Read MoreA highly specialised fastening solution designed to deliver superior performance in some of the most demanding industrial environments.
These advanced coatings combine the unique benefits of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and Xylan, resulting in an exceptional blend of low friction, wear resistance, and chemical protection. The application of these coatings enhances the durability and longevity of the bolts, ensuring they perform optimally under extreme conditions where standard fasteners may struggle.
Low-Friction & Anti-Galling Properties
One of the most significant advantages of PTFE Blue Xylan-coated bolts is their outstanding low-friction properties. PTFE, widely recognised for its non-stick characteristics, reduces surface adhesion and ensures smooth operation. This helps to minimise friction between the bolt and mating surfaces, reducing the risk of galling, seizing, or premature wear. In applications where frequent assembly and disassembly are required, such as in offshore platforms, refineries, and high-pressure systems, these coatings ensure that bolts can be easily tightened and removed without damage to the threads.
Superior Chemical & Corrosion Resistance
Industries operating in chemically aggressive environments, such as the oil and gas sector, marine engineering, and chemical processing plants, require fasteners that can withstand exposure to harsh substances without degradation. Xylan coatings provide a robust chemical barrier, offering resistance to acids, alkalis, solvents, and other corrosive agents. Additionally, the PTFE component enhances moisture resistance, preventing rust and oxidation even in high-humidity or submerged conditions. This makes PTFE Blue Xylan-coated bolts a preferred choice for applications where traditional coatings, such as zinc or galvanised finishes, may fail over time.
Temperature & Environmental Stability
PTFE and Xylan coatings are designed to withstand extreme temperatures, making them suitable for environments that experience both high heat and sub-zero conditions. Unlike conventional fasteners that may expand, contract, or degrade due to temperature fluctuations, PTFE-coated bolts maintain their integrity, ensuring consistent performance across a wide temperature range. This stability is crucial in sectors such as aerospace, energy production, and heavy industrial machinery, where exposure to varying environmental conditions is inevitable.
