacity
  • Efficiency in dusty environments
  • Low friction coefficient (up to 0.03 acc. to ASTM D2714)
  • Workability within a wide temperature range ( -200 °С to +315 °С)
  • High anti-corrosion properties (160 hours on salt mist acc. to ISO R 1456)

The Modengy engineers provide the enterprises with not only the coatings themselves but also the services on their applying on site. The equipment treatment process includes an obligatory preliminary surface preparation. The solid lubricating compounds are applied with professional tools following all the rules and instructions.

As a result of a single treatment, the stick-slip motion issue at booms telescoping is solved, operation smoothness is achieved, friction losses are reduced down to 4 times.

The crane booms covered with this coating need no additional maintenance and lubrication.
