The Loctite 640 is a green, one‑part methacrylate ester‑based retaining compound designed for securing cylindrical components in industrial assemblies. With its low viscosity and high strength, it is ideal for large‑diameter or active‑metal parts that require extended positioning time. The product cures anaerobically when confined between close‑fitting metal surfaces and is rated for service temperatures from –55 °C to +175 °C when fully cured.

Standout Features and Benefits of Buying the Loctıte Green Retaining Compound Methacrylate Liquid Bottle

  • Low‑viscosity liquid allows excellent penetration into fine gaps.
  • High shear strength (~22 N/mm²) on steel substrates.
  • Diametrical clearance acceptance up to 0.1 mm for slip‑fitted assemblies.
  • Slow cure time (~2 hours on steel) supports accurate part alignment.
  • Wide service‑temperature range (–55 °C to +175 °C) in cured state.

Engineered for Retaining Assembly Integrity

The 640 is engineered to enhance mechanical retention, eliminate backlash in worn assemblies, and prevent fretting or spin‑out of bearings, bushings, sleeves, keys, and splines. The anaerobic curing mechanism activates in the absence of air within confined metal interfaces, providing reliable bonding without mixing or complex preprocessing. Slow‑cure enables longer positioning times for large or complex assemblies, and the product’s green fluorescence under UV allows visual inspection of coverage.

Typical Industrial Applications

  • Retaining bearings or sleeves in housings and on shafts in automation machines.
  • Securing large‑diameter pins, bolts or shafts in gearboxes or heavy machinery.
  • Eliminating backlash and spin‑out in rotor‑to‑shaft assemblies in fractional‑hp motors.
  • Restoring fit in worn or out-of-tolerance assemblies.
  • Retaining keys and splines in base metals or active metals such as brass.
