LOCTITE retaining compounds, when cured, fill the inner space between components to provide a physical and chemical barrier that enables the elimination of fretting corrosion, oxidation, and galvanic corrosion. By filling surface irregularities and clearance gaps with a very hard resin, the surface contact area is increased while the stress distribution is improved.
LOCTITE retaining compounds also increase the reliability of the joint regardless of the machining tolerances and cure to form a strong precision assembly. They help achieve maximum load transmission capability and uniform stress distribution. In addition, equipment downtime is reduced and part life is increased.
