How to Use a Permatex Threadlocker PX 27100
Vibration causes threaded fasteners to work loose. This allows parts to become unstable and possibly fall free of each other. Permatex threadlocker creates a bond between the female and male threads of a connection. Properly applying Permatex threadlocker to the connection before assembly provides the fasteners with the bond needed to avoid failure of the connection when subjected to vibration.
Instructions
- 1
Clean the female threads of the connection by sliding a round wire brush into the opening, twisting the handle of the brush and pulling the brush from the threaded hole.
2Remove debris from the male threads of the connection by running over the threads with a wire brush.
3Spray aerosol part cleaner on the cleaned male and female threads. Allow the part cleaner to dry for 10 to 15 minutes.
4Apply part primer to all prepared threads entering the connection. Allow the primer to dry for 15 to 20 minutes.
5Remove the cap from the Permatex threadlocker. Tilt the nozzle of the threadlocker toward the female threads of a deep threaded hole or the male threads of a bolt and nut connection. Squeeze the bottle of threadlocker to apply a generous amount of product to the threads.
6Connect the male and female threads of the connection using standard connecting methods.
7Clean excess Permatex threadlocker from the area surrounding the connection with aerosol part cleaner and a clean rag.
