Description

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Permatex® ScrewGlue Repair Gel is a medium strength,
threadlocking adhesive designed to restore stripped screws
and holes. This liquid product is a single component,
anaerobic gel that cures when confined in the absence of air
between close fitting metal surfaces, ideal for all 6mm to
25mm (1/4 inch to 1 inch) diameter threaded assemblies.
ScrewGlue Repair Gel excels at mending metal-to-metal
threads for both interior and exterior applications, due to the
excellent chemical and temperature resistance. The cured
assembly is easily adjustable or removable with hand tools.

such as rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover (acetone)
and allow to dry.

material beyond tip.
3. Apply gel within the engagement area (usually 5-6
threads) of the male fitting.

5. Wipe away any bleed-out or spills with a clean cloth and
small amount of cleaning solvent if necessary.
For Disassembly

because of excessive engagement length, apply localized
heat to nut or bolt to approximately 450F (232C).
3. Disassemble while hot.
For Reassembly
1. Remove loose product from nut and bolt using a stiff wire
brush and cleaning solvent.
