## Description

The green colored Loctite retaining compound 609 is a perfect solution for heavy bearing retention. It dries fast on applying and is non-greasy. True to what it assures, it doesn’t require air for cure. This Anaerobic adhesive has low viscosity and comes in 10 ml bottles. Don’t think twice; avoid creaks and rattling of machinery with this ultra useful product.

Review: Perfect for one-time use! - I needed some loctite 609 to mount an optic on my Glock. This is the type of product I would probably use once and then what's leftover would dry out on a shelf in the next few years. A small tube of this is perfect for a one-time use such as this. Remember, this number 609 (green) is semi-permanent. Removing fasteners requires heating them up to separate.
Review: Bike BB30 application - be careful! - I use this for BB30 bottom brackets on bikes. The idea is to prevent the inevitable creak. Be careful not to use too much! I think that was my problem on first use. It worked great; no creak. But when it came time to replace the BB due to worn bearings, it could not be removed (with proper tools). I finally had to take a dremel and cut through the metal bearing retainers to cut into the plastic BB housing to get it out! I *think* I didn't damage my bike's BB shell at all...but be careful! Use a tiny amount only. And remember: BB30 bottom brackets are not meant to be removed, other than when replaced. You have to hammer them out, and that means they are not reinstallable.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you dissamble items that have had this applied?  It was advised for use in assmbling a barrel to an upper receiver.**
A: Do not use any type of thread lock on the barrel nut. Use anti-seize compond, tighten the nut to 35-40 inch pounds at least three times, then tighten to final torque. I usually do it at 45-55 inch pounds

**Q: Is the consistency of the product somewhat thick or water runny.  I bought some other brand, and it is like water and messes up painted surfaces...**
A: It's thin liquid as well. I use a tiny fine detail paint brush to apply. Toothpick works pretty good too.I use it to hold the pinion gear on small electric motors for your radio controlled helicopters and have to be careful not to get it in the motor bearings or it will seize them up. Definitely have to be careful with this stuff and even regular Loctite threadlock as they will eat plastic and other stuff.

**Q: Will this work to keep bearing/hub grease covers from popping off of trailer hubs ? can it handle the temps created by trailer disk brakes.?**
A: This product is rated to 150° F. Typical hub temps for a disc brake wheel can reach 200°. I would say this product would not be ideal. A temp reading of your hub would help. Depending on how much work your trailer brakes are doing, they might be lower. A temp reading of your hubs would help. It might be better than nothing but loctite 620 might be best for your application.

**Q: Is this suitable for retaining an a/c compressor clutch bearing ( sanden on a jeep xj )? or is loctite 638 better? thx!**
A: I do not know.  Never  had that situation.  You may get a good answer by contacting LOCTITE on their web site.
