*This chart is for general practice purposes only and should not be in the engineering or design of any products. The most current edition of the API specification may be obtained on the API Standards website to make sure you have the most current edition of API 6A. For most the accurate references in critical situations torque values should be replaced with field measured tension values. Accurate stud tension is difficult to attain using torque, because friction has a significant effect on the torquetension relationship. Any thread damage (however minor), additional lubrication, or standard deviations within the range can change friction and thereby the expected outcome.

Xylan Coated Bolts

February 19, 2010 by Sigma Fasteners Leave a Comment

Coated Stud Bolts Xylan Coated Stud Bolts Xylan 1010, 1070, 1014, 1052 and now 1424 have been used as bolt coatings for almost a quarter century now. Most major Oil and Chemical Companies recognizing that maintenance is a huge issue have made coated bolt specifications for bolted high pressure flange connections. The various properties on the Xylan give excellent make up and brake out torque and reduce the need for high risk cutting torches or high cost bolt cutting when maintenance is required. Xylan 1014 in bolt coatings used for its good lubricity, chemical and abrasion resistance. Xylan 1052 for coated bolts used for its excellent lubricity. Xylan 1070 and 1010 where the pioneers in the field used for the lubricity and chemical inertness. With VOCs an ever present issue these days Whitford has made a low VOC version 1424 which Sigma applies to achieve the results need in a coated bolt connection and to stay complaint in a green economy.

Xylan coated bolts come in many tints and the coated bolts are often coordinated with standard corporate color branding schemes. While very light shades are possible most of the popular hues range from a Dark Yellow to black with Reds and Blues and greens being the most widespread.

Xylan Coating
February 6, 2010 by Sigma Fasteners Leave a Comment

Xylan Industrial Coating Service

Xylan coating prevents leaks past thread Pressure vessels, valves, pipe unions, storage tanks, reactors, pipelines and other fluid containment equipment are often fitted with threaded plugs for inspection, pressure relief, filling or tapping. Coatings on pipe plugs not only improve their performance and reliability but also make them easier to use. A thin film of Xylan eliminates the PTFE tape normally wrapped around the threads to seal them. In addition, the corrosion protection and low-friction properties of the coating greatly reduce breakout torques, enabling users to remove the plugs at a later date without destroying them. In most instances, the pipe plugs may be re-used without difficulty. Xylan coatings are also available in many colors, enabling users to color-code particular plug sizes and alloys.

Xylan 1014
Main Properties: High temperature resistant. Low coefficient of friction. Abrasion / wear resistant. Dry film lubricant. Thermoset. Wide use temperature. Typical Applications: Any mating surface which requires lubrication. Hinge pins. Piston casing. Compressors. Fasteners. Description: Resin-bonded, thermosetting, dry-film lubricant which, when compared to Xylan 1010 contains significantly more bonding resin relative to its content of PTFE lubricant. Altering the formula in this manner produces finishes which are harder, more abrasion resistant, glossier, and less porous. Frictional values remain low and very predictable. Working temp. range (continuous) -195C/-320F to 260/500F Working temp. range (intermittent) -195C/-320F to 285C/545F

Xylan 1052
Main Properties: High temperature resistant. High load carrying capacity. Abrasion / wear resistant. Thermoset.

Typical Applications: Applications to prevent wear of mating surfaces under extreme load such as bearings, sealing rings, and valve springs. Main Properties: High temperature resistant. Low coefficient of friction. Abrasion / wear resistant. Thermoset. Wide use temperature. Corrosion resistant. Controlled torque. Typical Applications: Threaded fasteners. Description: Resin-bonded, thermosetting, dry film lubricant. It is formulated for high-pressure, low-speed wear applications and provides long-term lubrication for bearing surfaces subjected to extreme pressures, up to 150,000 psi (10,500 kg/cm2). The coating utilizes a unique dual lubrication system of PTFE and MoS2 and is superior to moly greases which wash away and PTFE coatings which cold flow. Resin-bonded lubricants in Xylan 1052 stay on the job, even in harsh chemical environments. Working temp. range (continuous) -195C/-320F to 260C/500F Working temp. range (intermittent) -195C/-320F to 285C/545F

Xylan 1070
Main Properties: High temperature resistant. Low coefficient of friction. Abrasion / wear resistant. Thermoset. Wide use temperature. Corrosion resistant. Controlled torque. Typical Applications: Threaded fasteners. Description: Resin-bonded, thermosetting, PTFE based, dry-film lubricant. It has extra corrosion protection and issued to coat large studs (B7), nuts, flanges, and related hardware for sub-sea and splash-zone service. Because of its predictable, low-friction properties, less make-up torque is required to produce the specified tension. During assembly, clamp loads are increased; scatter is reduced. In fact, the frictional characteristics are the most predictable of any lubricant, coating, or plating used on bolting. The low friction properties also reduce break-out torque, which allows removal of bolting with a wrench instead of a blowtorch. Application: Conventional spray. Working temp. range (continuous) -195C/-320F to 260C/500F Working temp. range (intermittent) -195C/-320F to 285C/545F

Xylan 1400
Main Properties: Corrosion resistant. Chemical resistant. Weathering resistant. Acid rain resistant. Typical Applications: Threaded fasteners for the building, chemical process, oil and off shore industries. Description: A recoatable RC coating developed to protect large fasteners and chemical processing equipment from chemical exposure (especially those with high pH). Although it contains a small percentage of PTFE lubricant to facilitate installation and prevent galling, it is considered a barrier coating rather than a dry film lubricant.

Xylan 1424
Main Properties: Dry film lubricant. Corrosion resistant. Typical Applications: Any mating surface which requires lubrication. Hinge pins. Piston casing. Compressors. Threaded fasteners. Description: This VOC compliant*, resin-bonded, PTFE based coating is primarily formulated for use on fasteners to prevent corrosion and facilitate make-up torque.

Coated Bolts
February 6, 2010 by Sigma Fasteners Leave a Comment Sigma Fasteners manufacturers coated studs to meet major Chemical and Oil Company standards. Sizes range from 1/2 inch 3 1/2 and larger.

Coated Stud Bolts Sigma coated bolts have a two-layer structure of special pretreatment polymer film and under-treatment layer. Phosphate Pre-treatment technique insures the physical performance of product without changing and fluropolymer top coating results in a better performance in resisting chemical and seawater corrosion. SermaGard coating is different from PTFE because of their strong corrosion resistant ability. Xylan can be different per customers request to meet various environmental working conditions.
