Threadlockers

Threadlocking adhesives

Loctite is a high-strength threadlocker for maximum efficacy in the securing and sealing of bolts, nuts and studs to prevent loosening due to vibration. Loctite serves to permanently lock assemblies which must not come loose.

Loctite threadlockers

Henkel threadlocking fluids can used to seal (lock) fastener assemblies together to prevent accidental loosening of fasteners over time. To use thread locking glue with fasteners, a small amount of the adhesive should be placed on the threading of a bolt where the nut is going to rest prior to installation. Once dry, the adhesive forms a bond that will hold the fastener assembly in place even when exposed to constant vibration. We offer the following Loctite threadlockers

Loctite 243 threadlocker

Blue Loctite 243 is a general purpose thread locking fluid of medium bond strength. Threadlocker blue secures and seal bolts, nuts and studs to prevent loosening due to vibration. The product works on all metals, including passive substrates such as stainless steel, aluminium and plated surfaces. It is proven to be tolerant of minor contamination due to industrial oils, e.g. engine oils, corrosion prevention oils and cutting fluids. 

  • Permits disassembly with hand tools
  • Proven to tolerate minor contamination by industrial oils, e.g. engine oils, corrosion prevention oils and cutting fluids
  • Works on all metals, including passive substrates (e.g. stainless steel, aluminium, plated surfaces)
