COMMITTED TO INNOVATION
From its founding in 1953, based on the worlds first
anaerobic product that cured in the absence of air,
Loctite has achieved success through innovation.
An unrelenting commitment to continuous
research and development has resulted in the
most technically advanced range of industrial
maintenance products available today. Products
that increase equipment reliability, reduce costs and
improve quality throughout industry.
Here are some of our newest innovations featured
throughout this catalogue;

Loctite Sticks
The quality and performance
you trust in a new and more
convenient semi-solid stick
formula.

Threadlockers and Thread Sealants

Introducing the BEST EVER
Loctite 243 and Loctite 263.
Formulated to deliver best
performance on active and passive
metals, increased oil tolerance
and improved high-temperature
performance.
Also available is a new range of
innovative High Temperature Loctite Threadlockers;
Loctite 2422 Medium Strength & 2620 High
Strength High Temperature Threadlockers;
Loctite 5770 High Temperature Thread Sealant,
specially developed for high temperature
applications / settings.
Same Loctite Reliability Now, weve made them
even better!

Loctite Freeze & Release

These patented new stick
products offer greater flexibility
for tougher applications,
especially overhead, under or around machinery,
and on components that can not be moved. Theyre
compact, making them easy to carry from job to job
and easy to store in a tool box, tool belt or pocket.
The semi-solid formula means that they wont spill or
leak. Now available in an expanded range including
two threadlockers, a pipe sealant, an anti-seize, a
retaining compound and two gasketing products.

Loctite Reliability with a twist!

The solution for releasing seized or

corroded parts SHOCK FREEZE.
Loctite Freeze & Release instantly
chills seized and rusted parts (bolts,
nuts, studs). The exceptional shockfreeze effect causes microscopic
cracks in the layer of rust, allowing
the lubricating ingredient to wick directly into the
rust by capillary action. The assembly can be easily
dismantled after allowing 1-2 minutes reaction time.
Released parts remain lubricated and protected from
corrosion. (Refer to page 25 for more details).

Threadlocking

Threadlocking

Invented as a revolutionary method to lock and seal threaded fasteners, Loctite brand anaerobic
threadlockers have found wide acceptance in a range of applications from delicate electronic
components to heavy construction equipment. Loctite brand threadlockers are available in varying
viscosities and strengths for virtually any application, including exposure to extreme environments.

Features & Benefits

Prevents Loosening of Fasteners - Sets to a
thermoset plastic that fills microscopic gaps between
interfacing threads preventing any movement.
Seals Against Corrosion Seals the joint preventing
ingress of moisture and other corrosive gases,
chemicals and fluids.
Provides Correct Lubricity Lubrication properties
yield controlled torque tension curves - ideal for
assembly of equipment to specified torque values.
Controlled Strengths Available in varied controlled
strengths to suit all applications low, medium and
high.
Suitable for all Fastener Sizes Eliminates the need
to hold stock of expensive mechanical fasteners.
Easy to Apply Simply apply to the thread and
assemble. Excess will not cure and can be easily
wiped away.

Did You Know?

How does an Anaerobic Adhesive work?
Anaerobic adhesives are single-component materials
which cure at room temperature when deprived of
contact with oxygen. Curing begins when the two metal
parts are mated together and any adhesive outside of the
joint or thread remains liquid.
The capillary effect of the anaerobic liquid adhesive
carries it into even the smallest gaps to fill the joint. The
cured adhesive is then keyed to the surface roughness
of the parts forming a tough thermoset plastic, which
bonds the components and seals against moisture or
chemical attack.

Thread Sealing

Thread Sealing

Loctite brand liquid thread sealants seal and secure metal pipes and fittings, filling the space between
threaded metal parts and curing to prevent leakage. Designed for low and high pressure applications,
liquid thread sealants seal instantly for low pressure testing. When fully cured, they seal to the burst
strength of most piping systems.

Features & Benefits

Complete Seal Fills voids between threads creating
a 100% seal, preventing leakage caused by vibrational
loosening, temperature cycling, corrosion and extreme
pressures.
Locks & Seals in any Position Seals independent of
assembly torque allowing correct alignment of fittings.
Does Not Block Pipe System Uncured anaerobic
sealant is completely soluble in hydraulic fluid, diesel
oils, petrols and most industrial chemicals.
Instant Low Pressure Seal Suitable for immediate
operation or low pressure testing of newly sealed
threads.
Lubricates During Assembly Eliminates risk of overstressing fittings or castings, common with alternative
thread sealing methods.
Easy Application & Disassembly Simply apply
directly to the thread and assemble. Excess sealant
can be wiped away without solvents or chemicals.
Disassembled with hand tools.
Replaces most tapes and hemp/paste combinations.

Gasketing

Gasketing

Loctite brand Anaerobic and Silicone gasketing solutions are suitable for small and large gap flange
assemblies. Formed-in-place, they can be applied to any shape and offer improved seal reliability
compared to traditional pre-cut compression gaskets.

Features & Benefits

Anaerobic Gaskets
Loctite brand anaerobic gaskets remain liquid when
exposed to air, but cure when confined between
mating flanges. Anaerobic gasketing products are best
suited for small gap applications and rigid metal-tometal assemblies.
Features and Benefits;
No Shimming Effect - controlled tolerances, no
need for re-torqueing.
Fills all voids reducing the need for a fine surface
finish on flanges.
Does not shrink when cured.
Parts can be easily disassembled even after
extended service.
Resists high pressure when fully cured.

Silicone Sealants
Loctite brand silicone gasketing materials include
unique products with excellent fluid and high
temperature resistance. They are best suited for large
gap applications and stamped metal assemblies where
flange flexing occurs.
Features and Benefits;
High gap fill and flexibility.
High temperature and chemical resistance.

Did You Know?

What is a Formed-In-Place Gasket?
Formed-in-place gaskets are applied as a fluid sealant
to one of the flange surfaces before the parts are
assembled. When the parts are assembled the sealant
spreads between the flanges, filling gaps, voids,
scratches and surface irregularities.
After assembly the gasket cures and forms a
durable seal.
Formed-in-place gaskets eliminate the inventory expense
of stocking countless pre-cut gaskets.
How do you remove baked-on gasket material?
Loctite 790 Chisel Gasket Remover easily removes
pre-cut gasket cement and formed-in-place gaskets in
10-15 minutes. Simply spray on, then wipe or scrap off
residual gasketing material.
(Refer to page 31 for further details).

a metal locating pin to large diameter shaft bearings.
Seals Against Corrosion Seals the assembly
preventing ingress of moisture and other corrosive
gases, chemicals and fluids.
Replaces or Augments Mechanical Assemblies
-Reduces need for close tolerances, additional securing
components and elaborate assembly methods, therefore
reducing maintenance cost.
Controlled Strengths Available in high & moderate
strengths formulations to suit all applications. Parts can
be disassembled using regular processes.

Did You Know?

Interference fits typically have only 20-40% effective
contact area!
Typically the contact
area is limited to the
peaks left behind by
machining processes.
Micro-movement during
dynamic loading can
shear these away,
allowing the joint to fail.
Tightening the machining
tolerances to avoid
this is a very expensive
solution.
A Loctite anaerobic
retaining compound
assures 100% contact,
as well as eliminating
fretting corrosion within
the joint.

Anti-Seize Lubricants

Loctite brand Anti-Seize compounds are a range of premium quality products, developed to protect
metal parts from corrosion, galling and seizing. They ease assembly and disassembly of slip fit and
threaded joints, and reduce friction and wear. Formulated for severe environments, these products
protect against high temperatures up to 1315C, in conjunction with heavy loads and chemical
corrosion.

Features & Benefits

High Temperature Resistance Formulated with
high quality grease and solid lubricating agents for
optimal temperature resistance up to 1315C.
Reduces Friction & Wear Reduces metal-to-metal
contact resulting in less friction and wear.
Seals Against Corrosion Displaces and seals
against contact with moisture and other corrosive
liquids.
Metal Free Available For use in environments that
prohibit use of copper or where dissimilar metals are
used.
Convenient Packaging & Easy Use Available in
tubs, tubes, aerosols and the patented stick applicator.
Tubs include a brush attached to the lid for no-mess
application.

Did You Know?

Effective Anti-Seize lubricants increase assembly
strength!
An anti-seize lubricant used on a bolt helps to develop
greater clamp load for the same torque compared to an
unlubricated bolt. However care should be taken to avoid
over-stressing a bolt caused by excessive lubrication.
Loctite anti-seize products provide a controlled torque
coefficient which ensures consistent clamp load when
tightening.

Anti-Seize lubricants act as an Internal Galvaniser!

The use of an anti-seize product is an excellent method of
preventing galvanic corrosion, especially in hot, acidic, or
caustic environments. Anti-seizes resist galvanic attack by
sacrificing the metals in the anti-seize in preference to the
metal parts under protection.

Ten Points About Liquid Threadlockers

By Rick Skibba
Henkel Corporation, Rocky Hill, CT

olts, studs, set screws and other threaded fasteners

are the ties that bond industrial equipment
together. Considering that fastener loosening is a
leading cause of catastrophic failure in machinery,
maintaining proper clamping forces is an important
element in fastening effectiveness.
Liquid anaerobic threadlockers are an excellent method
of keeping fasteners firmly in place. Listed here are ten
points that plant personnel should know about using
liquid anaerobic threadlockers:

as little as 15% metal-tometal contact between the

thread of a nut and bolt. The
empty space leaves room
for movement that leads to
self-loosening and loss of
clamping force.

shock and vibration machines, liquid threadlockers

drastically outperformed mechanical devices (see
graph). Bolts secured with threadlocker retained nearly
all their clamping force after more than 1,000 cycles.
Mechanical devices began to fail almost immediately.

Better performance cost less. Mechanical

Its not just a bolt. The real

function of nuts and bolts is to
provide clamping force to hold
two components together. If
that clamping force decreases,
the fastener begins to slip,
and failure become inevitable.

locking methods are effective

to some degree, but are
difficult to justify based on
cost. A special nut or washer
can cost more than four time
as much as an application of
liquid threadlocker. Mechanical
devices also require extensive
and costly inventories to
keep the range of sizes on
hand. Three or four grades of
threadlocker easy to carry
and colour-coded, serve the
same purpose.

It will come out. All

threadlocked fasteners can
be disassembled. Different
grades of threadlockers can
be used depending on the
job. Fasteners secured with low and medium strength
grades can be removed with common hand tools.
Those secured with high strength grades can be
removed by applying heat for a specified time. (Refer to

In test on transverse shock and vibration machines,

liquid threadlockers drastically outperformed
mechanical locking devices

Side movement causes failure. Fasteners work

loose for complex reasons, but a key cause is sideways
movement. Bolted surfaces can slide sideways as a
result of thermal expansion, bending of the assembly,
impact or vibration. As this happens, the bolt takes
on a rocking motion that causes the threads to wear
against each other. In time, the bolt becomes almost
frictionless, and the threads can unwind.
Threadlockers stop all kinds of movement.
Liquid anaerobic threadlockers attack the root cause
of loosening by filling spaces between the threads.
The result is a secure, one-piece assembly that will not
loosen under stress.

Sealing stops corrosion. By sealing between

thread spaces, threadlockers keep out air and moisture
that can cause corrosion another common cause of
fastener failure. Because of their chemical resistance,
threadlockers seal effectively in contact with most
fluids, gases, and solvents used in industry. (Refer to Fluid

High Strength Disassembly guide - pg 38)

Threadlockers ease assembly and

disassembly. The thixotropic property of Loctite
anaerobics is conducive when applied to threads of
fasteners and fittings: they become less viscous when
put under stress (being shaken, stirred or dispensed)
and return to their original state when stress is removed.
When wet, threadlockers lubricate fasteners, allowing
proper, consistent assembly tightening and torque.
When cured in place, threadlockers stop corrosion, thus
preventing seizure and allowing for ease in disassembly.

There is no downside. Liquid threadlockers

are not just for certain specialized uses. They perform
effectively on fasteners and threaded assemblies of any
type and size, in any kind of equipment.

Loctite Threadlocker Saves

+$73,000 per Year

Maintaining Mine Production with Loctite

Retaining Compound

Situation:

Situation:

A large wood and lumber manufacturer was

experiencing mechanical failure and unscheduled
downtime due to fastener loosening on their limit
switch arms. Limit switches translate motion into switch
actuation. The maintenance department found the
screws were loosening in the arms, which allowed the
wand to fall out or become misaligned. A maintenance
person was assigned to tighten all the screws. This
task took about 5 to 10 minutes to complete and
occurred at least twice per shift. Each time the task
is completed, the equipment must be tagged out,
tightened and brought back on line. In one year, it was
found that over 91 hours had been spent on labor and
downtime.

Mine production depends on how quickly material can

be reclaimed and transported to the milling operation.
Any downtime may result in significant lost production,
therefore effective equipment maintenance is vital.

Solution:
Based on the advice of a Loctite Application Engineer,
the maintenance personnel of this manufacturer chose
Loctite 222 Threadlocker to remedy their limit switch
situation. Loctite 222 is applied before the fasteners
are assembled and is recommended for small fasteners
less than 6mm (1/4). Once cured, Loctite 222 has a
torque removal resistance of up to 14Nm and can be
easily disassembled with standard hand tools. It resists
vibration loosening and does not breakdown when in
contact with various shop chemicals.
Results:
Loctite 222 Threadlocker unitised the screws within
the assembly and prevented them from vibrating loose.
Since implementing this technique, the manufacturer
has saved over $73,000 of labor and downtime in just
one year.

A bucket loader at a large open mine site suffered from

regular failure caused by the extreme shock and impact
on the hinge arms and pin bearings. A shrink fit was
used to insert the hinge pin bearings into the hinge
arm, but surface imperfections on the bushing created
space which allowed for movement and corrosion.
Every time the hinge pin bearings pounded out the
housing, maintenance on the equipment was required.
Mine engineers needed to find a better way to secure
the hinge pin bearings into the hinge arm that would
increase in-service time for the bucket loader and so
consulted their Loctite Application Engineer.
Solution:
The worn hinges were machined to round and sized
0.1mm smaller than the sleeve overall diameter. All
surfaces were cleaned with Loctite 7070 ODC Free
Cleaner. After cooling the replacement sleeve, Loctite
680 was applied to the housing and the sleeve. The
sleeve was slid into place and allowed to cure for 24
hours.
Loctite 680 Retaining Compound is a mediumviscosity, fast curing retaining compound. It fixtures in
10 minutes at room temperature and provides a shear
strength of 19.3N/mm2 on steel.
Results:
Augmenting the shrink fit with Loctite 680 completely
filled any voids in the fit of the two parts. This added a
significant amount of strength to the final assembly and
sealed against corrosion, enabling the bucket loader to
stay in service longer.

Loctite Thread Sealant 5770 eliminates

leaks on Power Stations steam fittings

Saving Time & Money with Loctite

Anaerobic Gaskets

Situation:

Problem:

A coal Power Station with one steam driven turbo

generator, has a capacity of 150MW of electricity.
Steam fittings on the turbine intake were leaking due to
incorrect sealing methods and high temperatures. The
fittings had been previously sealed with PTFE tape or
sometimes even dry (without product), relying on rust
to seal the threads, to prevent steam loss.
The application can reach temperatures of 520C, with
the nominal temperatures around the steam fittings
at 215C and the main outlet of the secondary super
heater running at 300C at 11MPa.
In order to repair these leaks, the turbine has to be
shut down at significant cost to the Power Station
with large reduction of electricity output to the
grid. Additionally, the coal mine which feeds the
beneficiated, dewatered tailings of the Power Station,
could be shut down.

With over 100 gear boxes on this steel companys roll

line, maintenance is a costly expense. Replacement of
shear pins is frequent, making disassembly a regular
maintenance chore. The high vibration and heavy shock
loads experienced by the gear boxes loosen the bolts
which mount the housing. Cut gaskets were used to
seal the end bells, but leaks were a real problem.

Solution:
Following a review of relevant processes, the Henkel
Application Engineer recommended a Loctite product
specifically designed for locking and sealing metal
threads on pipes and fittings in high temperature and
high pressure applications Loctite 5770.
Prior to the application of the Loctite 5770, Loctite
7471 was used to prime the stainless steel fittings. This
ensured correct surface preparation on the inactive
metal, enabling a fast fixturing & cure, to minimize
downtime. Loctite 5770 is rated to a temperature of
280C based on a pressure of 6.6MPa and once cured
the product fills the mating thread, resisting loosening,
shock, vibration, shrinkage and heat, offering a long
term reliable seal.

Solution:
Better able to withstand vibration, liquid gaskets
provide a more precise and reliable seal than cut
gaskets. Loctite 515 Gasket Eliminator is now applied
to both front and rear bell housings of the gear boxes,
replacing cut gaskets. Loctite 515 Gasket Eliminator
is a general purpose anaerobic sealant primarily used
for making flexible gaskets.
Results:
Using Loctite 515 Gasket Eliminator instead of cut
gaskets provided many cost-cutting improvements for
our customer:
1. No need to carry stock of pre-cut gaskets. Loctite
Formed-in-Place Gaskets can be made to any size
or shape.
2. Downtime was significantly reduced due to fast
repair time. Loctite 515 is easy to apply and cures
to a low pressure seal within 30 minutes
3. Costly oil leakage and clean-up eliminated, saving
critical downtime and money.

Results:
By using Loctite 5770 on this assembly, the leaks
were completely eliminated. This prevented shutdown
not only of the turbine at the Power Station but also
the possible closure of the Coal mine, a saving of over
$10,000/hour.
The maintenance team has now realized the reliability
of Loctite sealants over the traditional PTFE thread
sealing tapes.
Loctite Formed-in-Place Gaskets
eliminate the expense of carrying
countless inventory of pre-cut gaskets
