NANOGALV®

Dan-Loc Group has partnered with Modumetal to become the premier distributer of NanoGalv® coated products. Dan-Loc Group’s Houston and Louisiana branches have over $2.5 million in stocked B7 all-thread studs and 2H Heavy Hex nuts for common ANSI B16.5 flanges. We are your first call, only-call source for NanoGalv® and other threaded products.

What is NanoGalv®?

A coating system designed for corrosive and high-strength applications. NanoGalv® can be used as a drop‐in replacement for cadmium, conventional galvanize, epoxy, and PTFE coatings. NanoGalv® has undergone extensive testing and field trials for fasteners and connectors and is currently in commercial use in offshore platforms and other coastal facilities.

• Process is very similar to conventional Zinc Nickel electroplating and existing lines can be retrofitted with Modumetal’s nanolamination process
• Nanolamination uses precision waveform technology that causes metal ions to bond together in layers
• Nanolayers impede the path of corrosion to create unprecedented performance in environmental resistance and durability

Proven Performance.

Since initial specification in 2018, Modumetal’s NanoGalv® has been specified by all the oil & gas supermajors and has been deployed in the field for years with far superior corrosion performance than the closest comparable coatings See NanoGalv® in action.

TUFFCOR

There are coated bolts out there that offer some level of corrosion protection. Then there’s TuffCor – a Dan-Loc innovation that raises the standard for corrosion resistance. TuffCor bolts are engineered to survive corrosive environments that readily destroy commodity bolts, and even “premium” coated bolts.

With the productivity demands you face, dealing with all the maintenance required by standard coated bolts is the last thing you want weighing on your mind, and on your schedule. We couldn’t agree more. That’s the reason we created TuffCor. It’s specially engineered to resist corrosion and delay routine maintenance for much longer periods than other bolts allow. In an industry that’s defined by the term “time is money” a product like this doesn’t just bolt up your structure, it tightens up your operation.

PUT TO THE TEST.

In an independent test simulating offshore conditions common to operating in the Gulf of Mexico, TuffCor went up against a range of commonly specified bolts. TuffCor barely showed a blemish at 5,000 hours. The other bolts didn’t even come close. LOW MAINTENANCE IS BEAUTIFUL.

TuffCor bolts look good – on your worksite and on your maintenance records. There’s no rust bleed that you have to constantly paint over, so your site maintains a cleaner appearance on its own, freeing your maintenance crew for other tasks. Superior corrosion resistance also keeps the threads clean and smooth. Even after long installed periods, the nuts break out fast and easy without excessive torque or cutting. So you’re not faced with firing up a torch in places where flames really shouldn’t be. All in all, your crews gain efficiency and safety, while you lower your maintenance costs. Those are all beautiful things.

IT’S TIME TO GET TOUGH

When you specify bolts, specify your desire to save time and money. Go with the one bolt that has proven its superiority in the test lab and in the real world. That’s TuffCor from Dan-Loc.

ZCOR CORROSION BARRIER

Zcor uses zinc as its principle sacrificial corrosion barrier and meets environmental protocols of virtually all countries, including the European Union’s RoHS.

Buyers of Zcor can depend on it to exceed 2,000 hours routinely in an ASTM B117 salt spray test. ZCor provides exceptional performance while being an environmentally friendly, reliable product. ZCor is an excellent alternative when cadmium plating is not allowed.
