2. Thread-locking fluid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread-locking_fluid

   Bolts with thread-locking fluid applied. Thread-locking fluid or threadlocker is a single-component adhesive, applied to the threads of fasteners such as screws and bolts to prevent loosening, leakage, and corrosion. Most thread-locking formulas are methacrylate -based and rely on the electrochemical activity of a metal substrate to cause ...

3. Thread seal tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_seal_tape

   Thread seal tape (also known as PTFE tape, Teflon tape, or plumber's tape) is a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film tape commonly used in plumbing for sealing pipe threads. The tape is sold cut to specific widths and wound on a spool, making it easy to wind around pipe threads. Thread seal tape lubricates, allowing for a deeper seating of the ...

4. Bolted joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolted_joint

   The preload developed in a bolt is due to the applied torque and is a function of the bolt diameter, the geometry of the threads, and the coefficients of friction that exist in the threads and under the torqued bolt head or nut. The stiffness of the components clamped by the bolt has no relation to the preload that is developed by the torque.

5. Bonded seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonded_seal

   A bonded seal commonly seals between bolt head and body. In mechanical engineering, a bonded seal is a type of washer used to provide a seal around a screw or bolt. Originally made by Dowty Group, they are also known as Dowty seals or Dowty washers. [1] Now widely manufactured, they are available in a range of standard sizes and materials [2][3][4]

6. Screw thread - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_thread

   A screw thread is a ridge wrapped around a cylinder or cone in the form of a helix, with the former being called a straight thread and the latter called a tapered thread. A screw thread is the essential feature of the screw as a simple machine and also as a threaded fastener. The mechanical advantage of a screw thread depends on its lead, which ...

7. Gasket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasket

   Some seals and gaskets. 1. o-ring. 2. fiber washer. 3. paper gasket. 4. cylinder head gasket. A gasket is a mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression. It is a deformable material that is used to create a static seal and maintain ...

8. Pipe dope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_dope

   Pipe dope. Pipe dope is any thread lubricant, thread sealing compound, or anaerobic chemical sealant that is used to make a pipe thread joint leakproof and pressure tight. [1] It is also referred to as "thread compound" or "pipe thread sealant." [2] Although common pipe threads are tapered and therefore will achieve an interference fit during ...
