Preparation
WARNING 1 : Fire Hazard —Some solvents and primer products are flammable.
• Use in a well ventilated area.
• Do not use flammable products near ignition sources.
1. Clean all threads with a wire brush, a tap, or a die.
2. Degrease the fasteners and the mating threads with a cleaning solvent. Wipe the parts dry.
Note 2: LocTite 7649 Primer N
™
will remove grease from parts, but it costs more than a standard
organic or petroleum solvent.
3. Prime the fasteners and the mating threads with LocTite 7649 Primer N
™
or equal. Allow the
primer to dry for at least one minute.
3.
Application of Threadlocking Compound
CAUTION 2 : Malfunction Hazard
—Improper application of threadlocking compounds may
result in fasteners becoming loose from impact, heat, or vibration. Loose fasteners can cause the
equipment to malfunction.
• Read and follow the threadlocking compound manufacturer's instructions and warnings.
