APPLICATION Q&As
General Applications
Q: How can Loctite brand Adhesive/Sealants improve the quality of service repairs for my customers?
A: Quality service repairs with Loctite brand products do the following: 1. P revent fasteners from loosening. Use Loctite 242 Threadlocker Medium Strength liquid or Loctite QuickStix 248 Threadlocker. 2. Seal leaky threaded fittings. Use Loctite Low Breakloose PST Thread Sealant liquid or Loctite QuickStix 561 PST Pipe Sealant. 3. K eep bearings from spinning out. Use Loctite 609 Retaining Compound. 4. Restore fit between worn bearings, sleeves, gears, pulleys. Use Loctite 660 Quick Meta l Retaining Compound Press Fit Repair. 5. Seal flanged assemblies. Use Loctite Flexible or High Temperature Flange Sealant. Improve customer satisfaction with all of the above! Dont put your CSAs at risk with inferior performingproducts.
Q: How do these adhesive/sealants work?
A: Applied as a liquid or a paste, they automatically harden into a tough resin between metal threads or close-fitting parts. They lock and seal after assembly.
Q: Can I get the parts apart?
A: Yes. Use a little extra elbow grease and ordinary tools on fasteners. Use a bearing puller or a press for bearings or sleeves. Heating at 550F (288C) will help loosen parts. Take apart while hot.
Q: Can I re-use the parts?
A: Yes. Knock or blow off the loose particles and re-apply the adhesive/sealant. Material can be removed by wire brush, if necessary.
Q: How do I know which product to use?
A: Bottles or tubes are named to indicate usage. For example: Threadlocker indicates use on threadedfasteners.
Q: How do I clean the parts?
A: Four things that could have happened: 1. Sufficient material was not applied to fill the joint. 2. Insufficient time was allowed for cure. 3. Parts were excessively oily, dirty or greasy, which may prevent the adhesive/sealant from curing. 4. The surfaces required a primer before the adhesive/ sealant was applied.
Q: What should I do then?
29
A: Clean all parts thoroughly, using a wire wheel or a putty knife and a solvent. When all parts are clean and dry, apply Loctite 7649 Primer N. Let it dry, then apply the adhesive/sealant. Allow sufficient time to cure.
Q: Will hydraulic oil, motor oil, fuel or water dissolve the adhesive/sealant? A: No. These adhesive/sealants are solvent-resistant to all ordinary liquids and gases. Q: How do I apply adhesive/sealant? A: Simply apply from bottle nozzle or tube to one part. Apply sufficient amount to fill the gap between parts. An adhesive/sealant will not harden while in contact with air it hardens only in the joint after assembly. Q: What happens if I leave the cap off a bottle or tube of anaerobics (threadlocking, thread sealant, gasketing,retaining)? A: Nothing. It wont harden in the tube or bottle orevaporate.
A: Rigid flanges such as hydrostatic transmission flanges, flywheel housings and other rigid covers orplates. Use only where the change in joint thickness will not affect internal clearances.
Q: Where do I use Loctite Flexible Anaerobic Gasket Flange Sealant?
A: Its specified for sealing flywheel housings to the block on series 3114, 3116 and 3200 engines. It is also specified on differential steering systems on the D-6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 tractors.
Q: What do I use to seal track pins to track link bores which may be scratched, scored or rusted on sealed and lubricated track?
A: Loctite High Flex Form-In-Place Gasket has been successfully used in service to seal these worn parts. Coat both the pin and bore, then presstogether.
Q: Where can I use Loctite brand RTV Silicone Gasketing/Sealants?
Gasketing Applications
Q: How does Loctite High Temperature Flange Sealant work?
A: Use for applications where a highly flexible compound is needed for bonding, sealing, weatherproofing or gasketing. Typical applications are form-in-place gasketing at low pressures, caulking of sheet metal duct work, sealing of electrical boxes, insulating and sealing of electrical wires and terminals, and potting (except around electronic circuits). Use to insulate or seal metal, glass, ceramic, painted and enameled surfaces, and most plastics and rubber, including silicone rubber. Cured sealant will not accept standard paint.
Q: Where do I use Loctite 587 Blue, High Performance RTV Silicone Gasket Maker?
A: Loctite High Temperature Flange Sealant forms the gasket in place. When confined between the assembled flanges, the gel-like material automatically converts into a tough sealing gasket. It resists heat to 350F (177C). It also resists water, oil and solvents. One tube makes many sizes and shapes of gaskets.
Q: How do I apply Loctite High Temperature Flange Sealant?
A: A pply directly from the nozzle applicator on the tube. No mixing. No heat cure. For most joints, apply a 1 /16" (1.59 mm) diameter bead around the bolt holes and between the bolt holes centered on the flanges. Material does not cure until flanges are mated together. Be sure that the material will be in contact with both flanges when parts are assembled.
Q: Can I get the flanges apart?
A: Use as a general purpose silicone adhesive sealant. It is the best silicone for oil resistance, low odor, non-corrosiveness and low volatility. Suggested for salvage operation sealing on minor damaged flange surfaces at low pressures. Seals gear covers, oil pans, valve covers, transmission and PTO covers. Withstands temperatures to 400F(204C)continuous.
Q: What temperature will Loctite Superflex Red High Temp RTV withstand?
A: Loctite Superflex High Temp Red RTV bonds, seals, gaskets, caulks, pots and insulates on applications to 600F (316C). Use on applications that require maximum heat resistance. Suggested for engines, heat exchangers, air side of turbo chargers and aftercoolers. Also bonds insulation for hard-wrap.
A: For most flanged joints, it is not necessary to remove the cured material. Wipe off surface with a clean shop towel and apply a new bead, or if it is a very critical dimension joint, remove all residue by scraping with a putty knife or with a wire wheel. Then clean up with Loctite 7649 Primer N before reassembly.

APPLICATION Q&As
31
Threadlocking Applications
Q: How can I prevent rusting in between linkage pins and cartridge pins and the mating bores? A: Use Loctite 242 or QuickStix 248 Threadlocker to coat the pin and bore prior to assembly for a rustfree barrier. Applying Loctite 242 or QuickStix 248 Threadlocker eliminates the need for burning out pins on loader linkage arms, excavator sticks, and booms or similar assemblies. Q: Are there any performance differences between the new Loctite brand Thread Treatment Sticks (Loctite248 and Loctite 268) and the traditional Loctite brand Threadlocker liquids (Loctite 242 and Loctite 271)? A: No. Both of the new Loctite brand Thread Treatment Sticks were designed to maintain the exact performance characteristics of the liquid alternatives. Q: Is a primer, like Loctite 7649 Primer N, necessary when using threadlockers? A: If the parts are contaminated with dirt and grease, they should be cleaned with a primer in order to ensure optimal performance. Other alternatives are to utilize new threadlocking technology such as Loctite 243 Threadlocker Oil Resistant. When the metals are inactive, a primer should be used. Q: Which Loctite Threadlocker product is best suited for a high shock or vibration application? A: Loctite 271 Threadlocker High Strength is best suited for heavy equipment applications where shock or vibration are common, such as suspension bolts, motor, and pump mounts. Q: How do I disassemble parts? What is the procedure? A: Use standard hand tools for disassembly of low and medium strength threadlockers. For high strength threadlockers, apply localized heat to nut or stud for 5minutes at 450F (232C). Disassemble while hot. Q: What about preassembled fasteners? Is there a Loctite brand Threadlocker I can use to post-apply to the assembly? A: Yes. Loctite 290 Threadlocker Medium Strength is a wicking grade. This means that the Threadlocker can be applied to preassembled fasteners and the liquid will seep into the assembly to strengthen the fastener.
Bonding Applications
Q: On what bonding applications can I use the Loctite Fixmaster Fast Cure Epoxy?

RUSTPROOFING
LOCTITE EXTEND RUST TREATMENT
SURFACE PREPARATION OLD STEEL: Loose or flaky rust must be removed. Only conversion of firmly bonded rust will result in durable protection. Oil, grease, old paint, mill scale, form oil, fingerprints, water soluble surfaces and chlorides must be removed to allow Loctite Extend Rust Treatment to react with rust. Ideal surfaces will show light rust as well as bare metal surfaces. RUST CONVERSION TIME AND APPEARANCE: Two coats of Loctite Extend Rust Treatment are recommended.
The first coat should develop a purple-black color within seconds. The second coat should dry to a black color. The second coat should be applied within 15-30 minutes of the first coat. APPLICATION CONDITIONS: Loctite Extend Rust Treatment may be applied when surface and air are between 50F and 90F (10C and 32C). Reaction is slower at lower temperatures. If temperature is too hot, film may surface dry and bubble. High humidity is beneficial; it slows drying but assists rust conversion. Loctite Extend Rust Treatment should not be applied in conditions of condensing humidity (e.g., fog, dew), on ice, in rain or in heavy sea (salt) spray atmospheres. Steel surface may be damp but not wet (i.e., continuous visible film of water). DO NOT APPLY LOCTITE EXTEND Rust Treatment TO SURFACES IN DIRECTSUNLIGHT. APPLICATION EQUIPMENT METHODS: Loctite Extend Rust Treatment may be applied by brush, roller, or spray. Brush or roller is suitable for small areas. Avoid sags and ridges and keep edges wet by coating about a square yard at a time. Roll away from previously coated area and then roll back. Do not pour unused material back into the original container. NEVER add solvents to Loctite Extend Rust Treatment. Spray application is recommended for larger areas. Airless spray equipment is faster, and provides more effective conversion due to improved surface penetration. Conventional air-spray equipment may be used, but Loctite Extend Rust Treatment may require thinning up to 10% with water for proper spraying.
1. Remove old gasketing material and other heavy contaminants with Loctite Chisel Gasket Remover. Use mechanical removal technique ifrequired. Note: Avoid grinding. 2. Clean both flanges with parts cleaner. 3. Spray Loctite 7649 Primer N on only one surface. Allow 1-2 minutes to dry. 4. Apply a continuous bead of Loctite Gasket Eliminator Flange Sealant to the other surface. Note: Circle all bolt holes with sealant, if appropriate. Note: I mmediate assembly not required; however, avoid delays over 45 minutes. 5. Mate parts. Assemble and tighten as required.
6. Allow to cure: a. No pressure immediate service b. Low pressure (up to 500 psi) 30 to 45 minutes c. High pressure (500 to 2500 psi) 4 hours d. Extreme high pressure (2500 to 5000 psi) 24 hours

BONDING
INTRODUCTION TO BONDING ADHESIVES
Within the broad range of Loctite brand adhesives you will always find the solution to your bonding challenge. It is, however, extremely important to have at least basic knowledge of adhesive methodology in order to successfully bond two substrates together. The three major causes of bonding failures are attributed to:
BONDING
SURFACE PREPARATION
Abrasive Methods Rubbing or striking a surface with hard, coarse material. Abrasiveexamples: S anding: Rubbing with abrasive paper or cloth (for small area/superficial wear-down) B lasting: Striking with steel grit, sand, or other abrasive material (for large areas/deep wear-down) Chemical Methods Cleaning process that uses solvents to dissolve contaminants. Chemical examples: Solvent Dip: Immersing in solvent Solvent Wipe: Rubbing with solvent-soaked wipe Vapor Degreasing: Solvent in vapor form U ltrasonic Cleaning: Solvent dip method with high-frequency sound waves that vibrate the dirt away
Poor evaluation of the bonding assembly Inadequate substrate preparation Improper adhesive selection
BONDING ASSEMBLY
Bonding assembly has a direct impact in the adhesive performance. Choose a combination of types of joints or joint stress distribution that maximizes bonding strength. Below are different types of joints and stress distribution:
TYPES OF JOINTS
BUTT FAIR
OVERLAP GOOD
O-RING MAKING
CLEAVAGE/PEEL FAIR
TENSILE GOOD
SHEAR BETTER
COMPRESSIVE BEST
3. Cut the measured end of the cord stock with a clean razor blade. Ensure the cut is clean and square to optimize bond area. 4. Apply one drop of Loctite 404 Quick Set Instant Adhesive and mate the two ends of the cord stock.
