Adhesive

Chemical thread locking adhesives are the most cost effective and permanent way of preventing threaded fastener failure.

If your products are subjected to critical clamp load pressures and you have not considered Belmatic Industries applying fastener adhesives, ask for a quote today: it is worth finding out if you have the most economical and effective solution available. Chemical thread locking adhesives are the most cost effective and permanent way of preventing threaded fastener failure.

Microencapsulated adhesive coatings are inert until the fastener is assembled to its mating part, whereby a chemical reaction is initiated that locks the parts together. The strength of that bond can be matched to the application by changing the formulation.

Belmatic routinely applies a wide range of micro-encapsulated adhesive coatings to secure every type of threaded fastener, for every application, in every assembly process.

These pre-applied adhesives are dry to handle during product assembly, with a long shelf life as they are chemically stable at room temperature. Selecting the right coating is easy because Belmatic has expertise and experience unequalled in the Australian fastener industry.

That knowledge is available to you through your project manager when you ask Belmatic to apply the ideal fastener coating for your requirements. Pre-coated fasteners can be assembled with pneumatic or hand tools.

Key beneﬁts

Dry ﬁnish ensures easy handling and meets OH&S requirements, as Belmatic applied fastener coatings eliminate the drips, mess and fumes associated with liquid adhesives applied at point of assembly.

Colour coding is available to custom order so your assembly workers can easily recognize the right fastener for the right application. Robust stability ensures the coating remains unaffected by exposure to most common contaminant liquids including oil, gasoline, acids, salt-spray, air and water.

Available brands

3M, Loctite, ND Industries, OmniTechnik. Belmatic-applied adhesives are engineered to withstand extreme vibration.

Anti-friction

Belmatic’s applied anti-friction coatings all adds up to less wear-n-tear, resulting in lower maintenance costs.

Belmatic-applied anti-friction coatings are the ideal answer when fasteners need to be removed after insertion.

Pre-applied anti-friction coatings provide reduced thread friction, on both insertion and subsequent removal. That all adds up to less wear-n-tear and lower maintenance costs.

These pre-applied anti-friction coatings are dry to handle during product assembly and easy to store. They have a long shelf life after coating, as the formulations are chemically stable at room temperature.

Selecting the right coating is easy for because Belmatic has expertise and experience unequalled in the Australian fastener industry. That knowledge is available to you through your project manager when you ask Belmatic to apply the ideal fastener coating for your requirements.

Pre-coated fasteners can be assembled with pneumatic or hand tools.

Key beneﬁts

Fast assembly and low maintenance costs: ideal for applications where products require regular disassembly to service, clean or adjust.

Robust performance with very low friction coefﬁcient:

Withstands exposure to high temperatures.
Resistant to adhesion and abrasion.
Resistant to solvents, oils, grease or paints.
Protects against electrostatic corrosion.

It allows for a permanent lubrication at high temperatures and in applications where oils and greases cannot be used.

High loads on sliding or oscillating parts.

Suitable for metal fasteners, bearings and similar components subject to high loads in sliding or oscillating movements or during intermittent operations.

Dry ﬁnish: we ensure easy handling in order to meet OH&S requirements. Belmatic applies sealants that eliminate drips, mess and fumes of liquid coatings applied at point of assembly.

Local service: we ensure a fast and ﬂexible turnaround, just-in-time delivery, ready access to expert advice and a commitment to building long-term relationships with Australian manufacturers.

Specialist coatings are available for anti-seize / anti-friction coating: Belmatic applied anti-seize / anti-friction coating on your threaded fasteners will prevent seizing, galling, pitting, excessive wear and corrosion.

Available brands

Dow Corning, ND Industries, Loctite, 3M. Belmatic-applied lubricants stop friction.

Lubricant

Reduce assembly costs immediately. Belmatic applied thread lubricants let your production line run faster and more smoothly.

Pre-applied lubricant coatings reduce thread friction, allowing effective tightening at higher drive speeds with less operator fatigue. That all adds up to faster assembly times and reduced production costs.

Pre-applied lubricants are dry to handle during product assembly, with a long shelf life as they are chemically stable at room temperature. Selecting the right coating is easy because Belmatic has expertise and experience unequalled in the Australian fastener industry.

That knowledge is available to you through your project manager when you ask Belmatic to apply the ideal fastener coating for your requirements.

Key beneﬁts

Cost effective: reducing assembly time, total assembly costs operator fatigue and tool wear.

Increase productivity and reduce downtime: Belmatic-applied thread lubricants improve torque clamp-down and speed up assembly operations.

Reduce heat build up and thread galling in long rundowns.
Ensure uniform clamp loading.
Minimise incidence of fasteners shearing during assembly.

Competitive pricing: getting your fastener coatings applied by Belmatic ensures you get excellent value for money without sourcing from Asia.

Specialist coatings are available for low drive-torque: ideal when controlled low drive torque is needed during assembly. Reduces installation torque on tri-lobular or self-threading screws. Thread masking prevents unwanted substances, such as weld spatter or electrostatic paint, from adhering to fastener threads for enhanced smooth running.

Combined thread masking / lubricant: a patented blend of polymers (including Teﬂon®) providing lubricity with minimal pre-cleaning. Does not cause heat damage or discolouration to the fastener during processing.

Available brands

3M, Loctite, ND Industries, OmniTechnik, Tectorius North America. Belmatic-applied lubricants stop binding.

Sealant

If keeping gas or liquid in (or out) is a critical factor in your product, belmatic applied thread sealants provide the answer you’re looking for.

Belmatic-applied thread sealants on your fasteners will cure to form a tough insoluble plastic ﬁller, ensuring tight joints and good elasticity to cope with vibration, changing pressures or ﬂuctuating temperatures.

Belmatic routinely applies a range of coatings to seal every type of threaded fastener (including tapered or straight threads), for every application, in every assembly process.

Selecting the right coating is easy because Belmatic has expertise and experience unequalled in the Australian fastener industry. That knowledge is available to you through your project manager when you ask Belmatic to apply the ideal fastener coating for your requirements.

Pre-applied thread sealants are dry to handle during product assembly, with a long shelf life as they are chemically stable at room temperature.

Specialist coatings are available for:

Combined locking and sealing a powerful locking and sealing coating, which works on the principle of “friction through viscosity”.

This is not an adhesive, nor an anaerobic, but instead utilises a special blend of acrylic resins to prevent fasteners from loosening – even under extreme vibration or torque.

Wax sealants, unlike all other sealants, form a water-tight seal under the head of the fastener as well as on the thread, eliminating thread corrosion and annoying squeaks or rattles. Ideal for use with self-tapping screws in exterior or underbody applications. Available brands: 3M, Loctite, ND Industries, Tectorius North America. Belmatic-applied sealants stop leakage.

Key beneﬁts

High pressure and temperature.

Belmatic-applied thread sealants are used in a broad range of sealing or locking applications to seal effectively under high pressure and over a wide range of temperatures.
