Technical Data Lubsil LS000
Product-No.: 9000 | IMDS-No.: 975042
Technical Datasheet
Lubricated Sealer for Zinc- and Zinc-alloys.
Features and Benefits
After application and drying, Lubsil LS000 forms an almost invisible, transparent seal with excellent corrosion protection and precise friction control - particularly suitable for passivated zinc and zinc alloys coated fasteners, applied dip-spin.
- Transparent coating
- Excellent adhesion to a wide variety of substrates
- No impairment of the material properties
- Economical consumption
- Improved corrosion protection
- Reliable fricition control (coefficient of friction)
Typical Applications
- Developed for coating and sealing zinc and zinc alloy substrates
- Compatible with all common passivations (blue, yellow, black, olive, etc.)
- Particularly efficient with Cr(VI)-free passivations and phosphates
- Meets and exceeds the corrosion protection requirements of the automotive industry
Application Remarks
- Lubsil LS000 is supplied ready for use and can be diluted with demineralized water if necessary (50-100% make up concentration).
- Parts to be coated must be free of grease.
- For optimum film formation, it is recommended to preheat the parts to 30-50 °C.
- Typical application process: Dip-spin process with coating centrifuges, alternatively drum coating or rack application
- After application, drying at 50-180 °C with hot air (e.g. chamber or continuous oven) is required.
- To avoid condensation, the parts should not be packaged until they have cooled down completely
