Abstract
A solid lubricant such as MoS.sub.2 is applied to certain carbon and stainless steels after surface voids have been produced in the material by one or two annealings before final cold working the material to finished size. The latter operation imbeds or includes the lubricant into the material and thereby provides a superior lubricated steel for piston rings, shaft, valve stem, spring, stranded wire, and the like applications. The technique involved may also employ corrosion inhibiting agents to increase resistance to corrosion of the steel as well as to impove its lubricity.
