FUNCTIONALITIES

Lubrication

PLUS® L allows to obtain a stable and controlled friction coefficient in the range of 0.08-0.14. It provides outstanding tribological performances and stability regarding multi-tightening with various counterparts materials (cataphoretic paint, aluminum alloys, cast iron and steel) while avoiding stick-slip problems.

0.08-0.14

Coefficient of friction (ISO 16047)

* Measured on GEOMET® 321 or GEOMET® 720 on HM10.

Corrosion protection

Combined with our zinc flake basecoats, PLUS® L reacts and creates a barrier effect that improves both the corrosion resistance of the system and the contact corrosion with aluminum and other materials.

Chemical resistance

Resistance to industrial solvents and automotive fluids.

Color tracing

PLUS® L can be colored for part visual identification and differentiation.

No hydrogen embrittlement

Implemented via non-electrolytic application processes. This avoids the hydrogen embrittlement phenomenon that causes cracking of metals.

APPLICATION

Processes

PLUS® L is applied via bulk dip/spin, rack dip/spin, spray or electrostatic spray. This variety of processes allows to coat all types of parts, even those requiring partial coating, or with recessed and hollow surfaces. Moreover, they are non-electrolytic and thus avoid the phenomenon of hydrogen embrittlement which causes cracking of metals.
