Outperform threaded fasteners and reduce costs with LOCTITE Threadlocker
Threaded assemblies fail because of loss of bolt tension. Factors such as improper torque and the exposure to vibration or thermal cycling can lead to assembly loosening.
Traditional fastening devices like washers and nuts leave gaps which allows self-loosening and corrosion.
Replace threaded fasteners with Loctite Threadlocker to ensure a uniform performance. Threadlockers keep vital components of your machines locked from the moment of installation.
Comparison chart of LOCTITE Threadlocker VS Double Locknut | |
| Locknut | Threadlocker |
|---|---|
| Time consuming to assemble | Fast assembly |
| Does not solve gaps and allows vibrational loosening | Fills all gaps preventing vibrational loosening and unitizes the assembly |
| Double nut – increase cost | Single nut – reduced cost |
| Corrodes in place | Seals against corrosion |
| Requires maintaining large inventory | Reduces inventory costs – one bottle for all thread sizes |
