precote 50

High-Strength and Heat-Resistant Thread Locker for Screws ≤ M4

Description

precote 50 is a varnish-like, solvent free coating system based on microencapsulated acrylates for sealing and locking of threaded parts. The dried film is tack-free and non-sticky.
Its characteristics as a locking element become effective only when the capsules are ruptured by shear and pressure stress and the set-free components are allowed to cure.
The securing effect was confirmed by the vibration test according to Junker DIN 65151 und ISO 16130.

Application

precote 50 is a high-strength and heat-resistant thread locking coating. It can be used on all external and internal threads size up to M4.
precote 50 can be used in all kinds of assembly procedures, particularly series production. Areas of application are electronics, two wheel and automotive industry, houshold appliances, office machines, computer industry, electric motors, e-mobility, etc.

Note

As we do not know the specimen, dimensions, materials, combinations, surface conditions etc. of the threads in question, it is absolutely essential to run quality tests prior to general use to make sure about the required performance under field conditions. Our guarantee is confined to supplying precote® in proper quality. In view of the fact that processing of precote by the coating partner and the application of precote® coated parts are beyond our control we cannot guarantee for the quality of parts coated with precote® and assemblies made thereof. We accept liability for the fitness of our products for particular purposes and liability for particular qualities of our products only in the event that we have accepted such liability in writing in the individual case.
