Description
xLoctite 262 Red Threadlocker for Metal Joints
Loctite 262 is a red, high-strength threadlocker designed for metal assemblies. Housed in a 250 ml bottle, the liquid remains fluid until trapped between mating metal surfaces, then cures to form a durable, locking bond. This is an anaerobic formulation that begins to set as air is excluded by the threads, helping keep fasteners secure during operation.
With a mid-range viscosity, it flows into threads without excessive drips and sets after about 24 hours to reach its peak performance. In practical terms, you may notice the red hue marking the product on fasteners and a slight glossy finish as the compound cures, signaling a firm, vibration-resistant lock. It’s built to perform across a wide temperature range, from cold starts to hot running conditions.
