NylokHD® Patch is a high performance self-locking nylon retention element permanently bonded onto the threads of a nut via a special application technique. NylokHD® Patch will provide greater re-usability, and reduced torque scatter. When the patch is engaged, it creates a wedging action between the nut and mating part, compressing the nylon and promoting tight metal-to-metal contact opposite the patch. This metal-to-metal contact provides a positive resistance to vibration and loosening. Since nylon has great memory characteristics, this locking element is reusable. NylokHD® Patch can be applied to nuts of any style or plating. A wide range of nut sizes can be processed.
Advantages
Allows the use of a shorter nut and bolt , providing lighter assemblies
Can be used with a mid-range of plating and metals, eliminating the need for cadmium
Usable on any grade or style of nut
Meets prevailing torque requirements of IFI 100/107, NASM 25027 and unique OEM requirements
Ideal for aerospace and commercial vehicle industry where weight is critical
Exceptional vibration resistance
Highly reusable
Re-adjustable after original installation
Wide variety of patch coverage's available
Environmentally friendly, non-toxic
Torque values can be customized to meet your requirements
Does not damage finish on mating parts
Resistant to most lubricants, fuels, hydraulic fluids and commercial solvents
No metal removal to reduce fastener strength or performance
