Inlex Locking (Inlex) has secured a new exclusive partnership with Nylok, covering Nylok’s Tuflok®, NySeal® and NySeal 2.0® patching systems across the UK, Poland and the Czech Republic.
The partnership will enable Inlex to become the only UK company to hold the Nylok license. Inlex will apply some of Nylok’s most popular and innovative solutions on specialist machinery at its Wolverhampton facilities.
The license also allows for the products to be used by Inlex’s sister companies Anocote Czech Republic and Anocote Polska. Inlex is part of the Anochrome Group.
“We are delighted to have secured this exclusive partnership with Nylok, one of the most respected names in the advanced patching world. For customers looking to keep their fasteners safely in position, Nylok systems are the ideal choice for critical applications,” said Kev Walton, Group Thread locking, Sealing & Purchasing Director at Inlex.
Tuflok®, also known as Nylon Blue Patch, is a polyamide locking product and is used in a variety of applications where adjustment during assembly or end use is required. It is reusable up to five times and creates a resistance to vibration and loosening.
Meanwhile, NySeal® creates a gasket-type seal, preventing leakage of fluids and gases under pressure. The coating is permanently fused on the bearing surface of the fastener.
NySeal 2.0® is an underhead sealant. It is durable and meets sealing requirements after multiple installations. It also allows for a more consistent tightening strategy since the material does not squeeze out of the joint.
