New loctite threadlockers withstand high temperatures and cure without cleaning or priming

Article Type: New products From: Pigment & Resin Technology, Volume 39, Issue 4

Henkel Corporation has introduced two new Loctite threadlockers formulated to withstand consistent operating temperatures up to 360 F. Curing consistently and thoroughly without cleaning, these new products tolerate the oils and lubricants typically found on “as received” threaded fasteners. These products will also cure on plated, aluminum, stainless and chromated fasteners without primers.

Loctite 243 and 263 prevent fastener loosening caused by shock, vibration and temperature-induced expansion and contraction. Loctite 243 is a blue, medium-strength, thixotropic liquid threadlocker that can be disassembled using standard hand tools. Loctite 263) is a red, high-strength, thixotropic threadlocker for applications where permanent assembly is required. Both products provide a leakproof, corrosion-free seal of the threads.
