## Overview

Loctite 271 Threadlocker is a high-strength, red anaerobic adhesive designed for permanent locking and sealing of metal fasteners up to 1 inch.

## Description

" Convenient, Portable & Effective LOCTITE® 271™ is a red, low viscosity, methacrylate-based threadlocking adhesive with high strength. With steel fixture time of 10 min, brass 5 min and stainless steel 15 min. Can tolerate slight contaminations of industrial oils. Suitable for all metal fasteners. Breakaway torque on M10 bolts of 26 Nm. Fluoresces under UV light. Perfect for temperatures between -65°F - 360°F (-54°C - 182°C). LOCTITE® 271™ is designed for the permanent locking and sealing of threaded fasteners. The product cures when confined in the absence of air between close fitting metal surfaces and prevents loosening and leakage from shock and vibration. LOCTITE® 271™ adds 3,000 PSI holding power on slip and press fit assemblies. Typical applications include the locking and sealing of large bolts and studs (up to M25 ). MILITARY GRADE ADHESION This high-strength thread locker is tested to the lot requirements of Military Specification Mil-S-46163A. MIL-SPEC (Military standard or Military-SPEC) adhesive are products that meet or exceed the US defense standard, a measure of quality set to standardize the expectations of all products supplied to the US Military. Each lot is also tested by the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials), a body of skilled personnel that specializes in testing materials and generating standards of quality.

Review: He loves it! - I am a retired A.S.E. master technician and have used thread lockers many times over many years. This time I was fixing a friends revolver barrel that had come loose and was rotating. Problem solved and my buddy is once again a straight shooter.
Review: Did the job perfectly - Replacing axle nuts on my ‘06 Corvette. Locked them on the shaft easily. As recommended, waited 24 hours for the thread lock to set properly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this be 2 heavy for gun sight installation or just what i need?**
A: It might be to much for 271. It was designed for larger treads 3/8 + hold, and might make it impossible to remove at a latter time because of inability to apply enough heat and torque to remove from small treads like a scope mount. use Blue which is for small threads

**Q: Does this product require a primer?  The fourth picture on Amazon suggests it does but the instructions do not mention a primer.  Stainless + aluminum**
A: I didn't need to. I used it on steel threads. Didn't even clean them. Applied this product and assembled. Hardened in minutes. I waiyed 24hrs  before use just in case. Excellent product. I've used in the automobile repair industry for 30yrs.

**Q: Would this be appropriate for the locking nut on a sink faucet, that is always coming loose and making the faucet wobble?**
A: Oh god no! This is for applications of extreme vibration and areas that's could be extremely dangerous if a bolt or nut came loose. All you should need for you faucet is the blue loctite. After using the red, you would need some serious heat and a breaker bar to free that nut if you needed to replace that faucet in the future.

**Q: if it is opened/used, how long will it stay fresh/usable?**
A: Unopened/opened shelf life of Loctite 271 is two years from date of manufacture. Since exposure to oxygen is what keeps the liquid product stable, and it is packaged in a "breathable" plastic bottle, there is no change in shelf life once the product has been opened.
