Threadlocker is one of the excellent products of Invertech Canada Inc. Thread-lockers keep fasteners from loosening due to vibration. The automotive industry began using fasteners with pre-applied anaerobic adhesive for thread-locking. The first such application was to lock and seal a screw in a carburetor. Today, every industry is using threadlocker for various purposes.
Threadlocker Prevent and Protects
Threadlocker adhesives not only prevent motion and loosening, but they also protect the equipment from gathering moisture or being corroded by gasses and fluids. It is overly simple to say threadlocker adhesives are glue. These substances mitigate risks that are often the cause of fasteners failing: tension relaxation and loosening. Changes in temperatures in the surrounding areas permit fasteners to expand and adjust depending on the materials used. When the equipment does this, it’s possible for the connection to become loose.
Threadlocker should be applied only where the nut and bolt will meet. The adhesive between the threads will cure soon after. The hint is to use the threadlocker onto the bolt thread. For blind-hole assemblies such as studs, threadlockers should be used to the bolt and onto the threads within the blind hole. Air pressure may force the liquid to escape as the bolt is torqued down, and may result in an incomplete cure and possible assembly failure.
Anaerobic adhesives fill the gaps between metal components in an assembly (for example, a nut and bolt assembly). It is because of this property that they are used to augment the seal or hold components of a mechanical assembly together – all these applications usually require high shear strength. The word anaerobic means without air. These adhesives cure on the removal of air or oxygen. The other pre-condition for anaerobic adhesives to cure is that they need to be in contact with a metal. Hence, anaerobic adhesives remain in liquid form until they are separated from oxygen and in connection with metals like iron, copper, and others.
