  • Serviceable Low-Strength Thread Locking
  • One-Part Anaerobic Application
  • Purple Visual Identification

Product Description

LOCTITE GRD EV Low-Strength Threadlocker is a one-part purple anaerobic liquid for locking and sealing nuts, bolts, and studs while keeping threaded assemblies easy to remove or adjust. The material cures after air is excluded within close-fitting metal threads, forming a low-strength threadlocking layer without mixing. Its serviceable strength profile suits fasteners that may need routine maintenance, alignment changes, or later adjustment with hand tools. The liquid format supports direct application before assembly and provides visible purple identification during use. Applications include threaded fastener retention and sealing where secure positioning is required without the permanent hold of a high-strength grade.

Key features

  • Serviceable Low-Strength Locking: The cured threadlocking layer supports adjustment and removal with hand tools.
  • One-Part Anaerobic Cure: The purple liquid requires no mixing and cures within assembled metal threads.
  • Visible Purple Identification: Distinctive color supports material recognition during application.

Applications / Suitable for

  • Nuts, bolts, and studs requiring easy removal
  • Threaded assemblies requiring later adjustment
  • Low-strength thread locking and sealing
