Benefit of sealing compound discs from OldSchoolGarage.

Hello! Many guys ask how I'm sealing compound drives their Assembly. So I decided to add this post. Else why decided, seen the work of others and with familiar people and not everyone I liked the end result of their work. Short topic for those who need it! Usually the build I do with my assistant den otroha in this case, the result is better and faster. And so, for example, recent work with disks MAY Sonderrad.
1. The surface under the sealant to be prepared, it is desirable to specify risk 240 sandpaper, degrease. photos 1
2. Assembly of all parts of the disc and insert all the bolts, then najavljen nuts.
3, criss Cross twists can be on 2-3 opposite each other, so penny sat down. But not until the end! Leaving a gap in a circle about 2-3mm but no more, in order for there slightly went sealant. This will make the sealing more reliable.
4. Sticking the tape to have clear and smooth the seam sealer. Around leave place for sealant is 3 - 4mm from the edge of the iner and shelves. Usually there is a rim can be before it or at its discretion a little more. Photo -3
5. Use a red sealant temperature, a lot of different manufacturers. Again degrease. Apply gently with a small slide. Don't forget too much is not necessary, it will be difficult then it is evenly spread! Photo 4
6. After I applied the smeared neatly in a circle, trying to approach in one go from beginning to end, without stopping. If there is a lot of sealant, then walk a couple of times to remove an extra thumb. And then the finish to walk again. Do it quickly, the sealant tends to pull and can be not beautiful stitch if you stretch the time. Photo -5
7. After making a good seam, quickly remove the tape. Do this very carefully so as not to catch and not to spoil our beautiful stitch.
8. Tighten the other bolts fixing the drive. and save the disk for 24 hours to complete polymerization of the sealant.
This scheme I collect composite disks. Good luck with your build, if something is not clear I normally connected!
