Loctite 2047 Threadlocker
Loctite 2047 Medium-strength Threadlocker Black 50ml
- Strength : Very low
- Temperature Resistance : 300°F (150°C)
- Viscosity : Medium
- Color : Black
- Curing Type : Anaerobic
- Application : Threadlocking
LOCTITE 2047 is designed for use in threadlocking applications requiring high strength and high lubricity.
The product cures when confined in the absence of air between close fitting metal surfaces and prevents loosening and leakage from shock and vibration. This product is specially formulated with lubricant additives to match the lubricity normally achieved with metal free anti-seize lubricants.
LOCTITE 2047 has a slow cure profile to allow torquing of multiple bolts in a single assembly prior to curing. On large highly torqued bolts where considerable heat is generated during assembly, the slow cure profile is a benefit in preventing premature cure.
TYPICAL CURING PERFORMANCE
Cure Speed vs. Substrate
The graph below shows the breakaway strength developed
with time on 3/8 x 16 steel nuts & bolts compared to different
materials and tested at room temperature according to ISO
10964.
Cure Speed vs. Temperature
The rate of cure will depend on the ambient temperature. The
graph below shows the breakaway strength developed with
time at different temperatures on 3/8 x 16 steel nuts & bolts
and tested according to ISO 10964.
Cure Speed vs. Activator
Where cure speed is unacceptably long, or large gaps are
present, applying activator to the surface will improve cure
speed. The graph below shows the breakaway strength
developed with time on 3/8 x 16 zinc dichromate steel nuts and
bolts using Activator 7471™ and 7649™ and tested according
to ISO 10964.
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
- For best results, clean all surfaces (external and internal)
with a LOCTITE®
cleaning solvent and allow to dry. - If the material is an inactive metal or the cure speed is
too slow, spray all threads with Activator 7471™ or
7649™ and allow to dry. - Shake the product thoroughly before use.
- To prevent the product from clogging in the nozzle, do
not allow the tip to touch metal surfaces during
application. - For Thru Holes, apply several drops of the product onto
the bolt at the nut engagement area. - For Blind Holes, apply several drops of the product
down the internal threads to the bottom of the hole. - For Sealing Applications, 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
thouroughly fill the voids. For bigger threads and voids,
adjust product amount accordingly and apply a 360°
bead of product on the female threads also. - Assemble and tighten as required.
For Disassembly
- Remove with standard hand tools.
- 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
- Cured product can be removed with a combination of
soaking in a Loctite solvent and mechanical abrasion
such as a wire brush.
