Frequently Asked Questions

What color is this threadlocker and what does it mean?

RED — Permatex RED is the removable, medium-strength formula. It holds fasteners securely but can be broken loose with standard hand tools if service is needed.

Do I need lock washers or nylon-insert lock nuts if I use this?

No. This liquid threadlocker replaces them, eliminating the need for additional hardware.

How long does it take to cure?

Full cure time varies by ambient temperature and fastener fit. Allow 24 hours before operating the motorcycle under load for best results.

Will this work on all my fasteners?

It works on most threaded fasteners in engines and frames. Avoid using on fasteners that need frequent disassembly or on plated surfaces without test-fitting first.

How much do I apply per fastener?

A small drop on the threads is sufficient — typically 2-3 drops per fastener depending on hole size.
