Integrity
of the Xmultiple Sealant Coating in Use
Physical integrity of the Xmultiple chemical coating sealant
is an excellent chemical barrier for harsh properties
in most applications. For instance, metal chemical coatings
are impellers which used in cold and warm conditions and
provide good protection from outdoor connections of the
connector contact pins. The chemical coating sealant is
made to protect from specific environments, including
thermal conditions.
Sealant Metal Coating Properties
One
of the most common and inexpensive protection methods
for metal is provided by metal coating with chemical sealant
properties. The sealant coating is produced by hot-dipping
techniques. The Xmultiple chemical sealant works as a
barrier metal coating and as a protective metal coating
to prevent oxidation. If the chemical coating sealant
is scratched or penetrated, it continues to provide protection
by its penetrating action until the chemical sealant layer
is depleted. This sacrificial action also prevents corrosion
around pitted contact pin holes and rough edges.
Listed
below are frequently asked question regarding Gel application
and use.
How
often does this Gel have to be re-applied?
Answer:
The number of times plugs are inserted will determine
the number of times gel must be applied. If the gel is
applied and the male plug is inserted, you will never
have to reapply the gel again until 2 years or more of
service. This is under normal usage conditions in a protected
environment. If multiple insertions occur you will have
to reapply the gel with each insertion. This is our recommendation
however this gel is design to not run, drip or evaporate,
so this is not absolutely required to reapply gel and
the determination must be made by the user.
How many insertions of the male
jack can there be before the Gel needs to be re-applied?
Answered
above.
What is the recommended best practices for applying
the Gel?
Answer:
The 3oz tube was designed to make the application of the
gel easy for the user. The gel is applied directly from
the tube into the female connector. A small drop inserted
on the contact pins inside the female is all that is required.
The male plug is then inserted into the connector.
Could we potentially apply this to our jacks in
the manufacturing process?
Answer:
Yes, Users can have the Gel applied during the assembly
process of their products.
The
answer is also "Yes" if Xmultiple applies the
Gel during our process of manufacturing a connector for
a customer. However, if Xmultiple applies the Gel during
our manufacturing of a connector the cost of the Gel inserted
into the jacks during the manufacturing increases the
pricing and has a minimum order quantity.
