Product

Description 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker Anaerobic Adhesives are one-component anaerobic

adhesives that cure and seal threaded assemblies that meet a wide range of applications to

prevent vibration loosening and/or leakage. All products provide excellent vibration,

corrosion, and shock resistance. Engineered to provide different strengths, temperatures,

nut/bolt sizes, and other requirements, some threadlockers allow removal and meet

various selections depending on the specific application.

Technical Data March, 2010

Specif ic Features • 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker TL22 is removable with hand tools. It is a low

strength (low torque removal) threadlocker for small diameter, fine threaded screws, set

screws, nuts, bolts, and hex and slot driven components such as keyed fasteners.

• 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker TL42 is a general purpose, removable with hand

tools, medium strength threadlocker ideal for machine tool access bolts, and hydraulic

system bolts. It can also be used on gear box/driveshaft bolts, bearing cover cap screws,

countersunk screws, and conveyor roller bolts.

• 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker TL43 is a general purpose, removable with hand

tools, medium strength threadlocker for most medium and coarse-threaded screws, nuts

and bolts. It is oil tolerant to help secure as-received parts and its thixotropic property

prevents run-off, dripping, or migration of the adhesive product when applied on parts.

• 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker TL62 is a medium to high strength threadlocker

that is especially developed to secure assemblies with high strength retention. It allows

disassembly with heat and will perform on lightly oily parts with only approximately

10% strength reduction.

• 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker TL71 is a general purpose, permanent, high

strength threadlocker that locks bolts and studs up to 1" in diameter as it seals against

leakage and corrosion.

• 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker TL72 is a permanent, high strength threadlocker

formulated to lock bolts and studs up to 1" in diameter. It can be used for high

temperature threadlocking (intermittently up to 450°F) and its thixotropic nature

prevents dripping or migration of the liquid adhesive after assembly.

• 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker TL77 is a permanent, high strength, high viscosity

threadlocker designed to work well with larger diameter (up to 11/2") and coarse threaded

parts.

• 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker TL90 is low viscosity to provide a wicking action,

medium strength threadlocker that locks and seals small compression and ferrule

fittings with service temperature up to 400°F. It is useful for pre-assembled parts.

Directions for Use

3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Threadlocker Anaerobic Adhesives are not recommended for

use on most plastics due to potential cracking of plastic parts. Also, they are not

recommended for use in piping systems that contain pure oxygen or an oxygen-rich

environment, chlorine, or strong oxidizing substances.

For Assembly

1. Ensure parts are clean, dry and free from oil, grease and dirt. For best results,

clean and dry parts with solvent or 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Activator. (Activator

can also be used on inactive surfaces or to accelerate the cure on active

surfaces.)

2. If not sure of surface type, always use activ ator. Refer to Material Surface

Activity and Cure Speed section for more information.

3. Shake the adhesive bottle well before use.

4. Avoid touching the metal surfaces with the bottle tip since the metal ions may

react with the adhesive upon contact and eventually may clog the bottle tip.

5. Apply adhesive onto the threaded part where the contact area will be in the final

assembly. For larger parts, use more adhesive and rotate the threaded part to

spread adhesive evenly around contact area.

6. For through holes, apply several drops of adhesive onto the bolt at the nut

engagement area. For blind holes, apply several drops of the adhesive down the

internal threads to the bottom of the hole.

7. Assemble the nut/fastener and tighten as required.

8. Allow assemblies to set for sufficient time so that handling strength or full cure

will occur before further processing or testing.

For Disassembly

1. Loosen or remove with regular hand tools.

2. If hand tools do not work due to the assembled parts being well tightened, apply

localized heat (approximately 490°F) to the nut or bolt and disassemble while

parts are still hot. Use extreme caution when w orking with heat sources (e.g. heat

gun, flames, etc.
