precote Top 100

Coating for Adjustment of Thread Friction with Temporary Corrosion Protection

Description

precote Top 100 is a film-forming surface coating based on wax with temporary corrosion protection. It reduces underhead and thread friction during the assembly. precote Top 100 prevents stick-slip and fretting and higher clamping forces can be reached with similar tightening torques. The coating is dry and tack-free.

Application

precote Top 100 is used as a coating for all types of threaded joints. precote Top 100 can be used as a partial coating or in a dip and spin process. Depending on requirements, precote Top 100 is processed in a dilution with 1 to a maximum of 5 parts water.
The coating can be used in all kind of assembly procedures, particularly for serial production.
Areas of application are electronics, two wheel and automotive industry, household appliances, office machines, computer industry, electric motors, e-mobility, etc.

Note

Since we do not know which thread types, dimensions, materials, pairings, surface conditions, etc. prevail, it is absolutely necessary to carry out appropriate control tests before a general application in order to convince yourself of the desired function under the respective practical conditions before series use. Our warranty extends to the perfect quality of precote® deliveries. Since both the precote® processing by the coating partner and the application of precote®-coated parts are beyond our control, we cannot assume any warranty for the quality of precote®-coated parts and the composites produced with them. We only accept liability for the suitability of our products for certain applications and for certain properties of the products if these have been agreed in writing in individual cases. In any case of justified warranty claims, these are limited to the delivery of defect-free replacement goods or, if this rectification should fail, to the reimbursement of the purchase price. All further claims, in particular liability for consequential damages, are generally excluded.
