Coatings in application …
• Security against working loose or unscrewing
• Provision of a fluid or gas-tight seal
• Use in materials of any optional strength or surface hardness
• No damage to surfaces as is possi-ble with many washer elements orwith toothed-head screws
• No notching effect under the head,eliminating the risk of permanentfractures in thin-walled mouldings
• No metering problems of the typeencountered with fluid screw locking media
• No components becoming stuck onassembly belts
Product characteristics
Thread coating types Tuf-Lok, Nytemp,Nyseal, precote, 3M and Nycote havebeen proven in practical applicationthe world over.
KerbKonus offers a contract surfacetreatment service using these coatingmethods on supplied screws and nuts.
TufLok® – „der blaue Fleck“®
(the blue patch) or as an all-round coating
A reliable economic system for lockingand sealing screw connections. A high-ly elastic, wear-resistant blue nyloncoating is applied to part of the threadon screws and other threaded compo-nents.
The TufLok spot creates a high frictio-nal engagement during the installationprocess, firmly pressing together theflanks between the screw and nutthread.At the same time, it fills the axialbacklash between the screw and nutthread, creating a connection whichprevents the screw from working looseunder dynamic loads.
Nytemp®
High-temperature screw locking andsealing system for use at continuoustemperature stress of up to 200°C(higher temperature stress also possi-ble for short periods).
Due to the high coating temperature,this product can only be used onbright or phosphated threaded compo-nents. Short term corrosion protectionmay be applied subsequently.
„der blaue Fleck“ (the blue patch) is a Trademark of Kerb-Konus-Vertriebs-GmbH
Nyseal®
Nyseal is a new concept, involving theapplication of elastic seals on screwsand other threaded components priorto application, either directly under thehead, flange or on the thread run-out.This eliminates the need for the use ofmanually applied washers, seals or O-rings.
Nycote®
Nycote is a patent-protected coatingmethod involving the application ofinsulating (non-conductive) Teflonpowder on the heated threaded com-ponent.
Result: A protective layer which pre-vents unwanted deposits from primers,paints and other surfaces during theelectrodeposition process.
precote/3M®
The principle goes by the name ofmicroencapsulation: Minute fluid drop-lets trapped in a thin-walled capsule.This method allows fluid adhesivelocking systems to be „packaged“ inpowder form.
The powder-form microcapsules areworked into a reactive binder systemand applied in this form to the threadsurfaces. The threaded components arecoated by mechanical droplet wettingusing special coating plants.
During installation of the threadedcomponents, the microcapsules breakopen, releasing the fluid adhesivelocking medium, which dries quickly.
A screw connection is created whichnot only has sealing properties but isalso secured against vibration and lossof pre-stress.

On the test stand …
A company’s success depends primari-ly on its productivity and innovativedrive as well as on the quality of itsservices.
A high standard of quality is funda-mental to any company’s long-termsuccess in the marketplace.
Quality improvement and enhancedproductivity are not self-contradictory.Quite the contrary: Where an efficient,functioning Quality System is in place,they serve to complement each other.
For this reason, KerbKonus has inves-ted heavily also in developing and ex-panding a system of internal produc-tion surveillance in its thread coatingproducing division.
Since as long ago as June 16, 1994,our company has been certified to DINISO 9001, passing the repeat and sur-veillance audits with flying colours.
Certification to QS-9000/VDA 6.1 wassuccessfully completed in February1999.
Threaded inserts from KerbKonus aremanufactured in large piece numbers.Human lives and safety can oftendepend upon these tiny components,for instance in the case of airbag retaining fasteners.
Because we bear this heavy responsi-bility, our products are tested andmonitored in line with the most strin-gent directives. In the case of particu-larly critical applications, each andevery part is exhaustively tested onstate-of-the-art test equipment beforeit is delivered to you.

TufLok®/Nytemp®for self-lockingexternal threads
TufLok® – „der blaue Fleck“® (theblue patch) has proven highly success-ful in practical applications around theglobe: In the automotive engineeringindustry, in heavy-duty machinery, fit-tings and appliance construction, inhydraulic systems, electrical and preci-sion mechanics and in optical applica-tions.
The TufLok spot is also suitable for usewherever other systems are unable tomeet requirements for technical oreconomic reasons:• For extremely small screws –
from M 0,8• For screws made of hard materials• For screws whose cross-section must
not be weakened• For threaded bolts
TufLok screws are mounted either me-chanically or manually using conven-tional tools.The TufLok screw enhances productivi-ty due to its capacity for fully automa-tic feed and installation. The femalethread does not need to be free of oilor grease, so allowing torque levels tobe decreased.
• TufLok®: Temperature resistantfrom -56° to +120°C. Followingprior practical testing, applicationsup to +150°C are possible.
• Nytemp®: For high-temperaturescrew locking for continuous ther-mal stress of up to 200°C (higherthermal stress also possible for shortperiods).
• TufLok®: Does not dry out, shrinkor decompose, has a practically unli-mited storage life. Resistant to alco-hol, oil, petrol and most thinners.
The TufLok coating is also suitable foruse in the food industry.
• Excellent locking effect compared toother methods; even if screws arenot correctly tightened.
• Vibration-resistant in every screw-inposition. This makes the TufLok screwideally suited as an adjusting screw.
• Fluid and gas-tight seal. The nylonlayer presses firmly into the flanks ofthe thread, so preventing the ingressof media. All-round coating isrecommended for these applications.
• Replaces positive locking elementswhich are often forgotten and lostduring assembly. The blue TufLok dotis an integral part of the screw andcannot be lost.
• Multiple use. The highly elastic blueTufLok spot always endeavours toregain its original shape. Its system-typical spray edge area safeguardsthe contact surface from shearingoff.
• No drying time whatsoever required– immediately capable of withstan-ding stress. No problems also whentightening the TufLok screw duringfinal installation.
• Suitable for all metallic materials,also for threaded components madeof stainless steels, light alloys andbrass, as well as for almost all sur-face-treated parts.
Coating takes place in accordancewith works standard 900.1.
It is also possible for galvanizedscrews to be chromated after TufLokcoating; The concentration of nitricacid for activation of the zinc coatmay not exceed five percent,it should always be kept as low aspossible.
Optimum results are achieved with aclean, smooth and chip-free nut threadin the medium tolerance category. Wegenerally recommend countersinkingthe female thread.
The TufLok system can be usedwithout problems in running produc-tion series without any need for toolmodification.
Most special requirements relating tothe position of the coating and the de-gree of torque can be accommodated.

Torque testing
1. Torque testing should be carried out using properly calibrated gauges2. Turn the screw into the test nut until the coating is positioned within the nut, measuring the maximum screw-in torque (max. values, see
table, column I).3. Back the screw out 90°, then measure the greatest torque during the following 360° (for target value, see table, column II).4. Back the screw out completely from the test nut four times and then screw back in again. During the fifth unscrewing process, once again
measure the greatest torque level during the first 360° (for target value, see table, column III).
The values specified in the table assume the use of screws whose material and surface quality are homogenous. Tightening torque levelsduring testing under pretension: see specifications of the screw manufacturer.
Special versions
Deviating coating lengths, spot or all-round coating and/or other coating positions. Deviating torque levels and values for different testmethods (e.g. with test nut corresponding to DIN 267, part 28, point 5.1.2) or other screw tolerances: Test coating required.
Alongside the standard colours blue for TufLok and orange for Nytemp, other colours can be supplied on request for purposes of differentia-tion (e.g. inch/metric, different strength classes and for identifying small dimensions, for example M1/M1.2).

TufLok®/Nytemp®for self lockinginternal threads
Self-locking internal threads are coa-ted with a highly elastic nylon layer,
TufLok® –„der blaue Fleck“® (theblue patch).
When screwing on the internal thread,this blue TufLok spot brings about ahigh level of surface pressure againstthe flanks of the mating thread.
The nylon layer also fills out the axialbacklash between the threads of thescrew and nut, producing a vibration-proof connection which prevents thethread from working loose underdynamic stress, but can be released atany time.
Self-locking TufLok internal threadshave proven highly successful throug-hout every branch of industry, forexample in automotive engineering,and in all types of constructions andappliances – particularly where thereis a danger of parts working loosefrom machines or vehicles in opera-tion.
Field of application
• The TufLok internal thread coatingbrings about a high degree of locking safety.
• The self-locking TufLok nut can bequickly and simply installed, eithermanually or using fully automaticscrewing devices. It is ideal for pre-cise setting work.
• In contrast to lock nuts with defor-med threads or toothing, theTufLoknut prevents any surface damage tothe workpiece, thread erosion, aswell as abrasion or damage to thescrew thread.
• Additional locking elements can bedispensed with, meaning cost sav-ings due to lower outlay for storage,scheduling and inventory manage-ment.
• The „built-in locking effect“ cannever be left out accidentally duringinstallation or be lost during repairs– meaning added security.
• The TufLok internal thread isreusable.
• TufLok®: Temperature resistantfrom -56°C to 150°C.
• Nytemp®: For higher continuousthermal stress of up to 200°C (higher stress levels possible forshort periods).

Nyseal® - under-headpre-coating for sealingheaded screws …
Nyseal® is a new concept permittingelastic seals to be applied under thehead, flange or at the thread run-outof screws or other threaded compo-nents – already prior to installation.
This eliminates the need to use manually mounted washers, seals orO-rings.
Nyseal is a green, optionally transpa-rent plastic coating which is melteddirectly onto the underneath of thescrew head. This achieves an excellentsealing effect against fluids and gases.At the same time, the coating acts asa buffer for sensitive surfaces of theworkpieces to be joined.
• Low-cost pre-coating
• Prevention of corrosion under thescrew head
• Excellent sealing properties
• No additional washers or seals needed
• Workplaces and assembly worksta-tions are kept clean
• No waste

Nystay® - the precoating intended to keep fasteners „in their place“ during transportation and assembly …
Product features:
• holds fasteners in place duringtransport, assembly or installation
• non-toxic and environmentallyfriendly – plastic coating onpolyolefin basis
• no chemical hardening
• may be positioned at any optionallocation on the shank of a fastener
• shortens assembly times forend user
Nystay® is a plastic precoatingwhich is applied directly to the shankof fasteners in order to secure themduring transportation or assembly intheir relevant application/assemblygroup.
Field of application
Nystay® can be used for all fasteners– whether threaded or not.It facilitates preassembly, especially incase of automatic feeders and robotapplications. The range of applicationsis, of course, not restricted to screws,but encompasses all fasteners such asshafts, rivets, studs, pressed and turnedparts etc.
User benefits:
Screws coated with Nystay in thethread area can be pre-inserted intothe component. The coating fixes thescrew reliably in the borehole. The enduser will therefore receive asubassembly already preassembledwith screws, eliminating the need fortedious selection and insertion ofappropriate screws. At the same time,fastener stocks can so be reduced andsimplified. Operating and cycle timesduring final assembly can bedrastically shortened when using pre-assembled components.

Nyplas® is an innovative conceptwhich allows Plastisol/PVC sealingmaterial to be applied to screws andother thread elements directlyunderneath the head, flange or at thethread runout, using the precoatingmethod.
The use of washers, sealing rings etc.to be applied manually is no longerrequired.
Field of application
Nyplas® is a black PVC/Plastisolcoating which is applied directly to theunderneath of the screw head. Thisensures an excellent seal againstliquids and gases. At the same time,this coating acts as a buffer forsensitive surfaces of the workpieces tobe screw-fastened. Compared to ourNyseal coatings, much higher layerthicknesses are achieved using Nyplas.On principle, a practical test isrecommended before use inproduction, in order to determine therequired layer thicknesses.

Nycote® – the insulatingcoating …
Fields of applicationWhere thick deposits impair the easyrunning properties of screws, Nycoteoffers the ideal protection: from galva-nic deposits, as well as cataphoreticprimers and paints applied duringelectrodeposition, particularly whenusing the cathodic principle.
The Nylok Fasteners Corporation in theUSA, Licensor to KerbKonus, developedthis special coating process. A specialpowder blend – based on Teflon – isapplied by means of heat to the screwsas a closed layer which completelycovers the thread.
As a consequence, protective layersand primers applied during the elec-trodepostion process do not adhere tothe threads, and so do not impair sub-sequent installation.
In the case of parts coated with Nycote,the coefficient of friction is reducedwhen tightening the screws. This cha-racteristic makes it easier for the pres-cribed installation conditions to becomplied with.
The solution: Nycote®
Exhaustive testing has shown thatNycote has characteristics which pre-vent cataphoretic primers or paintsfrom adhering to threads.
Wherever the Nycote protective layercovers the thread, it is not possible forprimers or paints to adhere to the sur-face.
Threaded components – both internaland external threads – are pre-coatedusing a special technique. They thengo on to be processed in the accus-tomed way without problems on theproduction line, for example using wel-ding machines.
Another benefit: This processingmethod also prevents the often trou-blesome adhesion of welding beads.
Wherever electrodeposition or galvanictreatments are used and threadedareas have to be covered over, itmakes sense to use parts pre-coatedwith Nycote.
When using this method, the applica-tion of Nycote on the coupling ele-ments serves to cover the requiredthreaded area: This effectively preventspaint deposits on the threads whichwould impair installation.
Another benefit of Nycote: Improvedscrew sliding properties. Nycote redu-ces the coefficient of friction duringinstallation and guarantees a definedclamping force.The process is ideally suited for thefast installation processes demandedby many branches of industry today.
Nycote replaces the coats of wax orlubricant which are often applied toimprove sliding properties.

Benefits of applying an insulating coat …
• Nycote reduces the coefficient offriction, so allowing weld nuts andbolts to be more quickly installedand eliminating the need for subse-quent oiling or greasing.
• The special sliding properties of Ny-cote reduce the „chattering“ noiseproduced by the screwing process,thus preventing the unpleasant highfrequencies created when screwingmetal on metal.
• Nycote is made of Teflon, and istherefore completely unharmful bothto health and to the environment.
• Nycote protects against unwanteddeposits during electrodeposition,priming and coating.
• Nycote has an insulating effect.
• Nycote prevents paint depositsduring painting operations. Duringsubsequent installation of the threa-ded components, the coating is de-signed to rub off and so ensure aconductive screw connection.
• Nycote reduces variance in the coef-ficient of friction, in order to main-tain the correct pretension forceduring installation.
• Nycote prevents the often trouble-some adhesion of welding beadsduring the welding process both onthe surface of welded bolts and alsoin the internal thread of weldednuts. Laborious and costly reworkingoperations are no longer required.
How the Nycote coating works
Nycote is a patent-protected coatingmethod involving the application ofinsulating (non-conductive) Teflonpowder on a heated threaded compo-nent. This forms a protective layeragainst unwanted deposits of primers,paints and other surfaces during elec-trodeposition.
The Nycote thread coating is the low-cost alternative to most customarycoverings. It generates a certain lubri-cation effect at the threads, reducesunwanted noises created during instal-lation and prevents welding splashesfrom adhering to the surface.
When installing the threaded compo-nent, the Nycote layer is rubbed offthe supporting thread flanks, creatingbright, metallic contact surfaces foroutstanding electrical conductivity anddefined screw connection strength.
The abraded material is pressed intothe cavities of the thread coupling,particularly in the root area of the nutthread and at the crest of the screwthread.
Due to a chemical process, Nycotedoes not adhere to the thread surfacesof the fastening element.
During coating, the Teflon powder ismelted into the pores and cracks inthe surface, so creating a mechanicalbond: Strong enough to hold the coa-ting on the surface of the threadedelement and weak enough to guaran-tee its abrasion during the installationprocess.
The benefits at a glance Application in the automotiveengineering industry
All car manufacturers offer long war-ranty periods today as a purchaseincentive. Good corrosion resistance isof instrumental importance here,which the automotive industry hasaddressed by developing new primersand paints.
These new primers present a numberof problems. During electrodeposition,the pre-assembled body in white withall the necessary fastening elementspasses through an immersion tankcontaining the primer, which adheresto each component by means of acataphoretic process, including thefastening elements of any existingthreads.
This coating is difficult to remove, andthis process often involves costlyreworking. However, clean threads areessential to correct and troublefreeassembly.

Coating with Nycote reducesvariance in the coefficient of fric-tion, achieving a defined degreeof pretension.
Variance in the coefficient of frictiontoday plays a co-determining role inthe dimensioning of a screw connec-tion in all currently used methods ofscrew tightening.
As in most cases a torque-controlledmethod of screw connection tighte-ning is used, the required pretensionforce FV is determined by the tighte-ning torque MA.
This means that the pretension forceFV cannot be measured directly. It iscalculated indirectly as a function ofthe tightening torque.
To simplify, a minimum pretensionforce FV min. is required to ensure thereliable function of a screw connec-tion. This FV min must be achievedeven under adverse installation condi-tions, i.e. at maximum thread frictionlevels.
The diagrams indicate that with thesame tightening torque but reducedcoefficient of friction, the achievedpretension force FV rises. This can leadto excess stress and failure of thescrew connection.
Due to the relatively large variance inthe coefficients of friction occurringwith uncoated surfaces, it was formerlyfrequently necessary to resort to over-dimensioned screw connections.
The use of Nycote prevents variance inthe coefficient of friction and so redu-ces the need for overdimensioning. Theresult: benefits in terms of both weightand costs. At the same time, the use ofNycote reduces the coefficient of fric-tion in the thread.

Application
For protection against cathodi-cally applied electrodepositioncoatings (cataphoretic primersand paints) using the KTL tech-nique. This involves high layerthicknesses which can impairthe easy running properties ofthreads.
At the same time, coating withNycote exerts a favourableinfluence on the coefficient offriction occurring in threadedcomponents and prevents thefrequently occurring adhesion ofweld splashes.
Using Nycote, previously essen-tial cover-up or reworking opera-tions are now eliminated.

Tests
1. Prior to coating, the easy running properties of the nut or bolt are tested using a 6H gauge plug or a 6g gauge ring bymeans of random testing.
3. During the coating process, a test of the easy-running properties is performed using KKV test bolts / KKV test nuts atdefined intervals and in defined piece numbers. KKV test bolts / nuts mean that the core diameter has been producedto mean tolerance.
3. Final testing is performed using a standard commercially available true-to-gauge screw or nut.
4. In addition, parts can be cathodically immersion painted in order to test that no paint adheres to the coated nut or tothe bolt.
Surface treatment of the parts prior to Nycote coating is not necessary. Parts should be delivered in a bright/oiled con-dition. After coating they are returned again bright or with a temporary corrosion protection (oil). Connecting elementswith electroplating surface treatment (copper plated, zinc plated or similar) or painted surfaces call for the executionof special measures. If, for example, parts have to be electroplated after Nycote coating, prior to coating a light pre-copper plating process is required. Only in this way is it possible to guarantee adhesion of the Nycote layer followingthe electroplating process. For this reason, it is advisable for the user to clarify all details prior to placement of order.
The coating itself can be stored for an unlimited period. However, the corrosion resistance of the overall component(effect of the corrosion protection agent) must be taken into consideration. Mechanical stress on the coating can leadto spot damage to the closed layer, in particular it the case of bolt threads, where paint can be deposited in isolatedareas during electrodeposition coating.
Coating of bolt thread WN 911/912:The head remains free of coating.
Coating of nut thread WN 913:The thread chamfer remains free of coating toensure troublefree welding.
Spray transitions at the start and end of thecoating do not affect the function.
