Nuts N' Bolts®
The Nuts N’ Bolts series is an anaerobic adhesive, used in nut and bolt assemblies. When the adhesive is confined between substrates, the oxygen is eliminated and the adhesive cures. These thread locking adhesives offer a wide-range of strengths, viscosities, and temperature ranges for just about any application. |
Benefits
- Excellent chemical and water resistance
- Many compounds prevent rusting of threads
