Use and Properties
Thread locker for screws and nuts up to M36, and to seal
connections for fluids, medium strength.
It can be used on parts which have not been completely degreased
The hardening time depends on the temperature and the material
(maximum one hour):
Resistance to temperatures in the range -55 to 150° C (-131° F to
302° F).
High strength thread locker for screw threads.
The hardening time dipends on the temperature and the
material (maximum twelve hours).
Resistance to temperatures in the range -55 to 175° C (-131° F
to 347° F).
To remove nuts that have been fastened with Loctite 648, it may
be necessary to heat the assembled parts to a temperature of
250° C (482° F)
Solvent-free joint cement, to be used instead of gaskets where
components are held firmly together, and where a precise
distance is required between the two components.
Applied in its liquid state, it hardens after assembly on contact
with the metal within a few hours.
A seal is created whose surface structure adapts to the surfaces
to be sealed.
Resistance to temperatures in the range – 55 to 200 °C (from – -
131 to 392 °F); where applied, it seals the surfaces against
corrosion.
Paste to be used on components subjected to high
temperatures.
Lubricant and anticorrosive, resistant to high temperatures.
Sprayed on both components, it ensures low sliding friction and
it also prevents corrosion.
Lubricating grease, used on connections and bearings subject
to heavy loads, and to lubricate threads and connections which
are heavily torqued, in order to prevent corrosion, which would
prevent subsequent disassembly.
To be applied to both joining surfaces.
Acts as a sealant, used to prevent water from getting inside the
flywheel cover.
