LOCTITE® LB 8040

Known as LOCTITE 8040 Freeze & Release

Features and Benefits

A special mineral-oil based lubricant, formulated to quickly free parts from rust, corrosion and seizure – and to keep them lubricated and protected.
LOCTITE® LB 8040 is a special mineral oil designed to free rusted, corroded and seized parts. The shock-freezing effect will cool parts instantly down to -43 °C and cause microscopic cracks in the layer of rust. This allows the lubricating ingredients to wick directly into the rust by capillary action. The product leaves a thin film on the released parts that lubricates and prevents rust.
  • Releases rusted and seized parts
  • Once loosened, parts remain lubricated and protected against corrosion
  • Penetrates rust through capillary action
