Equipment applications (2 sections) - use when in-page navigation is implemented

Standard nuts and bolts / Through hole

Apply a liquid threadlocker onto the bolt and proposed tightened nut engagement area. Any excess threadlocker is pushed along with  the nut as it is tightened. The volume of threadlocker needed depends on the size of the fastener and engagement area. A few free-falling drops is a typical volume required for an M10 or 3/8" bolt. A minimal amount of threadlocker squeezing out from the nut and bearing surface interface indicates that a sufficient volume of product has been used to fill the clearance.

Blind Hole

Improperly applied threadlocker in a blind hole application can cause incomplete coverage of the engaged threads. For blind hole applications, drops of liquid threadlocker should be applied down the female threads into the bottom third of the hole or the bottom of the hole. Once the bolt threads become engaged with coated blind hole threads, the air will push threadlocker towards the exit of the hole, creating proper coverage. To ensure complete coverage, it is suggested that threadlocker also be applied to the threads where the threads of the nut and bolt are engaged.

Post Assembly

When a threaded assembly has already been assembled and torqued to the target clamp load, a wicking grade threadlocker can be used. This is particularly suitable for locking adjustment and/or set screws or for preventative maintenance on existing equipment. Product should be applied at the nut and bolt junction.

Overhead Application

For bolts in overhead applications, semi-solid threadlocker, such as LOCTITE 248, can be used for a cleaner application. To apply a semi-solid threadlocker, completely fill the root of the bolt threads at the engagement area. Any excess threadlocker is pushed along with the nut as it is tightened.

Minimizing outgassing Concerns - Low volatility/Silicone-free Solutions

Some electronic devices require excellent heat dissipation for optimized function but have more sensitive components and/or processes. Minimization of outgassing is necessary to avoid interference with these areas with other components.

Outgassing residues can interfere with sensitive components and operational sensors, which could impact control functionality, visual appearance, or final parts assembly.

Although silicone-based TIMs provide superior thermal stability, silica dust generated from silicone outgassing has the potential to interfere with the movement of small parts and prevent operation. Low-volatile or silicone-free TIM material minimize the risk for concerns in applications with increased outgassing sensitivity.

Henkel's expert formulated low volatile silicones and silicone-free TIMs reduce concerns of contamination exposure and protects sensitive components from residue interference.
