Permatex 24010 Medium Strength Threadlocker Blue Gel, 10 g Gel Twist Applicator

This stuff is amazing. I work on computers a lot and often see small amounts of blue threadlocker painted on precision screws in laptops - particularly Apple computers. I had a lot of customers with missing screws from the bottom of their aging MacBooks so I started keeping spares with my screwdrivers, but I noticed the new ones also came with blue threadlocker on them so I decided to buy some myself and try it out. The gel tube seemed like the least messy way to use it so I bought a tube, now I use it for EVERYTHING including laptop screen hinge screws, bottom case screws, bicycle component bolts, suspension parts on my car, the shower handle that keeps coming loose - you name it I'll put threadlocker on there because it works. My bicycle handlebars start to vibrate loose one night riding down a large hill, so I tightened up the loose bolts when I stopped. As soon as I got home I took the bolts out and reinstalled with threadlocker. Now I can be sure I won't have to worry about them wiggling loose again. I keep a twist tube of blue threadlocker with my precision screwdrivers for this and all other screws I don't want to come undone due to vibration. It can be a little messy, but here's what works best for me: Usually I put a strong magnet on the screwdriver first Then I put the screw on the tip of the driver Then I twist out a tiny bit of threadlocker and stick the tip of the screw into using the screwdriver as a handle And finally install the screw A bit of blue threadlocker usually squeezes out of the threads and builds up around the screw head, if it's not too much I just leave it there. I try not to touch the threadlocker with my fingers since it's sticky and will get everywhere. Even if you can't see it, your fingers will make everything very sticky, so I use it sparingly and try not to get it on my skin.

Although it is not the usual loctite brand it worked excellent. I put it in and let it cure for 24 hours before I rode my bicycle but my axle is not coming loose anymore

Works well in many different applications, drying time...i recommend allowing it to dry for a few hours depending on room temperature, application of the gel works better it's not leaking onto other things, the blue is medium strength usually can be broken loose but on smaller screws when you really can't apply a lot of torque it can be a little tough.

get the gel! 1000 times better than the liquid!

I tried the Permatex 24010 Medium Strength Threadlocker, and wow, it’s like magic for screws! When I used it, I couldn’t believe how well it kept everything in place. I was helping my dad fix some stuff, and we put a little bit of the threadlocker on the screws before we screwed them in, and they didn’t move at all! It’s like the screws turned into superheroes that can’t be defeated. It’s really easy to use too! I just put a tiny drop of the threadlocker on the screw threads, and then I tightened them. It didn’t make a mess, and the screws stayed nice and tight, even after we used the machine on them. I thought they might loosen up, but they stayed put! I think this threadlocker is the best because it’s super strong, but not too strong. You don’t need to use a lot, and it works just right. I don’t have to worry about my screws falling out anymore! It’s like a secret tool that makes everything stay in place.

Use the liquid before, the gel is definetly a game changer! Love it for my gunsmith projects!

Used in applications where regular Loctite wou!d drip and be a mess. I squeezed a small amount out on a clean disposable surface and literally applied it with a toothpick and that worked we in the confined workspace that I was in. I have used as directed as well. I have used Loctite for decades and always keep blue, red and purple in my shop.

Super great product, gel is so much better than liquid

Expensive, but excellent and long-lasting. Closely monitor the package, however, the turning part is easly broken and the product package tends to weep out the contents

Excelente producto. Altamente recomendable cuando se aplican los tornillos cuando se cambian fluido y filtro de transmisión automática.

good stuff........ Dont waste as much as with the other regular stuff. easier to control how much comes out

I left it for days and it didnt dry!!! I had the same issue with the orange bottle!! This brand is total garbage! ! Its a good way to wast of your time and money! 👎🤬👎

Best in the business for a reason. Love this stuff.
