How to Use a Permatex Threadlocker PX 27100

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.

    2

    Remove debris from the male threads of the connection by running over the threads with a wire brush.

    3

    Spray aerosol part cleaner on the cleaned male and female threads. Allow the part cleaner to dry for 10 to 15 minutes.

    4

    Apply part primer to all prepared threads entering the connection. Allow the primer to dry for 15 to 20 minutes.

    5

    Remove 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.

    6

    Connect the male and female threads of the connection using standard connecting methods.

    7

    Clean excess Permatex threadlocker from the area surrounding the connection with aerosol part cleaner and a clean rag.
