Services
Mechanical Locking
Our mechanical locking solutions provide reliable fastener security through precision-engineered coatings that prevent loosening from vibration and shock. These durable coatings maintain integrity in extreme operating conditions while allowing for controlled disassembly when needed. Ideal for critical applications across automotive, aerospace, and industrial equipment manufacturing sectors.
Chemical Locking
Chemical locking systems use advanced anaerobic adhesives to create high-strength bonds that prevent fastener rotation and leakage. Our formulations offer temperature resistance from -65F to 300F while maintaining removability for maintenance purposes. Widely specified in automotive powertrain and aerospace structural applications requiring zero-maintenance performance.
Galvanic Corrosion Protection
Nyshield coating technology eliminates galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals while maintaining required surface finish specifications. This innovative solution preserves electrical isolation while providing Class 3 salt spray protection for over 1,000 hours. Successfully implemented in fire apparatus manufacturing and marine equipment applications.
Under Head Sealants
NySeal under head sealants create fluid-tight joints without compromising fastener torque specifications. These elastomeric coatings maintain sealing integrity across temperature extremes while resisting common automotive fluids and industrial chemicals. Ideal for sensor mounting and critical hydraulic system applications.
Thread Sealants
Our thread sealants combine mechanical locking with fluid containment properties to prevent leaks in pipe and fitting connections. Formulations meet ISO 7/1 and NPT standards while providing controlled application thickness for consistent sealing performance. Widely used in fuel systems, hydraulic equipment, and industrial piping applications.

Report
I would leave "0" stars if possible. Shipping and receiving staff were extremely RUDE and disrespectful. Their lack of professionalism is concerning. I will not be sending anymore of my equipment here to pickup or deliver moving forward. Better to let someone else deal with the bad attitudes at this place.
