Tec-Seal™ Pre-Applied Thread Sealant
The Tec-Seal™ family of products is a durable, resilient sealant product line for fasteners and components with straight or tapered threads.
- Tec-Seal protects against corrosion by salt, chlorine, acids, and alkalis, effectively resisting natural gas, butane, propane, motor fluids and chemical solvents.
- Parts coated with Tec-Seal can be easily readjusted, removed, and reused.
- After application, Tec-Seal remains unaffected by extended storage.
DESCRIPTION:
Tec-Seal™ is a durable, resilient sealant product line for fasteners and components with straight or tapered threads. Tec-Seal thread sealants form an elastic, form-fitting gasket directly in the threads that prevents the passage of most fluids and helps keep joints tight, even under severe vibration.
As with all other Tectorius pre-applied products, Tec-Seal can be applied directly onto your parts and fasteners at any of our licensed applicators around the globe. Tec-Seal products are available in a variety of grades. Most Tec-Seal thread sealants are available in bulk for automated application and also in bottle form for lower volume jobs.
PRODUCT FEATURES:
» Low installation torque: This friction-diminishing formula assembles easily with common hand tools.
» Multiple reuses: Parts coated with Tec-Seal can be easily readjusted, removed, and reused.
» Chemical resistance: Tec-Seal protects against corrosion by salt, chlorine, acids, and alkalis. It effectively resists natural gas, butane, propane, motor fluids, and chemical solvents.
» Long shelf life: After application, Tec-Seal remains unaffected by extended storage.
» Saves money: Tec-Seal can be pre-applied to virtually any configuration or quantity of parts.
» Resists vibration, remains elastic: Though Tec-Seal is used to seal fasteners, it also helps to lock threads by resisting vibration. It is highly resistant to thermal shock and remains elastic through a wide range of temperatures.
» Safe: Non-hazardous and non-flammable.
» User-applied: Tec-Seal is available in many grades for use on a cable applicator, flow coater, or tumbling system.
APPLICATIONS:
Tec-Seal has been formulated to instantly seal both tapered and straight threads against most fluids, gases, fuels, and lubricants. Tec-Seal is used in a broad range of sealing and locking applications, including:
» filler plugs » sensors and gauges
» flange nuts » head bolts
» cable connectors » pipe fittings and plugs
» screws for plastic assembly » hydraulic fittings
