Insome cases these aqueous washes can affect the cure andperformance of the adhesive.This product is not normally recommended for use on plastics(particularly thermoplastic materials where stress cracking ofthe plastic could result). Users are recommended to confirmcompatibility of the product with such substrates.00 50 100 150Temperature, °CDirections for useFor Assembly1. For best results, clean all surfaces (external and internal)with a Loctite cleaning solvent and allow to dry.2. If the material is an inactive metal or the cure speed is toslow, spray all threads with Activator 7471 or7649 and allow to dry.3. Apply a 360° bead of product to the leading threads of themale fitting, leaving the first thread free. Force thematerial into the threads to thouroughly fill the voids. Forbigger threads and voids, adjust product amountaccordingly and apply a 360° bead of product on thefemale threads also.4. Using accepted trade practices, assemble and wrenchtighten fittings until proper alignment is obtained.5. Properly tightened fittings will seal instantly to moderatepressures.
