Vibra-TITE 213 VC-3 Threadmate Threadlocker, -65 to 165 Degree F, 5mL Tube, Red

Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate is a powerful locking and sealing coating for threadedfasteners that works on the principle of "friction through viscosity." It utilizes a special blend of acrylic resins to prevent fasteners from loosening , even under extreme vibration. Designed for use on external and internal threads of virtually any material or finish, Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate dries to the touch within seconds of application. Coated parts are ready for assembly in just a few minutes. Pre-cleaning of parts is not required except for wiping off any visible oil, grease, or dirt for optimal performance. From tiny eyeglass screws to huge construction bolts, ideal for use on fasteners of any size. Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate adheres to both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, most platings, wood, and plastic screws. With exceptional reliability, Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate holds parts in place even during extreme vibration and resists leakage by acting as a dam between mated threads. Using steady pressure and standard hand tools, parts coated with Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate can easily be adjusted, removed, and reused. Shelf life in tube is 5 years from date of manufacture. Shelf life after applied is indefinite. Offers resistance to most solvents. Acts as a partial corrosion barrier. Dries to touch in seconds and Dries for use in minutes. Best achieved using considerable airflow in addition to temperature not exceeding 130 degree F Drying method for bulk production, 5 or more times reusable, moderate engagement torque. no distinct breakaway torque; slow, fluid release as material cold flows. Standard coating length is 1-1/2 times diameter. Thread fill requirement is 30 - 50% of the thread root area. Contains Methyl Ethyl Ketone. 5 mL tube.
