Able to equip an entire workshop
Wurth products are recognized for their quality. They are all carried out in Europe. For the marine sector we will find chemicals (glues, seals, lubricants...), abrasives, stainless steel screws, user protection (PPE), tools, cutting tools, fittings, equipment for electricians (cable lugs, thermal sheath...), workshop storage solutions..
To understand the quality of the products manufactured by Wurth, here is a focus of 6 chemicals that will have a great use on our boats.
Super RTV Silicone Sealant
This product is a joint compound that supports engine oil, transmission oil, coolant and antifreeze. It will be used by mechanics to seal oil pans and inverters. Available in a compressed air aerosol, this product can be applied with a thin bead without additional tools.
Spray for contacts
In the marine environment, electrical connections are often a concern. To solve contact problems, this spray must be sprayed on the ignition cable, valve plugs and connectors. In addition to the mechanics, it can also be used for all electrical connections on board.
Lubricant HHS 5000
At sea, fat does not mix well with salt water. It is better to use PTFE lubricants such as HHS 5000 water-insoluble, which is resistant to salt water, and even acids and other industrial detergents. This product has no chemical aggression against plastics, lacquered paints or even joints. It can therefore be used on all the fittings of a boat for example (carts, slides, blocker...).
Marine Grease
The semi-synthetic PTFE-based marine grease will be perfect for greasing mechanical parts that are subjected to heavy loads and can receive seawater. For example, the transmission cables of an outboard motor or the gears of a winch.
Rost-Off Plus Degreaser
With exceptional capillarity, this anti-seize penetrates well into rust and completely eliminates it. In addition, this product lubricates by smoothing metal surfaces. It is a long-term protection against corrosion.
Stop High-strength net
Fluorescent green in colour, this thread stop is clearly visible on the screws. It locks all the nuts after a few minutes. Mechanics appreciate it for all mechanical assemblies subject to vibration.
