Thread Lock Adhesive Durable Bonds For Long-Lasting Mechanical Fasteners
Tuesday, January 17th, 2012Thread Lock Adhesive formulations supplant mechanical fasteners for many applications, and the sealants fill gaps in applications using traditional mechanical fasteners. Since many businesses, industries and product assembly companies require different methods of fastening, thread locking sealants are an ideal solution. Mechanical locking devices are used in product fastening applications throughout the world; these devices and tools include screws, motor mounts, nuts, bolts, pipe connectors, setscrews, and many other products.
Many traditional mechanical fasteners fail to prevent fluid leakage, particularly in caustic environments. Moreover, mechanical fasteners cannot effectively handle loosening or corrosion that happens to most traditional forms of mechanical fastening. Hence, the need for rectifying the deficiencies of mechanical fastening is required in many market sectors. In order to fill gaps and increase grip tolerances, thread lock adhesive is a great choice for mechanical locking devices. By using our chemical formulations or using Threadlockers, substrate bonding seals all kinds of mechanical fasteners.

Thread lock adhesive is applied to the locking components so they hold and have added holding strength. Prior to fastening the assembly components, use of adhesives and sealants allows finished goods to withstand loosening caused by vibrations or impacts. The best part of thread lock adhesive products is that they provide improved grip strength for mechanical fasteners. In many cases, adhesives and sealants for mechanical fasteners may be loosened for maintenance work by simply applying added pressure. Some relatively strong thread lock formulations, like Adhesive Systems’ red and green compounds, require the application of direct heat for removal. As far as our blue thread lock compounds are concerned, they have long-lasting bonding strength once cured.
Normally, thread lock adhesive products are sold in three different chemical formulations, which are high, medium and low strength. Many thread lock sealants also overcome vibratory loosening even under thermal cycling conditions. Custom formulations may be manufactured from the engineers at Adhesive Systems.
