Features & Benefits
- Ready-to-Use Product Features
- Characteristics and Performance
- The coefficient of friction can be adjusted to targeted values ranging from 0.06 to 0.20 (ISO 16047) using specialized Plus® topcoats.
- Excellent assembly and multi-tightening behavior with lubricated topcoats: conform to VW 01129 and 01131.
- Good chemical resistance with topcoat (VDA 621-412).
- Performance maintained at elevated temperature (up to 300°C).
- Electrical conductivity for most application processes.
- Bimetallic compatibility with aluminum.
- Paintable coating.
- Two basecoats with topcoat yield 240 salt spray hours without white rust (ISO 9227/ASTM B117).
- Two basecoats with topcoat yield 1000 salt spray hours without red rust (ISO 9227/ASTM B117).
- Two basecoats with topcoat withstood 6 cycles ACT (STD 423 0014).
- Thin dry-film, non-electrolytic.
- Water-based chemistry.
- No hydrogen embrittlement.
- Passivated zinc flakes in a binder, patented chemistry.
