Fastener surface treatment
The Foreverbolt NL-19 treatment is an
advanced corrosion protection, developed
to reduce maintenance and repair costs.
The treatment modifies the surface of
stainless steel products, producing a
brighter finish, greater strength, and higher
corrosion resistance, but without affecting
the fastener’s exterior dimensions.
Company founder Patrick Vogel explained:
“Under normal conditions ordinary stainless
fasteners will corrode and fail, resulting in
unwanted replacement and maintenance
costs.
“The NL-19 treatment modifies the surface
of stainless steel fasteners in a way that
increases their corrosion resistance by
more than seven times. Not only were we
successful in preventing corrosion but after
treatment, the fasteners are 1.9 percent
stronger.”
ASTM B117 salt spray and hardness-tensile
test data for Foreverbolt’s NL-19 treated
products can be found at the company’s
website.
