VERFAHREN ZUM AUFBRINGEN EINER SELBSTSICHERNDEN SPERRSCHICHT AUF EINE GEWINDEFLAECHE

摘要

The improved method of making a self-locking threaded element having a strongly adhered plastic body on its threaded surface providing strong frictional engagement between the element and a mating threaded surface in which fine particles of heat softenable plastic are applied against a heated threaded surface in a plurality of spaced successive portions in time and temperature controlled relation such that a first portion is softened by heat prior to application of a successive portion of the particles to aid in holding particles of successive portions to enable manufacture at a higher rate and/or at lower temperatures than heretofore practicable.
