Eliminate Galling and Teflon Tape with FASTORQ’s Amazing Lubricant
Wouldn’t life be great if you could snap your fingers every time you came across damaged threads on a bolt and make them work like new?
Fantasy is now reality with the miracle lubricant FastLUBE AG!
Like magic, FastLUBE AG reforms stainless steel damaged threads to nearly their original shape and makes mating surfaces smooth and even once again.
The Test
As evidence, the following case study was performed on FastLUBE AG.
The threads of a stainless steel bolt were distorted with a hammer, but with just a quick application of FastLUBE AG, a nut was able to thread down the bolt despite the damage.
This type of thread recreation has been found to benefit numerous maintenance projects where damaged stainless steel bolts mean a loss of significant time and money, including project in such industries as oil and gas, subsea and paper mills.
However, with the versatility of FastLUBE’s AG to reform threads on damaged studs, this lubricant has beneficial applications ranging from industrial to home use.
Even More Capabilities
In addition to reforming damaged stud threads, FastLUBE AG’s bright yellow, grainy paste is a superior lubricant for eliminating galling on stainless steel threaded connections and achieving metal-to-metal seal.
“… I believe this compound (FastLUBE AG) can probably provide an effective solution to many, if not all, of the routinely occurring stainless steel thread galling problems,” according to Joe Greenslade in an article for American Fastener Journal.
FastLUBE AG has also been found effective on gall-susceptible materials, ferrous alloys and more common types of carbon steel. Thanks to its anti-galling properties, it is no surprise FastLUBE AG even lowers torque requirements and reduces friction under pressure.
If thread reformation and anti-galling wasn’t impressive enough, FastLUBE AG also prevents fugitive emissions and fluid connection leaks at pressures up to 20,000 psi because of its high percentage of PTFE flakes. Talk about a miracle lubricant!
Added Benefits and Recommended Use
An added benefit to FastLUBE AG is that it contains no metals or other ingredients that are hygienically or environmentally harmful. It has even passed both the “Shrimp Test” (drilling fluid toxicity test) and the Static Sheen Test in accordance with EPA standards.
FastLUBE AG works in temperatures ranging from 550°F to -30°F and is recommended for use as a thread compound in bolted joints, pipe and fittings applications,
If you are tired of a damaged bolt threads ruining your project or you need a superior anti-gall lubricant, it is time to stop wishing for a miracle and find one in FastLUBE AG.
