– Intense blue colour offers well-contrasted picture
– Good adhesion allows long-term monitoring
– Simple and accurate spray application

Description

Klübertop P 39-462 Spray is an air-drying paint for the inspection of contact patterns on gear tooth flanks. It contains an inorganic binder and organic solvents. Since Klübertop P 39-462 Spray is resistant against gear lubricants based on polyglycol, PAO, ester and mineral oil, it can be used for checking and adjusting contact patterns on tooth flanks without problems. The inspection paint is pigmented in intense blue, so it provides a distinct contrast against the bright metallic flank surfaces. Klübertop P 39-462 Spray offers good adhesion to clean tooth flanks, so it can be used to monitor the contact pattern over an extended period of time in the –40 °C to 200 °C temperature range. Being a spray, the product can be applied to the tooth flank surfaces exactly where needed.

Application

Klübertop P 39-462 Spray is used to check the load-bearing patterns of meshing gears.

Application notes

Pretreatment of surfaces

The tooth flank surfaces to be inspected should be thoroughly cleaned from oil, grease or other residues using a suitable cleaning agent.

Applying the paint

Shake Klübertop P 39-462 Spray well before use. Ensure sufficient ventilation during application as explosive mixtures may form. Upon spraying, allow sufficient time for the solvent to evaporate. Do not spray towards naked flame, or hot or incandescent objects. Please note additional application instructions in the material safety data sheet and the can label. Klübertop P 39-462 Spray should not be applied to tooth flanks having a temperature below 5 °C. Best results are achieved at flank temperatures between 15 °C and 25 °C. The inspection paint should be sprayed onto the tooth flanks in axial direction to form a thin, even layer. Avoid bubbles, drops or other forms of unevenness. Do not spray over the surface more than once, as thicker layers tend to become brittle. After application, turn can upside down and spray again to clear nozzle.

Drying

Sufficient ventilation and a temperature of 20 to 25 °C provided, Klübertop P 39-462 Spray will be dry to the touch after approx. 5 min, and fully hardened after approx. 30 min. A hot air fan can be used to speed up drying on the tooth flanks. Inspection of load-bearing pattern Rotating the set of gears once without a suitable test load will not suffice to obtain a picture of the gear’s load-bearing pattern. A minimum of 500 rotations under medium to full load is necessary.

Cleaning

The solvent and cleaning agent Solutin C 9 may be used to clean the gears from Klübertop P 39-462 Spray
