ND Microspheres® Epoxy

ND Microspheres Epoxy is a pre-applied process in which microencapsulated, epoxy based, room temperature curing threadlocking adhesives are applied to male or female threaded fasteners of virtually all sizes, configurations, materials and finishes.

Notes

  • Under typical conditions, have a fixture time of 4 hours with a full cure in 72 hours.
  • It is recommended that ND Microspheres Epoxy processed parts are not reused.
  • Typically the first one to three threads from the end of the fasteners are left free of material to assure ease of starting.
  • Shelf life of un-activated part is 2 years when stored in a dry, cool environment.

Advantages

  • Versatile: ND Microspheres Epoxy processing is compatible with most fastener sizes, configurations, materials and finishes.
  • Resists Chemicals: Processed parts resist and seal against most automotive fluids. Oil, water, antifreeze, and gasoline have virtually no effect on performance once the final cure has been achieved.
  • Low Prevailing On Torque: Compared to patch threadlockers, ND Microspheres Epoxy fasteners have a lower on torque and assemble easily with common hand tools.
  • On-Part Life: Materials used for ND Microspheres Epoxy processing will remain inert until a cure is activated by thread engagement.
  • Surpasses IFI Standards: ND Microspheres Epoxy processed parts meet or exceed all torque requirements of IFI 125, IFI 525, as well as automotive adhesive coated fastener performance specifications.
