LOCTITE® 603
Features and Benefits
Retaining compound designed for bonding cylindrical fitting parts, such as bearings, bushings, and shafts. Suitable for use where consistently clean surfaces can't be assured, such as parts lightly coated with cutting fluids or rust preventative oils.
If you can’t be sure the surfaces of your cylindrical fitting parts will always be clean, try LOCTITE® 603 high-strength retaining compound. It is capable of cutting through light coatings of oil on parts, such as cutting fluids and rust preventative oils. Its low viscosity makes it ideal for augmenting press / interference fits, or slip-fitted assemblies with small clearances. The high-strength adhesive reliably prevents loosening and leakage from shock and vibration on cylindrical parts, such as roller bearings or oil impregnated bushings into housings.
- High-strength retaining compound for cylindrical assemblies
- Perfect for bearings, bushings, and shafts
- Cures on lightly oiled surfaces
