Parts can be separated using hand tools. Applications include adjustment screws, countersunk head screws, and set screws; on collars, pulleys, tool holders and controllers. Also for low strength metals such as aluminum or brass.
- Ideal for low-strength threadlocking of adjusting screws, countersunk head screws and set screws
- Prevents fastener loosening on vibrating assemblies, e.g. pumps, gear boxes, or presses
- Especially suited to small thread sizes (1/4"/6mm)
- Permits disassembly with hand tools for servicing

How to
Step by Step Guide
1. Preparation - Cleaning
It is recommended to use LOCTITE SF 7070 to degrease and clean surfaces prior to applying threadlocker.
2. Preparation - Activation
If cure speed is too slow due to passive metals (stainless steel, aluminum and plated metals) or low temperature (below 5°C), use LOCTITE SF 7649 activator. Allow to dry.
3a. Application - Through Hole
Apply a few drops of liquid threadlocker to the thread engagement area. Assemble nut and tighten to proper torque.
3b. Application - Blind Hole
Apply several drops of liquid threadlocker into lower third of blind hole, as well as a few drops onto male threads, and then install male threads. Tighten to proper torque.
4. Assembly
Assemble and tighten to proper torque requirement. If several screws/small bolts are being assembled, torque them down to the correct value within the fixture time window.
5. Disassembly
Disassemble with standard hand tools.
