Threaded Fasteners

IKV manufacture a full range of lubricants for threaded fastener applications include galvanized screws and nuts, lock nuts and pinch nuts, chipboard screws, swivel nuts, façade & lining screws, vets, nails, heavy load dowels, screws & nuts made of stainless steel, aluminium and plastic.

They offer the engineer:-

•   Low coefficient of friction

•   Abrasion resistance

•   Good water resistance

•   Silicone free

•   Easy application

•   Good adhesion on all kinds of materials

•   Good storage stability of the coated parts – permits a time separation between lubrication and assembly

•   Application is also possible on wood

•   Also offers a level of protection from corrosion

•   Environmentally friendly

•   May be over painted

Threaded Fasteners

Normal uncoated screws vary considerably with the coefficient of friction & because the majority of fastener operations are torque-controlled this provides considerable fluctuations in tension load.

The coated screws offer only very slight variation in coefficient of friction resulting in reproducible tension loads.

The chance of shearing is greatly reduced especially in chipboard and thread forming screws.

The formulas adapt to different materials such as stainless steel, steel, aluminium whilst also meeting requirements with regard to corrosion protection.

The IKV Tribovis Series is yellow-transparent or white colour suspensions of white solid lubricant particles in water.

After applications and drying the product remains an invisible, dry film with excellent lubricating properties.

Applications include galvanized screws and nuts, lock nuts and pinch nuts, chipboard screws, swivel nuts, façade & lining screws, vets, nails, heavy load dowels, screws & nuts made of stainless steel, aluminium and plastic.

Threaded Fasteners

The IKV Tribovis Series range is colloidal dispersions in water of high molecular polymers. They dry to a film that coats the screw in order to reduce the coefficient of friction and minimizes any variations in coefficient of friction. Our products are proven to enable the tightening torque to be reduced by 40-50%.
