LOCTITE 609 RETAINER MEDIUM 50ML

Secure cylindrical assemblies with precision and strength using Loctite® 609, a green, high-strength methacrylate-based retaining compound formulated for the bonding of cylindrical fitting parts. Designed to augment press and slip fits, Loctite 609 cures anaerobically (in the absence of air) between close-fitting metal surfaces to create a reliable, vibration-resistant bond that prevents loosening and leakage.

With its low viscosity (120 mPa·s) and excellent capillary action, Loctite 609 flows easily into tight clearances, forming a strong, permanent connection between components such as rotors and shafts, bushings, sleeves, and bearings. Once cured, it delivers a shear strength of 15.8 N/mm² and resists temperatures from –55°C to +150°C, ensuring lasting performance in high-stress, high-speed environments.

Proven through testing under Military Specification Mil-R-46082B, Loctite 609 provides trusted reliability for motors, pumps, gearboxes, and precision mechanical assemblies where maintaining tight tolerances and alignment is critical.
