Product description
LOCTITE 262 10 ml – high-strength threadlocker for permanent locking
LOCTITE 262 is a red, one-component anaerobic adhesive designed for permanent locking and sealing of metal threaded assemblies. It cures in the absence of air between close-fitting metal surfaces and helps prevent loosening and leakage caused by static loads, shock and vibration.
Applications of LOCTITE 262
The product is intended for locking metal bolts, nuts and other threaded fasteners where high joint strength is required. It is suitable for use on materials including steel, stainless steel and brass. Its thixotropic properties help reduce run-off of the liquid adhesive during application.
Key properties
- high-strength threadlocking,
- anaerobic technology,
- helps prevent loosening caused by shock and vibration,
- red colour,
- thixotropic consistency to reduce run-off,
- fluoresces under UV light for easier application inspection,
- one-component product – no mixing required.
Selection and limitations
LOCTITE 262 is primarily intended for metal threaded assemblies. The manufacturer does not recommend its use in pure oxygen or oxygen-rich systems, nor in installations containing chlorine or other strongly oxidising materials. The product is also not generally recommended for thermoplastic materials susceptible to stress cracking.

FAQ
What is LOCTITE 262 used for?
LOCTITE 262 is used for permanent locking and sealing of metal threaded assemblies and helps prevent them from loosening under shock and vibration.
Is LOCTITE 262 suitable for stainless steel?
Yes. The manufacturer specifies use on materials including steel, stainless steel and brass. Cure speed may, however, be slower on passive surfaces.
Is LOCTITE 262 a high-strength threadlocker?
Yes. Henkel classifies LOCTITE 262 as a high-strength threadlocker intended for assemblies that require strong and permanent locking.
Is LOCTITE 262 resistant to vibration?
Yes. The product is designed to help prevent threaded fasteners from loosening under strong shock and vibration.
Why does LOCTITE 262 fluoresce under UV light?
UV fluorescence makes it easier to inspect the presence and correct application of the product during quality control.
How should LOCTITE 262 be stored?
The manufacturer recommends storing the closed container in a cool, dry place, optimally between +8°C and +21°C, unless the label of the specific package states otherwise.
