Organic
Organic coatings can be supplied, which consist of a coloured pigment
bonded with a heat curing polymer. PTFE or molybdenum disulphide
can also be included to give controlled lubricity.
These coatings give:
• A coloured coating
• An insulated coating
• Good corrosion resistance
• In some cases high temperature resistance
• Controlled lubricity, if required
• High wear resistance
• No risk of hydrogen embrittlement
They can be applied by dipping and centrifuging off excess material, by spraying or dip coating.
Typical applications are:
Machine screws
Self tappers
Thread-forming screws
Door hinge pins
Automotive clutch-brake pedal assemblies
Automotive disc-brake callipers and pistons
Suspension units
Clips and bracketing on domestic appliances
Splines
For lubricative coatings, the amount and type of lubricant can be varied to give 8μ values between 0.08 to 0.20.
Note:
Tightness may be experienced with small threaded fasteners having fine threads, e.g. below M5. This need not necessarily inhibit assembly, however. Blind holes should be avoided wherever possible. Components with flat surfaces, such as plain flat washers, may give rise to sticking, but can be for example Xylan® or Deltaseal® coated by using specialist processes or methods.
A range of proprietary processes are used to enable the supply of a coating to satisfy customer requirements and be able to be applied using the most economic method. These coatings range from Xylan®, Deltaseal®, Emralon® , Molykote® and Molydag®, E- Cote Polyseal® and others as specified.
