We are committed to meeting your spec.
Additional coatings that would increase the product life of the
hardware can be easily provided. Such coatings include but are not
limited to:
-
Fluoropolymer Coatings- resin/lubricant
blends that offer excellent corrosion protection
-
Xylan® Coatings- a fluoropolymer that
can extend component life
-
Phosphate Coatings- ferrous metal
coating for anti galling and minor corrosion resistance
The product of thirty years’ expertise
in industrial coating, FluoroKote #1® fluoropolymer coating far
outperforms standard products in fastener protection. This means a
lower coefficient of friction for quick, easy application, and
reliable removal with ordinary wrenches even under extreme exposure
to salt water or corrosive chemicals. A unique three-step coating
process insures both consistent coating and excellent adhesion, even
on the difficult-to-coat inside of threaded parts. FluoroKote #1®
offers all this at costs that are comparable or less than standard
fluoropolymer coatings.
The unique benefits of FluoroKote #1® make it valuable in many types
of fastener applications:
-
The most popular application is on B7
studs and 2H nuts, used at chemical plants, refineries and offshore
platforms. The coating’s chemical resistance and easy on/easy off
characteristics are perfect for these environments
-
Water utilities take advantage of
FluoroKote #1®’s superior corrosion resistance by coating T-head
bolts for underground service
-
Stainless steel fasteners, used in many
different industries, are coated for lubricity and anti-galling
