Applying the locking compound
1. Clean both the internal and external threads.
Degrease the thread with a suitable
degreasing agent which leaves no residue
that could affect proper functioning.
2. Apply one or more drops of locking
compound to the thread, depending on the
diameter. Never dip the bolt or stud fully into
the locking compound.
3. Apply a drop of oil under the bolt head.
Locking compounds also reduce the
frictional resistance, which means that
applying a drop of oil to the thread is not
required.
4. Tighten the connection to the specified
torque.
