Tec-Flon™ 6000 products are a group of materials specially designed for fasteners and components to mask, reduce friction, increase job efficiency, and facilitate installation.
The Tec-Flon products are a group of materials specially designed for fasteners and components to mask, reduce friction, increase job efficiency and facilitate installation.
Other properties Tectorius’ specialized coatings can impart are: reduced surface wear, ‘squeak and rattle’ reduction, and galling and installation torque ‘chatter’ elimination.
Tec-Flon masking and anti-fouling materials are available in many grades with varying degrees of lubrication, temperature resistance, hardness, color and application methods.
» Welded nuts, studs and pierce nuts
» Resists adhesion of automotive underbody coatings
» Heating and cooling compressors
» Construction
» Large appliances
» Many more
» Prevents accumulation: of electro-coating, paint and welding byproducts onto metal components. This includes fasteners, bushings, nuts, studs and racking.
» Enhances installation: Lubricates fastener threads to reduce driving friction, heat buildup, thread galling, seizing, and surface damage.
» Reliable masking: prevents weld spatter, e-coat, spray paint, powder coat, and some platings from adhering to parts.
» Ensures uniformity: Helps to ensure uniform clamp loads and torque-to-tension ratios.
» Minimal pre-cleaning requirements: Only parts with excess oil or surface contaminants may require cleaning.
» Prevents damage: Low-heat application process helps prevent damage or discoloration to fastener platings.
» Reduces costs: associated with masking, plugging, or capping of threads.
» Eliminates re-tapping: which can compromise safety and quality.
