LOCTITE 290 - Threadlocker Medium Strength Wicking Green 10ml
LOCTITE® 290 is a green, medium-high strength threadlocker designed for the locking and sealing of threaded fasteners. Because of its low viscosity and capillary action, the product wicks between engaged threads and eliminates the need for disassembly prior to application (also referred to as wicking grade threadlocker). The product cures when confined in the absence of air between close-fitting metal surfaces and prevents loosening and leakage due to shock and vibration. Because of its flowable properties, the product is also suitable for sealing porosities in welds, castings and powdered metal parts.
- Prevents fastener loosening on vibrating assemblies, e.g., pumps, gear boxes, or presses
- Ideal for locking preassembled fasteners, e.g. instrumentation fasteners, electrical connectors and set screws
- Works on metal only
- Requires heat for disassembly
Invented by Loctite as a revolutionary method to positively lock and seal threaded fasteners, LOCTITE® threadlocker adhesives are used in a wide range of applications – from delicate fuel injection components to heavy-duty transmission and engine assemblies.
Specified by automotive OEMs and approved for use on factory assembly lines, threadlockers work by filling the spaces between threads. The result is a secure, one-piece assembly that will not loosen under stress.
