Two Types of Products Solve Different Problems

Thread locking compounds are mainly used for anti-loosening locking and leak-proof sealing between screws, nuts, and studs; plane sealants are mainly used for flat sealing scenarios such as flange end faces, mechanical mating surfaces, and box body end faces.

How to Determine Which One to Choose

If the problem is thread loosening due to vibration or leakage from thread gaps, give priority to thread locking compounds; if the problem is leakage at the junction of two flat surfaces or gasket replacement, give priority to plane sealants.

Parameters to Confirm When Procuring

It is recommended to confirm disassembly requirements, strength grade, operating temperature, medium type, gap size, curing time, and application method. If disassembly for later maintenance is needed, select the appropriate strength grade.

Purchasing Frequently Asked Questions

What information is required before bulk purchasing?

It is recommended to provide application scenarios, substrate materials, target strength, temperature resistance requirements, curing methods, packaging specifications, and estimated purchase quantity to facilitate quick determination of product direction.

Is a sample test required first?

Industrial adhesives are greatly affected by materials, surface treatment and usage environment. It is recommended to conduct a sample test before bulk purchasing, then confirm the model and packaging specifications.
