What is Thread Lock 242?
Thread Lock 242 is a blue, anaerobic adhesive—meaning it cures in the absence of air between metal surfaces. It’s specifically formulated for threaded fasteners between 1/4″ and 3/4″ in diameter.
Once applied, it prevents loosening due to vibration, thermal expansion, or physical stress. Unlike high-strength threadlockers, 242 is removable with hand tools, making it ideal for serviceable assemblies.
Key Features & Benefits
Medium Strength – Fully Removable
While GH1200 Thread Lock 242 offers firm holding power, it doesn’t permanently lock your fasteners. This makes it ideal for components that may need future servicing, adjustments, or repairs.
Resistant to Vibration & Shock
Common causes of mechanical failure like engine movement, power tool vibrations, or repeated use can lead to bolts backing out over time. GH1200 242 Glue stops this by locking threads in place, significantly improving operational safety.
Seals Against Leakage & Rust
By filling the space between mating threads, this adhesive forms a seal that protects against moisture, oil, chemicals, and air, preventing corrosion and fluid leakage, even in demanding environments.
Fast Initial Set, Full Cure in 24 Hours
With a 10-minute set time, the product allows for minor repositioning during assembly while quickly stabilizing. After 24 hours, it reaches full strength for maximum holding performance.
Temperature and Weather Resistant
Designed to withstand a wide range of environmental conditions, GH1200 242 remains effective in both hot and cold environments, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
