Fair enough unless the threads a tight tolerance, you'd end up hydraulicing the hole, common on engine bolts when there's oil in a hole it cracks the casing

He is actually right about the principle but the execution is not 100% correct. Loctite advices to apply the threadlocker to the 3rd or 4th thread from the bottom on the threads of the body. So, that there won't be any remaining adhesive, which stays uncured.

I suppose the solution is to apply threadlocker to the bolt, screw it in and see if it bubbles out - no: leave it, yes: remove bolt, drops into hole then screw it

That was my first thought also.

I wouldn't do this into a blind hole on an engine casting unless I knew it was a loose fit. It's surprisingly easy to crack the casting when you torque the bolt into the blind hole with uncompressible liquid below it. (This is one reason to always blow out holes with compressed air before assembly.). On the other hand, I can't think of engine casting holes that call for threadlocker, usually just a specified torque, so it probably won't matter.

Didn't know that. Waiting for more from you guys!

This actually answers my question better then allot of the videos testing these. Because the difference actually depends on whether you have an open or closed / blind hole that you're screwing into. As to how the thread locker will apply.. My other question which I think would help in these closed ended holes as well. Is whether you should allow the Loctite to cure for awhile, before driving the screw in..

@ActionBOX

Awesome, I’m glad we could help. Many Loctite thread lockers are anaerobic adhesives which means they harden or “cure” in the absence of oxygen. Hence no need to wait. Hope that helps. Cheers, Dave

No problem 😄

betting this stuff is probably different from the pre-coated bolts you get with some fasteners that have a ring of blue loc-tite on them otherwise you could just go the route of putting it on the bolt as such, letting it cure for a day or two then using it when you need to and the friction creates the bond when you run the bolt into a threaded fixture.

Locktite made a similar video a few years ago showing this for blind holes.

Yeah, right, someone might believe this until they learn how trapped oil or coolant can crack an engine block when tightening head-bolts. And if it's a thru-hole, this explanation doesn't work anyway. Pre-applied thread-locker on factory bolts also magically works somehow. (Waaay too much fluid is being applied in this demonstration, by the way, a couple of drops is all it takes.)

Apply it to the bolt, and let it dry. The technique is good enough for car manufacturers.

You can fill a blind hole with fluid (oil/thread lock) so when you screw in the fastiner it can blow out the bottom of the housing from extreme hydraulic pressure.. Old chevy water pump housing and blue rtv in the hole is how I learned this.. Peace man

Loctite 425 or Plastic Assure Threadlocker is safe for plastic-- It's cyanoacrylate based. Maybe it's just a fancy super glue. Also take a look at Vibra-Tite VC-3 which is a removable threadlocker not made by Loctite that should work with plastics.

As stated in the video, Correct.

Understandable....yet. Good luck on trying to remove the bolts when needed. The thread locker is only supposed to be applied sparingly per application "a drop across a few threads" Then allow to fully dry and cure before fastening in the hole.

@ryanokeefe12

I think you've misread the tech data/user guide for this stuff. It mentions letting the threads dry after you clean them... not letting the thread locker dry. Thread locker is anaerobic, meaning it dries in the absence of oxygen. It will never cure before installing it. It also acts as a sealant and lubricates the threads before it dries so that you don't get binding. Unless you're using a specialist formulation, it's not possible to allow it to dry before installing the thread. Even if it could dry, it's not the correct method.

That is also the wrong way to apply threadlocker! Apply a very small amount to nut, or bolt hole. Apply a small amount to the end of the bolt, then let them both set up for a few minutes. Wipe off any excess on the bolt with your finger, insert bolt until it's almost seated, then wipe off any excess around the bolt hole before seating the bolt. No threadlocker on the mating surfaces.

woah. dude. okay, im a dummy. shit.
