BONDERITE® S-FN 330

BONDERITE® S-FN 330 ACHESON offers clean, dry, long lasting, solvent resistant lubrication for sliding, rubbing or rolling surfaces. BONDERITE® S-FN 330 ACHESON is a resin-bonded PTFE lubricant supplied as one component in ready-for-use form. Its low temperature cure of 50°C (300°F) does not affect heat-sensitive substrates such as light metals, wood, rubber and some plastics. The extremely thin coating of BONDERITE® S-FN 330 ACHESON necessary to achieve maximum lubrication (from 0.0003 to 0.0007 inch, or 0.008 to 0.018 millimeter) allows post-treatment of parts while maintaining original part dimensions without redesign. In many cases, BONDERITE® S-FN 330 ACHESON coating can replace metal plating or finishing and offers improved performance at lower cost.

    • Surface Preparation
      • For maximum resistance to wear, corrosion and abrasion, the following procedures are recommended:
      • Steel: Degrease, grit blast, and/or chemically pretreat with Bonderite M-ZN 20 (know as Granodine 20),
      • Bonderite M-MN 2 (known as Lubrite 2), or equivalent
      • Stainless Steel: Degrease grit blast.
      • Aluminum: Degrease, pretreat with Bonderite M-CR 1200S (known as Alodine 1200S) or equivalent, anodize.
    • Mixing
      • BONDERITE® S-FN 330 ACHESON can be spray applied undiluted. However, to obtain maximum smoothness, dilute the product with Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) or BONDERITE L-FG SB-2 ACHESON (known as Henkel solvent SB-2) in the ratio of three parts product (by weight) to one part solvent. If parts are to be dipped, a 3:2 (product:solvent) weight ratio is recommended. If dip-spin equipment is used, adjust the product to 20- 30 seconds on a #2 Zahn cup (neat product may already be in this range).
    • Application
      • Use an external-atomizing spray gun with 35 to 50 psi air pressure and adjust the gun to give a well-atomized spray. For optimum performance, the final coating thickness should be 0.0003-0.0010 inches (0.008 to 0.025 millimeters). When properly applied, the coating will be even and free of runs, blisters, or "fish eyes." Some electrostatic spray systems may be used to apply BONDERITE® S-FN 330 ACHESON. Contact our Specialty Coatings Business Group's Technical Service Department for details.
      • BONDERITE® S-FN 330 ACHESON can also be applied by dipping. The product should be diluted 3:2 (product: solvent) by weight with MEK. The average dip coating will produce a heavier coat, but a pre- cure of ten minutes at 121° to 135°C (250° to 275°F) or one minute at 177°C (350°F) is required between dips. Dip- spin will require two or three coats. A partial cure of one minute at 177°C (350°F) is required between coats.
    • Curing
      • BONDERITE® S-FN 330 ACHESON must be air-dried to the touch (2-5 minutes) before being placed in the curing oven. For optimum corrosion and wear resistance, cure the coating for one hour at 160°C (325°F) in an air-circulating oven or under infrared lamps. Acceptable cure cycles include one hour at 150°C (300°F), 10 minutes at 175°C (350°F), 8 minutes at 204°C (400°F), or 5 minutes at 260°C (500°F). Note that as cure temperature increases, cure time becomes more critical. Degree of cure may be monitored by the color of the oating. As the cure progresses, the coating will gradually change in color from light blue to dark green. Cured coatings can only be removed by sandblasting or applying strong caustic solutions.
