Product details


Product: precote 87

High-Strength and Heat-Resistant Thread Precoating

Description
precote 87 red-brown is a varnish-like precoating system on base of microencapsulated acrylates for sealing and locking of threaded parts with increased resistance against rinse water while storage and handling prior assembly The dried film is tack-free, solvent free and physiologically harmless. Its characteristics as a locking and sealing element become effective only when the capsules are ruptured by shear and/or pressure stress and the adhesive is allowed to cure.

Application
On high-tensile threaded combinations which require a locking and sealing effect even at high temperatures and at required higher installation torques. The product can be applied on screws, studs and non standardized parts as well as on thread plugs and pipe threads. precote 87 red-brown is also designed for applications on female threads Due to the high strength only a more difficult disassembly of the polymerised connection is possible. The required strength acc. DIN 267 part 27 is achieved within 6 hours at room temperature. No uncontrolled post curing occurs even after repeated temperature exposure.

Properties
- Forms a dry and tack-free film.
- Unlosable part of the thread.
- Physiologically harmless as coating and as assembly.
- Threaded parts can be preapplied long time before assembly (oT coating machine).
- Seals against pressure up to 400 bar (5760 psi).
- Retains torque performance even at +170°C.
- Prevents corrosion in the threaded connection.
- Fast curing - no post curing even after repeated temperature exposure.
- Thread friction must be considered on assembly.
- Good chemical resistance (meets the relevant automotive specifications).
- Complies with DIN 267, part 27.

Guarantee:
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 knowledge and influence 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. In any event any justified warranty claims shall be limited to the delivery of replacement goods which are free from defect or, in the event that such subsequent improvement fails, to reimbursement of the purchase price. Any and all further claims, in particular but without limitation any liability for consequential damage, shall be excluded.
