Loctite 601 Colour: fluorescent green Anaerobic, fast-curing, high-strength adhesive. Suitable for seal -
ing and retaining cylindrical assemblies with gap clearances of
up to 0.10 mm; used for retaining rotors, gears, bearings, pulleys,
bushes etc. on shafts.
Loctite 638 Colour: fluorescent green Anaerobic structural adhesive, quick-curing, very high strength;
suitable for bonding cylindrical parts in non-ferrous alloys.
Loctite 648 Colour: fluorescent green Anaerobic structural adhesive, quick-curing, high-strength; suit -
able for bonding cylindrical parts, permanent retention of thread -
ed parts, sealing of refrigeration systems, retention of bearings,
etc. Alternative to Loctite 601 in high-temperature applications.
Loctite 986/AVX Colour: Fluorescent red Anaerobic sealant/retaining compound for metal cylindrical parts.
Slow-curing, high-strength, heat-resistant and resistant to chemi -
cal attack. Parts must be first treated with an activator.
lubrICanTs Grease (NLGI 2 EP ASTM D217: 265/295) Multi-purpose Lithium grease used for lubrication of seals, to pre -
vent oxidization and to facilitate assembly operations.
Molikote (Dow Corning) Anti-wear compound, contains Molybdenum bisulphate, used
neat or diluted with engine oil for assembly of main engine bear -
ings.
Vaseline Neutral pH compound used to protect battery terminals against
oxidization and corrosion.
Engine oil 10W - 30 Used to dilute Molikote anti-wear lubricant during assembly of
