FEATURE

CHARACTERISTICS

Micro-seal 204

Micro-seal204 is a water-based environmentally friendly PTFE pre-applied sealant. Micro-seal204 has excellent

(Green)

performance qualities providing instant sealing upon installation. Micro-seal204 can be applied to ferrous and non-ferrous metallic thread forms and has an operating temperature range of -50°C to +150°C.Components can be re-adjusted after installation, whilst maintaining their sealing ability. Microseal®204 inhibits corrosion of mating parts due to its sealing action. Disassembly is therefore improved compared to other conventional methods.

Precote ® 4

Precote®4 is a film-forming dispersion with non-reactive mineral solids for coating threaded parts. It is a non-

(White)

toxic and safe precoating for threaded parts like screws, studs, plugs and pipe threads, sealing against gases and liquids. Precote®4 has a more elastic structure with better recovery properties

Precote ® 5

Precote®5 is a film-forming dispersion with non-reactive mineral solids for coating threaded parts. It is a non-

(White)

The Micro Encapsulated Adhesive Principle

Inlex Locking Ltd® is the European market leader for pre-applied locking and sealing solutions for threaded components. We are constantly working closely with our material suppliers to develop new products and processes, which offer innovative jointing solutions to meet ever changing customer requirements.

Our pre-applied adhesive products contain micro-encapsulated components of the adhesive material, which are coated onto the screw threads, forming a brightly coloured identifiable, dry to touch, ready to use, high performance adhesive coating.

The thread coated with the pre-applied adhesive develops the desired locking and sealing properties, when compression or shear stress ruptures the micro-capsules upon assembly of the screw into the corresponding mating component. The adhesive components are released and within a short time, the compound with the threads becoming locked,bonded together and forming a reliable seal.

A.The Pre-applied process consists of applying the micro-encapsulated adhesive onto a defined area of the male thread surface.

The Inlex Locking Ltd®pre-applied adhesive products are approved to a wide range of industry standards including: DIN 267 Part: 27IFI 125/525 BS 7795 : 1995 Ford (WX200 & WX201) GM 6175M Perkins Engines Jaguar/LandRover STJLR.60.5020.

LOCKING

Nylon Locking Patch Advantages Blue or Red with other bespoke colours to order High temperature Orange patches with 260°C capability are available Re-useable Anti-vibrational Variable patch length and position Eliminates secondary locking features such as nuts, washers, etc.

Automatically locks in any position Plate and Patch service available Resistant to chemicals including alcohol, petroleum, oil, kerosene, diesel fuel and hydraulic fluids

At Inlex we offer Europe’s widest range of pre-applied locking and sealing solutions, eliminating the need for secondary locking devices, hand-applied liquid adhesives, or sealing tapes.

The Inlex Nylon anti-vibration locking patch, when applied is permanently fused onto the screw thread of the parent component, and increases the prevailing removal torque, allowing the screw to be locked in any position upon assembly.

Inlex 180 Nylon anti-vibration locking patch Inlex180 anti-vibration locking patch, is a coloured nylon 11 feature permanently fused to the screw thread. This process provides excellent vibration resistance and torque performance for all applications requiring controlled loading and re-usability.

Inlex nylon anti-vibration locking patch, is effective, whether or not the fastener is fully seated, making it ideal for applications where subsequent adjustment is required.

Inlex 360 Nylon anti-vibration locking patch

The Inlex Principle

Inlex 360 nylon anti-vibration locking patch, gives full circumference coverage (completely around the thread) and is suitable for applications requiring a fully re-usable high pressure seal against liquid or gas.

(1) Nylon fills axial tolerances

(2) Metal to metal contact

A. The Inlex process consists of fusing the Nylon 11 material onto a defined area of the male thread surface.

B. Upon installation into the female threaded component, the nylon material is compressed filling the axial tolerances between the threads (1).

C. The Inlex process creates a strong metal-to-metal radial loading on the flanks of the mating thread forms (2), which provides the locking action.

Industry Approvals Our Inlex Nylon anti-vibrational locking patch products are approved to a wide range of industry standards including:DIN 267 part 28 BS 7715:1994 IFI 124 & 524 General Motors GM6189P Ford WA970 Jaguar/LandRover.STJLR.60.5020.A970 and many more.. .

Inlex can be applied to most popular plated finishes, as well as polymer and organic coatings.

Thread Preparation

Parts manufactured from non-ferrous material should be supplied free from any surface contaminants. Variations in material structure can effect heating capability of the part during processing, which may result in torque variation.

To obtain optimum patch performance both male and female threads should be in accordance with class 6g/6H (metric) or class 2 a/b (unified). High installation speeds can create galling of the threads affecting product performance.

The main criteria is that the variables outlined above are acceptably controlled. The specifications for the manufacture and mechanical performance of fasteners will usually control the fastener variability satisfactorily, e.g.ISO 68, ISO 724, ISO 898, ISO 965, ISO 6157 and the coating lubricity can be controlled by process control and testing according to test requirements such as BS 7371 Pt. 2 or ISO 16047.

Changes in friction have a large effect on clamping force To monitor coating lubrication performance, it is customary and usually considered only necessary to consider µtot. Sophisticated equipment is required to measure thread or bearing torque requirements separately which is useful to assess the effects of varying bearing surface or thread contact materials. Anochrome Group has purchased this type

This can be expressed in two ways, the Coefficient of Friction µ and the Torque Coefficient (K factor). The figures are not the same and it is important that they are not confused with each other. The coefficient of friction takes into account many more parameters to give a more accurate result.

This can be used as a guide to compute tightening torques, but it should be considered that variations may occur. Changes to any of the parameters, or contamination of contacting surfaces, can significantly alter characteristics.

In some instances, e.g. to dampen noise when inserting certain types of thread locking screw, the wax can be applied only to a portion of the thread of a fastener. (See pages Thread waxes).

Interest is being shown in the torque tension performance of fasteners when they are re-used and our equipment has been used to investigate

Corrosion Resistance The oils applied, though they have a disadvantage of being slightly wet, have the attraction that their mobility can enhance the corrosion resistance, particularly when components are damaged in assembly.

This is not usually the case with waxes because as they are dry films, they can sometimes suffer damage, although Anochrome Group does not use any standard materials that will detract from the corrosion resistance of the original coating.
