Anaerobic Adhesives & Sealants
Thread Locking
- Increases profitability: lower costs, less down time.
- Reduced inventories - no need for "special fasteners"
- Reduced maintenance - parts don't vibrate loose.
- Superior reliability - assembly integrity assured.
Hernon offers a complete line of Nuts N' Bolts adhesives &
sealants. These anaerobic adhesives are designed for use with
assemblies having threaded fasteners. They are single component,
100% active liquids that are self-hardening when air is omitted
as between the mating surfaces of a nut and bolt, while remaining
a stable liquid in its container.
A wide selection of Nuts N' Bolts adhesives & sealants
are available to provide specialized performance to meet your
product specification and maintenance requirements. Adhesive
properties such as maximum gap filling, cure time, shear strength
(breakaway and prevailing torque), and viscosities can be matched
to meet your specific needs.
Nuts N' Bolts adhesives & sealants replace lockwashers
and other expensive methods to prevent vibration and loosening
of parts, thus improving machine reliability.
These adhesives also seal against leakage eliminating internal
corrosion for the life cycle of the assembly.
All fasteners have manufacturing tolerances varying by the
"class of fit" specified for the threads. Application
of "Nuts N' Bolts adhesives allow uniform distribution of
the adhesive material into the voids between thread pressure
- flanks and thread roots. The statistical variabilities of each
thread path is filled with liquid adhesive, which cures into
a tough helical path, and prevents leakage past the seal of the
polymer and prevents self loosening of the mated parts due to
transverse vibration. Before the fastener pressure flanks can
move, the cured adhesive in the thread roots must be overcome
by the magnitude of vibration. Adhesives with greater "strength"
possess greater mechanical shear strengths to resist greater
magnitudes of vibration.  |
