WHICH LOCTITE TO USE.
Locking and sealing threads
222 Threadlocker Low Strength/Small Screw
Low strength threadlocker. Designed for precision metal fasteners under 3/4". Protects threads from rust and corrosion. Removable with hand tools. Available Worldwide
Applications
Set screws, adjustment screws, calibration screws, meters, gauges.
Color Purple (standard hand tools to diassemble)
243 Threadlocker Oil Resistant/Medium Strength
A general purpose, medium strength threadlocker with improved oil tolerance. For fasteners between 1/4" and 3/4" (6 to 20 mm) diameters.
Applications
Machine tools, presses, pumps, compressors, mounting bolts, gearboxes.
Color Blue (standard hand tools to disassemble)
262 Threadlocker Medium to High Strength
A permanent threadlocker for fasteners up to 3/4" (20 mm) diameter. High lubrication for easy assembly. Excellent for preventing rust and corrosion in extreme chemical/environmental conditions.
Applications
All fasteners that must withstand heavy shock, vibration, or extreme environmental or chemical conditions.
Color Red (Requires heat to remove)
Sealing threads
Thread Sealant 542 Fine Threads
A liquid sealant recommended for sealing the fine threads of hydraulic and pneumatic connectors.
Applications
Used to lock and seal hydraulic and pneumatic fittings. Recommended for sealing threaded metal fittings which should be fully torqued up.
Color Brown (standard hand tools to disassemble)
545 Thread Sealant Hydraulic/Pneumatic Sealant
A liquid sealant for locking and sealing high pressure, fluid power systems with tapered fittings. Contains no fillers and will not foul valves or fluid filtering systems.
Applications
Used to lock and seal hydraulic and pneumatic fittings, servomechanisms, and fine-filtration systems. Specially formulated to offer lubricity for easy assembly.
Color Purple (standard hand tools to disassemble)
567 PST Pipe Sealant
A high performance curing sealant for tapered pipe theads. Recommended for sealing metal tapered pipe theads and fittings (up to 5cm (2") National Pipe Thead (NPT).
Color White paste
Hope this clears up the locktite questions.
