High-Temperature Threadlockers

Keep threaded fasteners from loosening at temperatures up to 450° F. These threadlockers begin to harden once coated surfaces are threaded together and exposure to air is blocked.
Primer (sold separately) cleans the surface and decreases the time to reach full strength. It is recommended when working with aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium; black-oxide finishes, and cadmium and zinc coatings.
Threadlockers with medium locking strength require a hand tool to unthread.

Reusable Threadlockers


These threadlockers hold securely but stay flexible, so fasteners can be adjusted, removed, or reused. They cure at room temperature.

Primers for Threadlockers, Retaining Compounds, and Acrylic Adhesives

To speed cure time on coated fasteners, aluminum, stainless steel, or titanium, apply these primers before using threadlocker or retaining compound. They also work with no-mix acrylic adhesives.

Retaining Compounds for Oily Close-Fitting Parts

Even on oily surfaces, these retaining compounds keep their hold. Use them to fill gaps up to 0.015" to secure worn cylindrical metal parts such as shafts, bearings, and press-fit assemblies. These retaining compounds begin to harden once coated surfaces are pressed together, blocking exposure to air.
Primer (sold separately) cleans the surface and decreases the time to reach full strength. It is recommended when working with aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium; black-oxide finishes, and cadmium and zinc coatings.
Compounds with low locking strength prevent threads from loosening due to vibration and can be adjusted without tools.
Compounds with high locking strength require both heat and a hand tool to unthread.
