Based on the principle of prevailing torque, inert thread locking processes create fasteners with instant retention and sealing properties along with the added benefit of adjustability and reusability. Inert threadlockers are highly chemical resistant and eliminate the need for costly lock washers, cotter pins, or castellated nuts.
ND Patch®
The ND Patch and ND Patch 360° Ring processes adhere nylon to threaded fasteners of all sizes and configurations making them self-locking and self-sealing. Reusable and adjustable.
ND Patch®
Hi-Temp
The ND Patch Hi-Temp coating process produces a completely dry product that is fused to the fastener and is ready to use right out of the box. Self-locking and self-sealing, ND Patch Hi-Temp performs immediately upon assembly with no curing time required.
ND Pell-it®
The ND Pell-It is a special, tough nylon plug or pellet, inserted into a drilled hole, which makes any threaded fastener self-locking and self-sealing, while leaving it fully adjustable. Works on any fastener substrate or finish.
ND Pell-it®
Soft Touch Tip
ND Pell-It Soft Touch Tip is a pre-applied, self-locking, self-sealing, environmentally friendly material pellet inserted in set screw or bolt ends. The Pell-It permits full-face, cushioned contact with a curved shaft while ensuring a secure hold.
ND Strip®
Normally a resilient bar of Nylon (other materials available) that is inserted into a slot which has been milled into a threaded fastener, ND Strip makes fasteners self-locking, self-sealing, and yet fully adjustable.
Vibra-Tite®
VC-3®
Vibra-Tite VC-3 is a powerful locking and sealing coating for threaded fasteners that works on the principle of “friction through viscosity.” It utilizes a special blend of acrylic resins to prevent fasteners from loosening — even under extreme vibration.
HQ Self-Locking
Inserts
ND “HQ” (High-Quality) Self-Locking Threaded Inserts are constructed of lightweight molybdenum, disulfidecoated, stainless steel with a nylon strip element that provides positive locking action for both internal and external threads.
