Loctite 262 – Threadlocker

LOCTITE® 262™ is designed for the permanent locking and sealing of threaded fasteners. The product cures when confined in the absence of air between close fitting metal surfaces and prevents loosening and leakage from shock and vibration. Typical applications include the locking and sealing of large bolts and studs (up to M25 ). The thixotropic nature of LOCTITE® 262™ reduces the migration of liquid product after application to the substrate \n \nMedium/high strength, thixotropic methacrylate-based threadlocking adhesive which fluoresces under UV light to allow monitoring. LOCTITE 262 is a red, general purpose, medium to high strength, thixotropic methacrylate-based adhesive. Steel fixture time is 15 min, brass 8 min and stainless steel 180 min. It fluoresces under UV light to allow monitoring. Ideal for applications where any migration of the adhesive must be prevented. Can tolerate slight contaminations of industrial oils. Suitable for all metal fasteners. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

\nPrevents loosening and leakage of threaded fasteners. Product is particularly lubricating (low K value) for easy assembly. Particularly suitable for heavy duty applications such as bolts used in transmissions, construction equipment or railroad assemblies where resistance to heavy shock, vibration and stress levels is required.
