No Cleaning Or Priming With These High-Temp Threadlockers

Henkel offers two new Loctite® threadlockers that withstand consistent operating temperatures up to 360 F. Curing consistently and thoroughly without cleaning, they tolerate oils and lubricants typically found on "as received" threaded fasteners. They also cure without primers on plated, aluminum, stainless and chromated fasteners. Loctite 243™ is a medium-strength threadlocker that can be disassembled using standard hand tools. Loctite 263™ is a high-strength product for applications where permanent assembly is required. Both products provide a leakproof, corrosion-free seal, and prevent fastener loosening due to temperature-induced expansion and contraction.

MALMTmark3Motor Brakes With Oil Shear Technology

According to Force Control Industries, the company's MagnaShear motor brake with oil shear technology stands up well in a range of demanding applications. Proven oil shear technology offers a number of benefits: It transmits torque between lubricated surfaces, thus eliminating wear on friction surfaces. A patented fluid recirculation system dissipates heat, a common problem in dry braking systems. The technology also provides a smooth "cushioned" stop that reduces shock to the drive system. These motor brakes are well suited for operations where a motor is reversed each cycle, including loader/unloader conveyors, pallet-return conveyors, pallet turnover, load spade assembly and unloader assembly.

Continuous Thermal-Fluid/Hot-Oil Filtration For Asphalt Plants

Liquid Process Systems' patented Vector Series Model VB10C Thermal Fluid Filtration System was developed specifically for hot- and warm-mix asphalt and associated plants. According to the manufacturer, it continuously filters contaminants on a side-stream basis down to 10 microns. System flow and pressure available from the plant process is used to recirculate thermal fluid or hot oil from the pump discharge through the filter. Clean fluid is then returned to the suction side of the pump.
