Bonded coatings help reduce emissions

Kluber Lubrication GB product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
May 1, 2007
Kluber Lubrication has developed two new water-miscible bonded coatings for different load ranges, which are both easy to process and offer excellent performance.
For the reduction of friction and wear, dry lubrication is frequently used in all kinds of components because it has a number of major advantages.
For example, the lubricant cannot flow off the friction point, and in automatic assembly there is no risk that lubricated parts may stick together.
However, the increasing popularity of dry friction means that more and more bonded coatings containing solvents are being used.
This is contrary to efforts to reduce permissible solvent emissions.
Bonded coatings containing water rather than flammable solvents offer a viable alternative.
The advantages of dry lubrication can be fully used while solvent emissions are kept at bay.
Kluber Lubrication has developed two new water-miscible bonded coatings for different load ranges, which are both easy to process and offer excellent performance.
Klubertop TP 46-111 is a water-miscible bonded coating based on PTFE that offers excellent corrosion protection as well as low friction coefficients with surface pressures up to 10N/mm2.
It has been tried and tested for the dry lubrication of springs in car interiors, but may also be used for coating cylinder pins, bolts, safety belt components and similar small and mass-produced parts.
For higher surface pressures, Klubertop TS 02-141 is available.
It combines high load resistance with excellent corrosion protection and therefore suggests itself for all functional components that have to perform under high loads, such as bolts, cylinder pins, screws, nuts and components in car locks or safety belts.
Kluber Lubrication has developed these two water-miscible bonded coatings for low-cost mass coating processes.
