Which thread locking fluid do u use ?
1 Attachment(s)
I'm looking for some thread locking fluid for my DF applications (engine carb bolts, ...).
I hesitate between : Loctite 243 and 222. Which one do u use ? Thanks. |
RE: Which thread locking fluid do u use ?
I've used both, and find them both to work well in all the applications I've used them in, including .91 DF stuff.

RE: Which thread locking fluid do u use ?
I have used them both. However after experience with both I now use only the blue 242 .
The reason is the "hold" of the purple 222 is simply too light . As you probably are aware, DO NOT use the red unless you NEVER plan on disassembly. |

i use the blue as a minimum. I also have the red and green on hand as well. the red is when I rebuild an os 91. the green is thin and can wick into already threaded applications.
