Advanced Corrosion Protection
(ASTM B117 Tested)
Objective – Assess the protective capabilities of Nylok NyShield® against corrosive environments
Design – M10 Fasteners installed in carbon fiber and magnesium panels, then exposed to neutral salt spray per ASTM B117
Objective – Assess the protective capabilities of Nylok NyShield® against corrosive environments
Implications
- Fasteners without NyShield® were corroded entirely
- NyShield® coated fasteners led to a significant corrosion reduction on the surrounding magnesium surface
- NyShield® limits corrosion at critical fastening locations, upholding assembly reliability and functionality
Implications
- Fasteners without NyShield® experienced extreme corrosion and rusting
- NyShield® coated fasteners were minimally affected by salt spray after the 1000 hours
- NyShield® coated fasteners thrive in highly corrosive environments, remaining secure and reliable
