When using stainless steel fasteners, it often happens that the internal and external threads seize up, making it impossible to unscrew the fastener. This can be prevented by using a paste, but that requires extra time and components. That is why Fabory has developed LUBRINOX®, a range of stainless steel fasteners with a special coating that ensures long-lasting lubrication in the threaded connection. LUBRINOX® ensures quick and efficient assembly, without getting your hands dirty!
Pre-lubricated bolts, screws and nuts
Lubrinox was tested by Geelen Counterflow. Due to its intensive use of stainless steel fasteners, the company was looking for a cost-effective alternative to lubricating bolts.
René Derckx, technical buyer at Geelen Counterflow: "We were curious whether the solution devised by Fabory would meet our requirements. The main premise was that screw threads don't get stuck. You don't want to have to cut or drill out a screw."
Another coating used by employees on Geelen Counterflow's shop floor is a lot thicker. Fabory's LUBRINOX fasteners do not need such a thick coating. That makes assembly a lot easier!
