Fatigue strength of a TOX Joint

Fatigue strength under the most adverse conditions

Corrosion tests have shown that because the surface coating is not damaged during the round joint process, the anti-corrosive properties of the joined sheet metals, e.g., aluminized or galvanized, are maintained. The TOX joining system does not cut the surface of the materials to be joined, as the coating flows with the material and remains intact.

Higher dynamic strength than in spot welding.
Advantageous dynamic strength without notch effect in the joint - this means: the life of the TOX Round Joint lasts much longer than that of a weld point.

The TOX Joint in customer test

Results of endurance tests for samples with TOX Round Joints and spot welds. The joints were exposed to an initial load of 1 kN and a frequency of approximately 35 Hz. The fatigue life of the joint was measured until failure.
