Performance Characteristics
This high-strength threadlocker develops a breakaway torque of 33 N*m on M10 steel nuts and bolts after 24 hours at 23°C. It exhibits excellent chemical resistance, retaining 95% strength after 1000 hours in unleaded gasoline and 100% in brake fluid at 22°C. The product shows good performance in harsh conditions with 75% strength retention after 1000 hours in motor oil at 125°C.
Cure Speed vs. Substrate
The rate of cure depends on the substrate material. The graph below shows breakaway strength development over time at 23°C on M10 steel nuts and bolts compared to different materials (tested according to ISO 10964).
Cure Speed vs. Temperature
The rate of cure depends on temperature conditions. The graph below shows breakaway strength development over time at different temperatures on M10 steel nuts and bolts (tested according to ISO 10964).
Application Scenarios
LOCTITE 263 is widely used in heavy-duty applications including:
- Motor housing studs and pump housing nuts
- High-strength fasteners in automotive, aerospace, and industrial machinery
- Sealing and locking components in high-vibration environments like engines and hydraulic systems
