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 LOCTITE 271 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 activator LOCTITE® SF 7649 (see cure speed vs activator graph in the TDS).
3. Application
Apply liquid threadlocker to the engagement area. For manual dispensing, the use of a peristaltic handgun or the LOCTITE® Pro Pump is recommended to ensure a consistent application volume.
4a. Application - Through-Hole
Insert bolt and apply threadlocker to the exposed thread. Assemble nut and tighten to the correct/specified torque.
4b. Application - Blind Hole
Apply several drops of liquid threadlocker down the sides of the blind hole filling the lower third. Apply several drops to the bolt.
5. Assembly
Assemble and tighten. If several bolts are being assembled, torque them down to the correct value within the fixture.
6. Disassembly - Hand Tools
Disassemble with standard hand tools.
7a. Disassembly - Heat
If disassembly is not possible using normal hand tools, apply localized heat to approximately 250°C. Disassemble while hot.
7b. Disassembly After Heating - Hand Tools
Disassemble while hot with standard hand tools.
Hint
For the disassembly of corroded or seized parts, use LOCTITE® LB 8040 Freeze and Release.
