Threadlockers From Loctite

Threadlockers from Loctite are a single component anaerobic adhesive comprised of unique liquid resins that harden (or cure) to a durable solid when exposed to metal ions in the absence of air. The anaerobic cure mechanism allows the adhesive to flow and evenly settle to lock and seal threaded fasteners without curing permanently. Any excess threadlocker will remain liquid, and is easily wiped away from the assembly. They are designed for the locking and sealing of threaded fasteners which require easy disassembly with standard hand tools. Threadlockers protects against vibrations, loosening, leakage and thread corrosion. Cures without cracking or shrinking. Resists lubricants, solvents and most chemicals. Locks, seals and retains nuts, bolts, screws, fittings and assemblies. Stops rust and corrosion.

Choosing the right threadlocker for your application:
