About this product

LOCTITE Threadlocker 242 is an all-purpose, medium strength, blue threadlocker. Ideal for all nut and bolt applications 1/4" to 3/4" (6mm to 19mm). Eliminates the need for stocking expensive lock nuts and lock washers. Locks and seals while preventing parts from loosening due to vibration. Protects threads from corrosion. Removable with hand tools for easy disassembly. LOCTITE 242 is a medium strength, medium viscosity, methacrylate-based threadlocking adhesive offering general-purpose qualities. The product provides quick fixture times on steel, brass, and stainless steel of 5, 15, and 20 min respectively. LOCTITE 242 is thixotropic to prevent migration after application and is intended for fasteners that require normal disassembly with standard hand tools. Perfect for temperatures between -65°F - 300°F (-54°C - 149°C). STEADFAST ADHESION LOCTITE 242 is designed for the locking and sealing of threaded fasteners which require normal disassembly with standard hand tools. The product cures when confined in the absence of air between close-fitting metal surfaces and prevents loosening and leakage from shock and vibration. Suitable for applications on less active substrates such as plated surfaces, where disassembly with hand tools is required for servicing. LOCTITE automotive aftermarket products are not just OEM-specified, they are also designed by auto manufacturers and lab tested. Engines of nearly every professional race car are assembled and maintained with LOCTITE brand adhesives, sealants, gasket makers, and coatings. Whether gasoline or diesel, from bolts and gaskets to cooling lines and core plugs, Henkel products are used to seal, secure, and repair vehicle components.
