High load retention with Loctite 638

Practical benefits
  • Reliable cylindrical parts assembly: You secure sleeves, gears, and pulleys against heavy dynamic loads and severe vibrations.
  • Effective gap filling performance: You bridge diametral clearances up to 0.25 mm for a rigid structural bond.
  • Strong resistance to heat: You maintain dependable joint strength in operating temperatures from -55 °C to 180 °C.

In a nutshell

The right choise for

With Loctite 638 retaining compound, you secure cylindrical metal parts firmly against severe vibrations and heavy dynamic loads. Supplied in a 50 ml bottle, this anaerobic retaining adhesive bridges diametral clearances up to 0.25 mm and provides uniform stress distribution across shafts, bearings, bushings, and gears. Thanks to its good oil tolerance, the liquid cures reliably even through minor surface contamination. You also gain dependable joint strength across an operating temperature range of -55 °C to 180 °C, eliminating costly high-tolerance machining and preventing premature wear during maintenance.
