NGI introduces certified hygienic bolts

EHEDG certified hygeinic bolts for use in sanitary production environments.

The focus on hygiene, the environment and production costs is increasing across industries. Imagine the possibility of minimizing the risk of contaminating your production equipment due to the fact that you have increased your focus on using hygienic components. NGI is now able to offer certified hygienic bolts with blue silicone sealings.The silicone seal blocks out water and bacteria and also prevents a non-hygienic metal-to-metal assembly.
The bolts have self-draining surfaces with a maximal roughness of 0.8 pm Ra. The design of the bolts does not deviate from the sizes of current standard bolts. Therefore, wrench sizes, thread heights etc. all remains the same making it very easy to upgrade and replace standard bolts. This is the right choice of bolts to be used on all machinery in all certified hygienic wash-down environments.
