Henkel Loctite adhesives, sealants and surface technology
We are your supplier for Henkel Loctite products in the following areas.
Threadlockers
e.g. Loctite 243, Loctite 248 Stick, Loctite 270
Loctite threadlockers secure all screws and threaded connections against becoming loose as a result of vibration or impact loads. Due to their ease of flow, they can completely fill in spaces in the thread. Loctite threadlockers are suitable for different areas of application
Properties
- Single-component
- Clean and easy to apply
- Vibration-resistant
- Secures and tightens all threaded connections
- Lowers storage costs
Perfect sealing!
Examples: Loctite 55 pipe sealing cord, Loctite 577, Loctite 542
Loctite thread sealants in fluid form or as sealing cord prevent the escape of gaseous and liquid media. Loctite thread sealants fill the intermediate spaces in the thread and achieve an immediate sealing effect against low pressures. When fully hardened, the thread sealant can seal off connections up to the bursting strength of must pipelines.
Those who require professional products for sealing pipe connections, connection pieces and other thread sealant types will find the right solutions for every demand and material with Loctite.
The right Loctite thread sealant for your application. Seals must ensure a reliable long-term sealing effect. Pipes must remain tight even when subject to the strongest vibrations, chemical effects, heat and impacts. The materials to be sealed off from each other are important in the selection process. Are you sealing a plastic thread, a metal thread or a combination of both?

The advantages of Loctite thread sealants over conventional sealants:
- Single-component - clean and easy to apply
- No creepage, shrinkage or clogging of systems
- Can be used for threaded pipe connections in all sizes
- Replaces sealing tape as well as hemp and paste
- The seal is resistant to vibration and impact loads
- Prevents corrosion in the thread
Surface sealants
including Loctite 5188, Loctite 510, Loctite SI5980
Surface sealants are sealants that prevent the escape of liquids or gases by forming impermeable barriers. Loctite surface sealants are self-forming sealants that perfectly seal off the flange at maximum surface contact, achieving effective corrosion protection between the flanges.
Loctite offers different sealant versions for flange connections. Both slowly hardening products and high-strength or highly flexible anaerobic surface sealants are included in the product range.
Sealant requirements
It is particularly important in the case of flange connections that the sealant remains intact and tight over the entire lifespan of the seal.
Your advantages
- Single-component
- Fills surface roughness – without fine machining
- Controllable tolerances – no re-tightening of screws required
- Excellent, immediate sealing effect
- Connections can be detached again
Shaft-hub connection
For example: Loctite 603, Loctite 638, Loctite 660
Loctite retaining compounds fix bearings, bushings and other cylindrical parts in housings and on shafts. They optimise power transmission, allow for a uniform distribution of stresses and prevent fretting and frictional corrosion. The adhesive is applied in a fluid state and establishes a 100% contact between the two metal joining surfaces: No expensive spare parts, no time-consuming mechanical processing, no mechanical fasteners.
The advantages of Loctite retaining compounds over conventional joining processes:
- High-strength products for high power transmission
- Fill in all spaces in the thread and prevents fretting and frictional corrosion
- 100% surface area contact – forces and stresses are distributed uniformly
Loctite retaining compounds fill the gap between the joined parts, forming a strong precision connection after hardening
Loctite instant adhesives
e.g.: Loctite 401, Loctite 454 Gel, Loctite 3090
Instant adhesives, also known as cyanoacrylates, harden between tight contact surfaces very quickly. Loctite instant adhesives are used to glue small parts and harden extremely quickly. Loctite is the market leader in the field of instant adhesive technology.
Loctite instant adhesives are suitable for many materials and are available in liquid or gel form.
Selecting the right Loctite instant adhesive:
Loctite instant adhesives are optimised for specific areas of application with respect, for example, to the materials to be glued, the occurring loads, the bonding geometry, process parameters, etc. They adhere excellently to most materials, and the bonding strength is very good under shear and tensile loading.
Advantages of Loctite instant adhesives
- Clean and easy to apply
- Very fast positioning and fixture time
- Bonding of a wide variety of materials
- High cohesion on very small bonding surfaces
- Free of solvents
