BONDERITE® S-FN 8301

BONDERITE® S-FN 8301 is designed for lubricant applications where environmental regulations restrict emissions of VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds). BONDERITE® S-FN 8301 provides good wear, low coefficient of friction, solvent resistance, and resistance to chalking in UV exposure. After dip or spray application, BONDERITE® S-FN 8301 can be either air dried or forced dried with heat. This superior coating material offers lifetime lubrication for heat-sensitive substrates, complex machined precision steel parts, light metals (copper, aluminum), and some non-metallic materials.

  • Usage Information
    • Surface Preparation
      • Substrates should be clean and dry. A chemical rinse or sandblast is usually sufficient to key the surface properly. However, if maximum adhesion is required, the combination of cleaning and surface pre-treatment by mechanical or chemical means is essential. Suggested methods of pre-treatment for maximum adhesion are as follows:
        • Steel : degrease, sand or vapor blast and/or phosphate coat
        • Stainless steel : degrease, sand or vapor blast
        • Copper alloys : degrease, sand or vapor blast, dilute nitric acid drip, water rinse
        • Aluminum : degrease, sand or vapor blast
        • Rubber : degrease, using appropriate solvent
        • Plastics : degrease, using appropriate solvent and/or light sanding
    • Mixing
      • Stir to re-disperse solids that may have settled during storage. Avoid vigorous stirring which causes foaming. If dilution is necessary, blend four parts by weight BONDERITE® S-FN 8301 with one part by weight deionized water. If parts are to be dip coated, dilution may be necessary.
    • Application
      • Use an external atomizing spray gun with 35 to 50 psi (2-4 metric atmospheres) air pressure and adjust the gun to give a well-atomized spray. For optimum performance, the final coating thickness should be 0.0003-0.0007 inches (8-18 microns). When properly applied, the coating will be even and free of runs, blisters, or “fish eyes.” Close observation of color density will guide the experienced spray gun operator in obtaining even coverage.
    • Spray
      • Spray at 40 psi with fluid adjustment screw open 1/3 of a turn. Four passes yield a dry film thickness of 0.3-0.5 mils. Do not let material dry at gun tip. Keep material circulating at all times to avoid settling.
    • Dip
      • If coating thickness is too heavy when parts are coated at room temperature, dilute 10% with deionized water. If more than one coat is required, set coating 5 minutes at 93°C between dips.
    • Cleanup
      • Use water or alcohol/water blend. Dried coating may be cleaned with N-methyl-pyrrolidone.
    • Drying
      • Product can be air dried within 1-3 hours. Forced drying 10 minutes at 93-149°C is also possible.
