A solid lubricant composition comprising a wax carrier and agglomerates of PTFE micropowder dispersed throughout the wax carrier is disclosed. In some embodiments, the solid lubricant composition is applied to an interior surface of a cylindrical plain bearing. In other embodiments, a polymer sliding layer having a plurality of indentations formed therein is applied to the interior surface of a metal shell, and the solid lubricant composition described herein is disposed in the indentations, to thereby form a cylindrical plain bearing having a sliding layer of both the polymer material and the solid lubricant composition.

A method for producing a matrix-containing dry film on a threaded tubular component for drilling or working hydrocarbon wells, by applying a mixture containing a dispersion or an aqueous emulsion of an acrylic copolymer with a solution of an alkaline polysilicate in a liquid state onto a threaded end of the threaded tubular component by spraying at a temperature of from 20 C. to 40 C. thereby obtaining a threaded end coated with a film; drying the threaded end coated with the film; and densifying the film.

This invention provides a threaded connection for pipe or tube that has a non-sticky surface and that suppresses the occurrence of rust and exhibits excellent galling resistance and airtightness even in an extremely low temperature environment without using compound grease, a method of producing the same, and a composition for forming a solid lubricating coating on the threaded connection. A solid lubricating coating (24) formed from a composition containing a binder, a fluorine addition agent, a solid lubricant and a rust proof addition agent is coated as a topmost surface treatment coating on a contact surface of at least one of a pin and a box. Even when exposed to an extremely low temperature environment, the solid lubricating coating (24) can maintain adhesiveness and exhibit a lubricating function, can suppress the occurrence of galling of a threaded connection, and can also secure airtightness after fastening.
