Mixing Method
Hyloloc 406 is a two component mix, comprising of:
a)
b)
1.
2
3
4.
Water-based binder & Methacrylate resin
Microencapsulated curing agent
Thoroughly mix the Water-based resin, to eliminate any separation.
When the water-based resin is smooth and homogenous, slowly add the encapsulated
Curing agent and mix until fully dispersed (approximately 5 minutes).
NB. Only mix the curing agent at low speed, taking care not to break the microcaps.
The Hyloloc 406 is now ready for use.
Method of Application
1. Apply an even coating of Hylomar Hyloloc 406 to the threaded component, taking care not to coat
the first 2 or 3 threads.
2. Dry the coated component in an air-circulating oven for 30 minutes at 60°C. It is essential that
temperatures over 65°C are not reached. As this will cause premature curing of the
compound.
3. Allow to cool then store the components in a cool dry place* until required.
*4.It is essential that the dried components are stored in a sealed airtight container, to
eliminate atmospheric moisture.
NB. Mixed Hyloloc 406 has a pot life of 24 hours. Any material left after 24 hours must be
discarded.
Typical Applications
Hylomar Hyloloc 406 eliminates the need for applying anaerobic thread-locking compounds at the
point of assembly, giving higher production rates and eliminating operator inconsistencies.
Hylomar Hyloloc 406 can inhibit corrosion of mating components due to its sealing action.
Handling and Safety Properties
Risk Phrases: R36/38
Safety Phrases: S26 and S28
However, components coated with Hylomar Hyloloc 406 and allowed to dry are not classified as
hazardous.
