Technical Data Sheet
LOCTITE® 567™
April-2015
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
LOCTITE® 567™ provides the following product
characteristics:
Technology Acrylic
Chemical Type Methacrylate ester
Appearance (uncured) Smooth, creamy, off-white pasteLMS
Components One component -
requires no mixing
Viscosity High
Cure Anaerobic
Secondary Cure Activator
Application Thread sealing
Strength Low
LOCTITE® 567™ is designed for the locking and sealing of
metal tapered threads and fittings. The product cures when
confined in the absence of air between close fitting metal
surfaces and prevents loosening and leakage from shock and
vibration. The high lubricating properties of this compound
prevent galling on stainless steel, aluminum and all other metal
pipe threads and fittings. LOCTITE® 567™ is recommended for
industrial applications in the chemical processing, petroleum
refining, pulp/paper, waste treatment, textile, utilities/power
generation, marine, automotive, industrial equipment, gas
compression and distribution industries. It is also
recommended for industrial plant fluid power systems.

GENERAL INFORMATION
This product is not recommended for use in pure oxygen
and/or oxygen rich systems and should not be selected as
a sealant for chlorine or other strong oxidizing materials.
For safe handling information on this product, consult the
Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
Where aqueous washing systems are used to clean the
surfaces before bonding, it is important to check for
compatibility of the washing solution with the adhesive. In
some cases these aqueous washes can affect the cure and
performance of the adhesive.
This product is not normally recommended for use on plastics
(particularly thermoplastic materials where stress cracking of
the plastic could result). Users are recommended to confirm
compatibility of the product with such substrates.
Directions for use:
For Assembly
1. For best results, clean all surfaces (external and internal)
with a LOCTITE® cleaning solvent and allow to dry.
2. If the material is an inactive metal or the cure speed is
too slow, spray with Activator 7471™ or
7649™ and allow to dry.
3. Apply a 360° bead of product to the leading threads of

the male fitting, leaving the first thread free. Force the
material into the threads to thoroughly fill the voids. For
bigger threads and voids, adjust product amount
accordingly and apply a 360° bead of product on the
female threads also.
4. Using compliant practices, assemble and wrench tighten
fittings in accordance with manufacturers
recommendations.
5. Properly tightened fittings will seal instantly to moderate
pressures. For maximum pressure resistance and
solvent resistance allow the product to cure a minimum of
24 hours.
For Disassembly
1. Remove with standard hand tools.
2. Where hand tools do not work because of excessive
engagement length or large diameters (over 1"), apply
localized heat to approximately 250 °C. Disassemble
while hot.
For Cleanup
1. Cured product can be removed with a combination of
soaking in a Loctite solvent and mechanical abrasion
such as a wire brush.
