You sure can.

By spraying or dripping Primer N on the fillet also known as the squeezeout, it'll cure up and cure very slightly into the area of threaded engagement.

Awesome. I'll go get some.

Well the 7649 didn't seem to do anything. I sprayed it on and let it sit for 5 hours and the 609 fillet is still liquid. Blah, I just spray painted over it.

OK guys, just thought I could ask a quick question in here.

I am replacing the rear pivot bearings on my GS and I believe they call for Loctite 270 on the large pivot pins.

Would Red Loctite (271 I believe) work as well?

Thanks!
Jon

Great question. 270 is spec'ed in as a Euro-only available product. 271, pn. 27221 (10ml bottle), also a red high strength threadlocker is the ideal equivalent for the left side of the pond.

This question comes up often... 270 is green, not red.

LOCTITE 270™ is particularly suitable for heavy duty applications such as studs into motor housings, nuts onto studs in pump housings and other fasteners where maximum strength is required.

You can get some here among other places.

Yeah, I had read that before.

http://www.cnctar.hunbay.com/Svejk/L...tite%20270.pdf which looks like a Loctite Technical Data Sheet says its green???

Farnsrocket · 06-03-2009, 08:54 PM

We're talking about 271, which is red........I don't think he meant to put the "ALSO" in his description, as we know 270 is green.

Red is the new Green?

No, wait, this is the Loctite thread, not a thread on printing money and this wonderful economy..sorry.

270 /break loose:230 prevailing:350

271/break loose: 250 prevailing: 275

277/break loose: 275 prevailing: 275

2760/break loose: 325 prevailing: 320

As you can see none are an exact match, but keep in mind all of the prods. listed above should work nicely.

I must be color blind

Hey everyone-

I have been debating this AM over whether to make this post in Vendors or this thread, ADVrider's very own slightly irreverant yet unofficial "Ask a Loctite Question Thread".

And since this link is only about cross fertilization and sharing tips and tricks with other folks throughout the world on holding your machinery together and keeping fluid in your engine rather than on the ground, all of us might learn a thing or two I figured I'd post the link on this thread.

There's also a giveaway of $20k worth of shop tools as an added bonus if the tip or trick you share is culled from the collective wisdom.

Mods, if any of you feel making this post or posting this link isn't apprpriate please take appropriate action. Sorry.

Peace, Love, and Glue,

Dirty

One big difference between Loctite 270 and 271 is the former (270) is hard to find locally and can be expensive, especially when you add shipping charges, whereas the latter (271) is readily available from Home Depot for about $5.00.

I assume, perhaps incorrectly, the break loose number applies to the torque needed to break the bond, but what does the prevailing number apply to?

Thanks Jack,
I still need a little clarification on prevaililing. According to the table you have a link to:
PREVAILING TORQUE
The torque required to run a nut down a thread on certain types of nuts designed to resist vibration loosening. The resistance can be provided by a plastic insert or a noncircular head

Does this mean that when Loctite 271 has been used that it will take 275 F-lb (N-m ?) for a bolt to unscrew?
