It is designed to provide fasteners with long-term protection and easier installation and removal. Key properties and benefits - Very low coefficient of friction to reduce torque requirements. - Helps prevent seizing and galling of fasteners, even after long-term exposure. - High resistance to corrosion in harsh and corrosive environments. - Durable coating that helps extend fastener life. - "Easy on, easy off" characteristics that allow fasteners to be removed with standard tools instead of cutting, torching or nut splitting in many situations. - Helps reduce plant maintenance costs and improve safety by making fastener removal easier. Typical uses FluoroKote #1® coated fasteners are used widely in: - Chemical plants - Refineries - Offshore platforms - Public utilities - General industrial facilities Pre-coated studs, threaded bar and nuts Metal Coatings Corp. maintains a large inventory of pre-coated fasteners finished with the FluoroKote #1® process, including: - Coated B7 studs - Coated threaded bar - Coated 2H nuts Key points about pre-coated fasteners: - Stock is held in a wide range of sizes. - Items are available for same-day shipping, subject to current stock levels and order processing. - Products are sold to fastener distributors only, typically in keg/box or pallet quantities. - Nuts are tapped oversize to allow for the coating thickness and to support easier assembly. For detailed size ranges, current stock status, torque data, salt fog testing and other technical performance information, customers should contact Metal Coatings Corp. directly or refer to the company's published technical data sheets and test reports.
