Welcome back to Albany County Fasteners

I'm bob and today we're going to talk
about thread locking solutions.
So these thread locking solutions are MRO brand
and they're equivalent to Loctite, Vibra-tite,
etc. Thread locking is a sealing
product available in removable and
permanent. So we're going to demonstrate
these products to you.
So this is a low strength solution
15 This is removable. This is made for
small screw diameters up to a quarter
inch. May be dismantled with Hand tools so
you can use a ratchet or pliers
to remove the nut or the screw.
So the next one I have is a solution 17. This is a
medium strength, blue color. Available in regular
and oil resistant. It's removable. May be
disassembled with hand tools up to
three-quarters of an inch diameter bolt.
Oil resistance is thicker and less runny.
Our solution 10 is almost
equivalent to a solution 17.
The only difference between the two is
that solution 17 is oil resistant
whereas the solution 10 is a standard
thread locker with medium strength. It has
the same properties basically of the
blue available in regular.
So this would be the regular and
this would be the oil. Removable.
And the same thing, it goes up to
three-quarters of an inch in diameter
bolts to be used.
The last one here is solution
16. This is a high-strength,
high-temperature, threadlocker. This
you're not going to remove with regular tools.
This is permanent. Once you apply it, it
would stand up to 450 degrees. It goes up
to one-and-a-half inch diameter bolts.
Disassembly is very difficult and
impossible in most situations.
So I'm going to take this solution 10, which is
the the medium strength blue. As you can
see this is brand-new. Comes with a sealed top
on it. It has different levels to cut the
tip off, so depending on how much
material you want to come out. I'm just
going to use the first tier and then I'm
going to apply some of this on here. This
is the solution 10. That's
enough on there, I think I put a little too
much maybe this time. I'm just going to
screw this on and I'm just going to leave it
there and let it set up. I'm also going
to move this to the side, put the cap back on,
and then I'm going to take the next one.
This is solution 15 this is the low
strength threadlocker. Same thing, this is
brand-new so I'm just going to cut the
top off a little bit here and apply this
one on.
Put that on there, let that sit, close that
up. This is the solution 17 this is
blue also the other one was red
that I just did. I'm just going to cut that
tip off a little bit. I'm going to apply a little
bit on here.
That's the 17. And then the final one which is the
high-strength. I have to remove the top
on this too, and I'm going to apply a
little bit of this stuff.
There we go.
This is the one they say is non-removable
but we'll see, we'll test that.
So we applied the thread Locker to each one of
these items: the screw, the hex cap screw,
and the nut. So this is the
solution 15, mro solution 15, purple. I'm
going to see-this is low
strength by the way-so I should just be able to
take this right off with these tools
here. This is for demonstration; for using
it on an engine or something like that.
You get the same result.
So this comes right off, but as you can
see there you can see the
purple threadlocker on
there. So this is a lightweight, light-duty,
low-strength product.
So this is the solution 10 blue. This is the most
common thread Locker product. Everybody
uses blue. It's medium strength.
This was applied 24 hours ago and I'm
just going to take my wrenches here and
just see how it breaks off.
This is a little stronger than the low
strength and you can feel that.
So it does lock the thread. You can see the blue
residue coming off of my hands here. It does lock the thread
Does a pretty good job of it.
This is solution 17. This thread Locker
is an oil-resistant threadlocker. We did
apply the blue oil resistant
threadlocker 24 hours ago and I'm just
going to see how this removes.
Actually this one, the oil resistance one, is actually a
little stronger in strength, but again
does the job very.
This is solution 16. This is high strength and
high-temperature. This is either very
difficult to remove after you place the
thread Locker on the nut and screw or
it will be impossible.
It's one or the other but we're going to
see what happens here. We applied this 24 hours ago,
so let's let's see what happens here.
Well that's a good sign.
I'm going to apply a little more pressure here.
Alright, so it is turning but it's taking
a lot of pressure to get it off.
So I would say that this is very good as far
as high-strength goes, but in this
demonstration it was not impossible to
remove it. It's very strong in threadlocking.
So there you go.
I taught you about the different solutions
for threadlocker. Different applications for them.
