Loctite 270 High Strength Threadlocker

LOCTITE 270 is a high-strength threadlocker. It is designed for the permanent locking and sealing of bolts, nuts and studs. Its action prevents loosening and leakage due to shock and vibration. LOCTITE® 270 is particularly suitable for heavy duty applications, where maximum strength is required.

LOCTITE 270 works on active metals and passive substrates (e.g. stainless steel) alike. The product offers high-temperature performance (up to 180° C) and good oil tolerance. It also withstands minor surface contaminants, such as cutting, lubrication and anti-corrosion fluids.

• Prevents loosening on vibrating assemblies, such as pumps, gear boxes or presses
• Works on all metals, including passive substrates (e.g. stainless steel, aluminium, plated surfaces)
• Tolerant of minor contamination due to industrial oils
• Can be disassembled with hand tools, after heating to 250°C
• P1 NSF Reg. No.: 123006

How to use Loctite 270:

1. For best results, clean all surfaces with a LOCTITE® solvent. Allow it to dry.
2. If using on inactive metal or curing speed is too slow, use an activator spray such as LOCTITE® SF 7471 or SF 7649. Allow it to dry.
3. Do not allow the tip to touch the surfaces during application. This will prevent the liquid from clogging in the nozzle.
4. For thru holes. Apply several drops of the product onto the bolt at the nut engagement area.
5. For blind holes. Apply several drops of the product down the internal threads to the bottom of the hole.
6. For sealing applications. Apply a 360° bead of product to the leading threads of the male fitting. Leave the first thread free. For bigger threads: adjust product amount accordingly. Apply a 360° bead of product on the female threads also.
7. Assemble and tighten as required.

Storage

Store LOCTITE 270 in the unopened container in a dry location. Optimal Storage: 8° C to 21° C. Storage below 8° C or greater than 28° C can adversely affect product properties.
