HIGH-TEMPERATURE PATCH FOR LOCKING & SEALING – PRE-APPLIED TO SEELSKREW®, SEELBOLT® & SEALNUT® SELF-SEALING FASTENERS

HIGH-TEMPERATURE PERFORMANCE – Maintains torque values through temperatures from -70°F (-57°C) to +500°F (+260°C)

A specially formulated Nylon high-temperature Patch is generally applied to a minimum of 2-3 threads from the fastener end with 4-6 threads of coverage to assure ease of starting the nut/bolt assembly. When the mating threads are engaged, the patch is compressed creating a dam-like action on the opposite side of the coating resulting in very strong metal-to-metal contact.When the hightemperature patch is fully seated, it forms a positive lock that will not loosen, even under extreme vibration. This dam-like action adds to the high-pressure sealing characteristics of the O-ring & groove sealing design of our self-sealing fasteners.

The World's Most Hostile Environments Are Our Proving Grounds
For Electronics Controls As Well As Self-Sealing Fasteners

Since 1947,  the Electronics Division of APM HEXSEAL has lead the industry in developing and manufacturing  environmental protection sealing components for controls  that are mounted on switches, potentiometers and circuit breakers.  Using advanced elastomer molding technology, a broad range of sealing boots are produced to match most controls manufactures’ standard part numbers,  which are stocked by leading electronics and industrial distributors in the United States, Canada and World-wide. Most are IP66/68 ingress protection rated and UL recognized.  APM sealing products are used extensively in marine, medical, military, process industry, electronic instrumentation, off-road and construction equipment -- wherever hostile environmental/operational conditions exist.
