Permatex25210 High Strength Removable Threadlocker Orange Liquid, 10 ml

BEWAREUsed this on a bunch of M4 button head socket cap screws in a build with 2020 extrusions and drawer slides for a vehicle - worked great, no rattles, easy to use, etc…However - I’m now switching out the slides to something stronger, something I didn’t anticipate needing to do, and it’s been brutal. The M4 screws have a 2.5mm hex head, and so far it’s been impossible to get the proper amount of torque on the screws before stripping them. The only way I’ve been able to get them out successfully so far is by heating each individual screw up with a small butane torch until it gets to around 250° F, then applying strong constant pressure to turn them - this method is 5 for 5 at this point, and now I’m out of butane.What have I learned? Using blue on these M4’s would have ended up saving me what I’m estimating to be 4-6 hours of work in the end. Orange is awesome for an M8 or bigger, maybe an M6, but not for small screws where I can’t get the needed torque.

This is that perfect middle between the removable locktite and permanent. It works like a permanent, but if you need it to, it'll let go without tearing stuff up or making you want to throw a breaker bar. Holds up good, haven't had any issues with it. I haven't used it for anything needing over 100ft-lbs of torque, but everything else has been fine.Gave it 3-stars for "easy to remove" because...on one hand it shouldn't be easy to remove, but on the other hand for those wondering about getting it off stuff they've used it on, it's probably about as easy as removable locktite.Only gripe I have is I wish the cap had some wings or a square shape or something that would make it easier to open with one hand. As it is, it can be a bit frustrating to open up if you're in the middle of holding a part or a set of bolts.

The Permatex 25210 High Strength Removable Threadlocker Orange Liquid, 10 ml, is an excellent choice for those seeking a reliable threadlocker that combines strength with removability. This hybrid formula offers the holding power of red threadlocker while allowing disassembly with hand tools, eliminating the need for heat. It's particularly effective in high-vibration environments, such as automotive and industrial applications, ensuring fasteners remain secure over time. With three times the strength of blue threadlocker, it provides a robust hold while still being serviceable when necessary. This product is ideal for those who need a strong yet removable solution for securing fasteners.

This is very good like red loctite but if you ever plan on removing the item use this red can only be removed with heat this one can melt with alcohol

This stuff works well. It's difficult to find this color and strength in stores. Permatex is great, don't fall for the knock off brands. I use only permatex after experimenting with some cheaper stuff.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Awesome mid strength holder. Love the jell form of product.

Seems to work well , I haven't had to take things apart yet so I can't comment on that but definitely works better than the blue.

good stuff.this bottle is massive, don't let the pictures fool you into thinking this will work for your tiny bolts on your robot.this is for large semi-truck nonsense.
