LOCTITE® 2701

Name: LOCTITE® 2701
Brand: LOCTITE

Features and Benefits

High strength, low viscosity, fluorescent, green, anaerobic-curing threadlocking adhesive for locking and sealing threaded fasteners.

LOCTITE® 2701 is a green, low viscosity, methacrylate-based threadlocking adhesive with high strength, ideal for chromated surfaces. It tolerates slight contaminations of industrial oils and is suitable for all metal fasteners. It fluoresces under UV light – great for quality control.

Low viscosity
Fluoresces to allow quality control and inspection
High strength, especially for chromated surfaces
Prevents unwanted movement, loosening, leaks and corrosion
Resists vibration
Seals threads - allows through-hole tapping

Prevent vibration loosening, prevent leaks, protect threaded components from corrosion and increase the reliability of mechanical fasteners by using a LOCTITE® anaerobic threadlocking adhesive.

The standard continuous operating temperature range for LOCTITE® anaerobic adhesives is -55˚C to +150˚C.Depending on the specific application requirements, high-performance grades are also available offering increased temperature resistance. Please consult with the Henkel technical team for availability and grade selection.

Yes, LOCTITE® anaerobic adhesives and sealants become highly resistant thermoset polymers once cured, making them suitable for a vast number of applications. Consult our online product resources or contact our technical teams for further information.

Yes, these products are all anaerobic adhesives that will function in a similar way. Variations in the adhesive characteristics (viscosity, gap-fill, strength etc.) will make them better suited to certain applications. Consult the product technical data sheets and/or LOCTITE® representatives for further information.

New resources to emphasise the importance of thread locking

Henkel, whose brands include LOCTITE^®, is on a mission to demonstrate the importance of locking threaded assemblies against vibrational self-loosening and has released a powerful new video and education guide to support this initiative.

There are several different methods of addressing the problem of self-loosening and most of them include the use of mechanical devices to lock threads and maintain the desired clamp load. Common solutions are a double nut that increases contact through more thread interface, a spring washer to increase bolt tension through its spring action or a nylon insert which creates interference between itself and the bolt threads.

The limitation of all these methods is that none tackle the gap that exists between the threads of the bolt and nut. The gap appears tiny to the naked eye, but it is still large enough to allow side to side movement of the bolt within the nut caused by operational vibrations. This movement...
