Thread sealants replace conventional methods
Bondloc thread sealants are single-component liquids that cure at room temperature in the absence of air and when in contact with metal ions
Bondloc says that its thread sealants are designed to replace conventional methods which are used such as PTFE tape, O-rings or hemp, each of which has the capability to cause issues. For example, says the company, any PTFE tape shards generated during pipe assembly can contaminate internal hydraulic pipe systems, and PTFE tape can also leak once readjusted after pipe location setting. It also requires a manual wrapping thereby adding both time and cost whatever the application.
Bondloc points to a number of key advantages that users can expect from its thread sealants and highlights them as:
Single-component – clean and easy to apply
Does not creep, shrink or block systems
Can be used on any size of pipe fitting
Replaces all types of tape and paste sealants
The seal resists vibration and shock loads
Protects mated threaded areas against corrosion and galling
