New Loctite® Quickstix(TM) Primer Ensures Maximum Performance of Anaerobic Machinery Adhesives



Rocky Hill, Conn. - It's neat. It's clean. It's fast. And it couldn't be easier to carry or apply. New Loctite(R) QuickStix(TM) 7088(TM) Primer is the first semisolid primer available to enhance the performance and speed the cure of anaerobic machinery adhesives used in threadlocking, thread sealing, gasketing, and retaining applications. This semisolid primer actually is more effective than liquid primers in speeding adhesive cure.

Loctite(R) QuickStix(TM) 7088(TM) Primer is recommended for use on plated, anodized and galvanized parts, and inactive metals such as titanium, zinc, aluminum and others. It is especially effective on cold metals and challenging assemblies that feature large gaps or deep threads.

The new environmentally-friendly primer is solvent free and VOC compliant, and exhibits reduced odor and decreased flammability over liquid primers. The pocket-sized 17-gram self-feeding stick applicator will never spill and is ideal for use on overhead or hard-to-reach applications. Patented worldwide and available only from Henkel Corporation, this is the first anaerobic primer in a semisolid form.
