T22 Threadlocker
GENERAL INFORMATION: SAF–T–LOK anaerobic adhesive/leak suppressants are a one-component solvent-free compound formulated to lock, seal, seal and bond metal parts. It does not deteriorate in contact with air, it cures between two metals that are abetting each other in an oxygen-free environment. It forms a reversible polymer layer between the parts. SAF–T–LOK products provide resistance to solvent, corrosion and galvanic effects between parts in addition to fluid sealing for the user. After curing, SAF–T–LOK T22 allows parts to be disassembled with normal tools when necessary. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: SAF–T–LOK T22; It is used for low-strength locking and sealing, developed for bolt fastening and similar applications that require readjustment. Although this product pre-lubricates the mounting elements, it allows mounting with the required torque. It can be applied in situations that do not require high strength. Choosing this product is highly reliable in low strength fastenings as well as fluid tightness. IMPROVED EQUIPMENT RELIABILITY: It increases reliability by applying a greater fixing force to the locking screw and washer under vibration. It allows tightening with the appropriate torque for the required degree of fixation. It also provides significant savings compared to mechanical fastening methods. EASE OF APPLICATION: It does not need to be mixed with an adhesive material. It has a wide range of application methods to meet specific needs. It is easy to clean and has very little odor. SAF–T–LOK T22 is a thixotropic liquid. The thickness or viscosity of all thixotropic products depends on the shear applied or the speed of the measuring instrument. Low shears occur at high viscosities. This feature simplifies the application and reduces wastage. Another benefit of this product is its effect on the torque tension relationship. Unlike other stabilizer fluids that lubricate the assembly required, this product provides a direct ratio between tension and torque. In this way, the tension corresponding to the torque applied to an unlubricated or slightly lubricated fastener can be obtained. All thixotropic products should be shaken before use. TORQUE TENSION RELATIONSHIP: SAF–T–LOK fasteners generally increase bolt tension. Depending on the lubricating property of the fastener, the torque given to the bolt provides a greater tension, but this difference does not exceed 10% in SAF-T-LOK T22. The tension in fasteners can be controlled by regulating the applied torque. The relationship between tension and torque is as follows: T = CDFT= Torque (Nm) C= Coefficient of bolt and nut used D= Bolt Diameter (m) F= Tension or compression force (N) “C” values for some metals are below.

There was a general decrease in strength. The following strength percentages were reached after 30 days at 87°C.
