NYLOK® is a proprietary technology developed by Nylok Corporation. It consists of a nylon patch applied to a specific area of a fastener, transforming it into a self-locking fastener and providing sealing properties.
Thanks to the elastic memory of the patch, fasteners can be assembled and disassembled multiple times without compromising their locking performance.
CHARACTERISTICS
- Reusable: Maintains its prevailing torque properties even after multiple assembly and disassembly cycles.
- Effective locking in any position: Ideal for adjustment screws or set screws.
- Integrated sealing: The patch prevents the leakage or ingress of liquids and gases up to 6 bar, especially when applied in a 360° configuration.
- Torque flexibility: The number of threads covered and the application angle can be adjusted according to the required specification.
- Compatibility: Applicable to all types of metals, as well as to nuts and bolts with different surface treatments.
- High thermal resistance: Minimum resistance up to 120 °C and typically up to 160 °C.
- Chemical resistance: Does not dry out, decompose, or shrink, and can be stored indefinitely.
- Safety: Non-toxic and safe for personnel during assembly operations.
- Industrial advantage: Eliminates the need to apply locking compounds during assembly, optimizing processes and reducing production time.
