Default RE: Remove loctite

...you'll need a small propane torch to remove red loctite...it releases at 450 fahrenheit...don't heat the head, if you rely on the head you may overheat it, and you'll weaken the steel...heat the metal into which the bolt is threaded...and be careful, aluminum is tolerant of heat only to about 700 fahrenheit, anything much over that, you'll have distortion...
