Axles and studs are widely used in electrical and mechanical engineering, particularly by manufacturers and equipment suppliers in the automotive, HGV, agricultural machinery and public works sectors.
Pre-coating axles and studs with a micro-encapsulated adhesive secures assemblies against accidental loosening.
Pre-coating is also a modern solution for sealing.
The sealing resins we pre-coat are resistant to the various fluids used in the automotive industry.
Pre-coating a manifold stud will ensure an immediate seal once it has been fitted to the cylinder head. Similarly, a waterproofed accessory support axle will eliminate oil seepage from a crankcase thread, thus avoiding the need for a costly anti-porosity treatment on the casting.
