Problem Faced
Loosening of threaded fasteners, due to vibrations, impacts & other operating conditions
Solutions & Classification
Thread lockers are applied on the nuts, fastners and studs of any machinery to prevent them loosening due to vibration, impact etc. Different grades of thread lockers are used depending upon the strength required and post or pre assembly requirement
Thread Sealer
Problem Faced
Leakage from fluid piping systems caused by vibrations, impact and other operating conditions
Solutions & Classification
Thread sealant are applied on threads of fluid carrying systems to prevent leakage of the fluid due to vibrations, impact and other operating conditions. Different grade of thread sealant are available depending upon the applications specific gravity pressure viscosity and temperature.
Problem Faced
Leakage from mating flanges, fretting corrosion between flanges loosening of bolts as gaskets relax cause because of vibration, impacts and other operating conditions, failed gaskets.
Solutions & Classification
Liquid gasketing products are applied on the flanges to prevent leakage, different grades are available depending upon application cure state, Temperature, Gap Fill, Viscosity, Cure speed.
Problem Faced
Loose bearing and shaft, that have become oval, recurring wear of co-axial assemblies, fretting corrosion, damaged parts during press-fits / shrink fits.
Solutions & Classification
Retaining compounds are used to overcome the problem of press-fits, shrink-fit and to retained the bearing for a longer time. Retaining compound are classified on the following grounds application, Specific Gravity, Breakaway, Viscosity, Cure Speed and Temperature.
