Loctite 648 Retaining Compound

Providing a durable, reliable solution to the specific challenges that cylindrical bonding between two metal components can present, Loctite 648 High Strength Retaining Compound is a sealant that is suitable for a wide selection of industrial and construction purposes.

Once applied and allowed to cure, the compound provides a robust, long-lasting bond that’s resistant to both mechanical and chemical weakening.

Features:

• High-strength bond
• Can be handled five minutes after application
• Bonds metal to metal
• Anaerobic curing
• Low viscosity
• Suitable for continuous use up to 175°C.

No Mixing Required

Loctite 648 High Strength Retaining Compound is a single compound that doesn’t require mixing or the addition of a catalyst. The bonding adhesive can be applied directly from the container, minimising waste.

Loctite 648 Bond in as Little as Five Minutes

The Retaining Compound will form a strong enough bond for the joined components to be handled after just five minutes. Full curing requires about six hours.

The bond is formed through an anaerobic reaction, making it ideal for parts in an engine or other mechanical setup that can’t be easily exposed to the air to activate curing.

Great for Sprockets

The High Strength Retaining Compound is suitable for almost any mechanical or industrial application. Common uses include sprockets, gearbox shafts, fixing rotors on rotor shafts and similar applications.

Fluorescent

As a fluorescent compound, it’s easy to see where it’s been applied, even in limited light conditions.

Resistant to Deterioration

Once the product has bonded, it’s immune to degradation from sunlight, moisture (either freshwater or saltwater), lubricants and oil.

Loctite 648 Suitable for Continuous use at High Temperatures

Loctite 648 will work effectively at temperatures between -55°C and 175°C.

Loctite 648 High Strength Retaining Compound provides a fast, convenient solution when a secure, durable cylindrical bond is required. If you have any questions about this product, our customer care team is happy to help.
