LOCTITE® 222, 10 ml

Features and benefits

If you’re working with small diameter screws made of low strength metals (e.g., aluminium or brass), try LOCTITE® 222. It is ideal for low-strength threadlocking of adjustment screws, countersunk head screws, and set screws; on collars, pulleys, tool holders and controllers. It works on most metals without primer, including passive substrates such as stainless steel, aluminium and plated surfaces. It also cures through light coatings of corrosion prevention oils without having to clean the parts. 

How to use

1. Preparation - Cleaning

It is recommended to use LOCTITE® SF 7063/7064 to degrease and clean surfaces prior to applying adhesive.

2. Preparation - Activation

If cure speed is too slow due to passive metals (stainless steel, aluminium and plated metals) or low temperature (below 5°C), use activator LOCTITE® SF 7649 (see cure speed vs activator graph in the TDS).

3. Application

Apply liquid threadlocker to the engagement area.

4. Application - Through Hole

Insert bolt and apply threadlocker to the exposed thread. Assemble nut and tighten to the correct/specified torque.

5. Application - Blind Hole

Apply into lower third of blind hole.

6. Assembly

Assemble and tighten. If several bolts are being assembled, torque them down to the correct value within the fixture.
