FAQ's of Loctite LB 8008:
Q: How should Loctite LB 8008 be applied to threaded assemblies?
A: Apply Loctite LB 8008 directly onto clean metal surfaces using a brush, spatula, or the brush top packaging. Ensure complete coverage of threads, bolts, or flanges before assembly to maximize anti-seize protection and lubrication benefits.
Q: What types of environmental conditions can Loctite LB 8008 withstand?
A: Loctite LB 8008 is engineered to perform in extreme temperatures, from -30C to +870C. Its water-resistant and non-flammable characteristics make it suitable for both wet and high-heat industrial settings, providing reliable corrosion protection and lubrication.
Q: When is it beneficial to use Loctite LB 8008?
A: Use Loctite LB 8008 whenever you assemble threaded metal parts, especially in high-temperature or moist environments where seizing, galling, or corrosion is a risk. It is particularly valuable during equipment maintenance or installation.
Q: Where is Loctite LB 8008 commonly used?
A: Loctite LB 8008 is commonly utilized on metal surfaces such as bolts, pipes, valves, flanges, and threaded assemblies, particularly in factories and industries throughout India that demand high-temperature resistance and corrosion protection.
Q: What is the benefit of using a copper-based anti-seize compound like Loctite LB 8008?
A: The copper content in Loctite LB 8008 enhances its ability to prevent metal-to-metal contact, reducing wear, preventing seizing, and simplifying disassembly, even after prolonged exposure to heat and harsh environments.
Q: Does Loctite LB 8008 require a curing process before use?
A: No, Loctite LB 8008 is a paste lubricant, not an adhesive, so it does not require curing. Once applied, it provides immediate lubrication and anti-seize protection.
Q: How should Loctite LB 8008 be stored for optimal shelf life?
A: Store Loctite LB 8008 below 25C in its original, sealed container. Under these conditions, its shelf life is up to 36 months, maintaining its effectiveness and consistency.
