Frequently Asked Questions

How do I apply the Loctite 248 Threadlocker Stick?

For best results, first ensure all surfaces are clean and dry. Advance only the amount of product needed, remove any surface "skin" from the stick, and apply the material directly to the threads where the nut will engage. Assemble and tighten your parts as normal.

Can this product be used on plastic parts?

Loctite 248 is generally not recommended for use on plastics, particularly thermoplastic materials, as it may cause stress cracking. We recommend testing compatibility on a hidden area or consulting technical documentation if you must use it on non-metal substrates.

How do I remove fasteners treated with this threadlocker?

Fasteners secured with Loctite 248 can typically be removed using standard hand tools. If the engagement length is excessive and hand tools are insufficient, apply localized heat (approximately 250 °C) to the nut or bolt and disassemble while hot.

What is the recommended storage for this product?

To maintain optimal performance, store the stick in its unopened container in a dry location, ideally between 8 °C and 21 °C. Avoid temperatures below 8 °C or above 28 °C, as these conditions can adversely affect the product's properties. Do not return used material to the original container to avoid contamination.
