FASTENINGS & ADHESIVES
FEATURE
ssembly failure with ead locking solutions
the fastener’s service life can be extended. Overall, pre-applied thread lock can be more
cost-efficient as it reduces assembly time, minimises the need for manual application and lowers the risk of rework caused by inconsistent installation or premature assembly failure.
conSiderationS when chooSing a thread locking Solution It’s important to note that not all pre-applied thread locking solutions work the same way. There are many different kinds of thread lock available on the market, so choosing the right one depends on the needs of the application. In most cases, choosing thread lock is
based on three main factors: the operating temperature, the level of locking strength required and whether the assembly will need to be disassembled for maintenance or repair. For assemblies operating below 75˚C that
require low to medium locking strength and regular disassembly, AccuLock is the ideal solution. This methacrylic resin patch is reusable for up to five installations, requiring
no curing time and is ideal for general-purpose production and serviceable assemblies. Where a stronger locking performance is
needed, particularly in applications exposed to vibration or high loads, Anu-Lok 180 provides a reliable alternative. This reusable mechanical patch can operate at temperatures up to 120˚C, and is widely suited to automotive, industrial and vibration-prone applications. Precote 80 is available for applications
requiring maximum locking strength. Designed for temperatures up to 170˚C, this pre-applied thread lock creates a permanent bond and is intended for single-use applications where disassembly is not expected. We offer pre- applied thread lock across our entire range, which means it can be specified for any fastener, including bespoke components, offering greater flexibility to specify pre- applied thread lock for any application.
Selecting the right Solution Pre-applied thread lock systems provide a practical and efficient solution to minimising
fastening loosening. The availability of different formulations allows assemblies to be tailored to specific operating conditions, whether the requirement is reusability, vibration resistance, high-temperature performance, or permanent locking strength.
