Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 49 words
A self-lubricating solid composition for surface contact with a relatively hard, smooth surface where loading pressure is at about 30.5 psi and consisting on a volume basis of: 11.3 percent glass, 3.3 percent lead and 85.4 percent polytetrafluoroethylene whereby the glass to lead volume ratio is 3.4 : 1.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 49 words
A self-lubricating solid composition for surface contact with a relatively hard, smooth surface where loading pressure is at about 30.5 psi and consisting on a volume basis of 22.6 percent glass, 3.3 percent lead and 74.1 percent polytetrafluoroethylene whereby the glass to lead volume ratio is 6.8 : 1.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 64 words
A method for lubricating a hard smooth surface comprising contacting said surface with a self-lubricating solid composition consisting on a volume basis of: 16.9 percent glass, 3.3 percent lead and 79.8 percent polytetrafluoroethylene whereby the glass to lead volume ratio is 5:1, the contact being such as to provide relative movement between said surface and said composition at loading pressure of about 30.5 psi.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 64 words
A method for lubricating a hard smooth surface comprising contacting said surface with a self-lubricating solid composition consisting on a volume basis of: 11.3 percent glass, 3.3 percent lead and 85.4 percent polytetrafluoroethylene whereby the glass to lead volume ratio is 3.4:1, the contact being such as to provide relative movement between said surface and said composition at loading pressure of about 30.5 psi.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 64 words
A method for lubricating a hard smooth surface comprising contacting said surface with a self-lubricating solid composition consisting on a volume basis of: 22.6 percent glass, 3.3 percent lead and 74.1 percent polytetrafluoroethylene whereby the glass to lead volume ratio is 6.8:1, the contact being such as to provide relative movement between said surface and said composition at loading pressure of about 30.5 psi.
