Permatex 27183-6PK High Strength Threadlocker Red, 90 ml (Pack of 6)

Just put some spacers on the Jeep and used this for some piece of mind. It’s been about a week and I re-torqued the nuts on the spacers they didn’t budge and all of them were perfect where I torqued them when I first put them on. If anything bad happens I’ll update this but it seems to be quite perfect to me. Please click helpful if you found this review of any help it would mean a lot.

I usually prefer the “blue” thread locker....but there are a few things I want locked down and don’t plan on removing. For those items, this is the way to go.Works exactly as it should, and I can recommend this item.*******************************I rely heavily on reviews when I make purchases so I put some time into reviewing everything I buy on Amazon for personal or business use so I can help other people considering that item.

normally I use the blue thread locker for everything. I used the blue to hold a compensator on gun which had to be a specific orientation. After a couple hundred rounds it started to twist. This is when I looked in to how thread lockers work and more importantly that you loosen bolts and such by applying heat. Guess what happens to a compensator when you fire it? Yup.Bought this and for whatever reason thought it's in a tube I don't need to shake it like the blue stuff. Took to range next day and started to turn almost immediately. Realizing the err or my ways I shook it and applied again. It hasn't budged sinceOne downside to this setup is to completely remove barrel requires to unscrew compensator. So at some point I'm going to have to be able to do that. I'm using a bore snake to clean barrel without removing it but at some point I'll try and heat it up with a heatgun and see if it nudges. I'll update this if I remember.

This product states that it will require heating up the parts secured with this threadlocker to 500 degrees in order to separate the parts after the threadlocker cures, so you really need to be sure this is what you want it to do. It was exactly what I was hoping for, and it worked flawlessly by holding a barrel nut in the handle of my Colt 45 that had a screw that would not separate from the barrel nut. I put the threadlocker on the barrel nut, attached it to my Colt, and the next day - today, I was able to get the screw out of the barrel nut, but it took some force to get it to break free. The barrel nut did not budge at all, so kudos to Permatex!

maybe have to bake this stuff to get it to really adhere as strong as suggested. that said, it does hold pretty well. I used to hold button head bolts into threaded hex connectors. Those went over studs in heads to hold valve covers on. Makes for a nice clean look that no one else has. Until now anyway. I was able to lightly torque my creation down ( does not take much on valve covers ) and then remove them as well. SO far the Red Thread lock is holding well. To Test strength of the Red Permatex, I used a 10mm wrench on the hex and an Allen wrench in the button head bolt. No heat and just one grunt , was able to easy enough get parts apart. BUT, appears to be doing what I wanted it to do. Proof in a few months, when I have to remove the valve covers to adjust the valves. fingers crossed. ha ha

Been using thread lockers of various brands for years. Permatex is a good brand. This is less expensive than in most stores. Use the blue "removable" type for most applications. Use this red type for larger fasteners or applications where maximum thread locking is needed.

I have another brands medium threadlock and have had zero issues. I cut the tip of this red just like I did the medium but this red leaked all over the place while closed with the cap after one use. Permanex? More like use once and it’ll Permanex-ly be sealed. The medium white cap has a small protruding piece to keep the stuff in and is 5 years old without issue. Now I can’t even use this red.

Immediately disgorges a third of its contents on slight pressure at a downward angle.Very difficult to control drop by drop.Unable to be used to suck up the excess back into the tube-- no ability to do so to any useful extent.Appears to be designed to waste product.Best applied upside down as a result. No other alignment appears to reliably address the issue.

Este producto debería ser obligatorio para todos los mecánicos, en carretera se me aflojo un tornillo del freno trasero y dehiziso freno de disco, caliper, horquilla, por suerte a mi no me paso mas que el susto, cuando la lleve al mecánico, vi que le ponía un poco de pintura a la punta de los tornillos, y me dijo, con esto jamás se te afloja un tornillo, te pasara otra cosa pero no un tornillo suelto.

No me sirvió para nada, espere 2 horas y seguía fresco como si lo acabara de aplicar... seguí bien las instrucciones.

Me agradó mucho este producto por que se comporta prácticamente igual que el locktite que compramos en mi empresa, a una fracción del costo.Lo usamos para tornillos de fixtures y ayuda muchísimo para que ya no se aflojen con el uso

works..........would buy again

Excelente solución para la seguridad y garantía de un trabajo que implica piezas tuercas etc
