LOCTITE 276/50ML – Fast Fixturing Threadlock

Loctite 276/50ml – Fast Fixturing Threadlock

Loctite 276 high strength, especially for nickel surfaces threadlocker.

Loctite 276 is designed for the permanent locking and sealing of threaded fasteners. The product cures when confined in the absence of air between close fitting metal surfaces and prevents loosening and leakage from shock and vibration. Loctite 276 is particularly suited for fast cure thereby reducing the need for activators, and/or for use on less active substrates such as coated or plated surfaces.

Typical Curing Performance

Cure Speed vs. Substrate
The rate of cure will depend on the substrate used. The graph shown in the data sheet shows the breakaway strength developed with time on M10 steel nuts and bolts compared to different materials and tested at room temperature according to ISO 10964.

Cure Speed vs. Bond Gap
The rate of cure will depend on the bondline gap. The graph shown in the data sheet shows shear strength developed with time on steel pins and collars at different controlled gaps and tested according to ISO 10123.

Cure Speed vs. Temperature
The rate of cure will depend on the temperature. The graph shown in the data sheet shows the breakaway strength developed with time at different temperatures on M10 steel nuts and bolts and tested according to ISO 10123.

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 shown in the data sheet shows the breakaway strength developed with time on M10 zinc dichromate steel nuts and bolts using Activator 7471 or 7649 and tested according to ISO 10964.
