Locktite 565 Thread Sealant Instructions
Most modern vehicles have sensors within their fluid systems to monitor levels, temperatures and pressures. These sensors --- oil pressure, coolant temperature and brake fluid level, for example --- are under constant pressure and can slowly leak through the threads holding them in place. Loctite 565 thread sealer creates a seal within the threads to prevent this fluid from leaking.
Instructions
- 1
Remove the component you intend to use the Loctite 565 sealer on, and clean the male and female threads with a clean, lint-free cloth.
2Apply a medium-sized bead of the Loctite thread sealer around the male leading threads of the component, but do not put sealer on the first threads.
3Fill the valleys of the threads by spreading the Loctite sealer with a small, firm-bristled paintbrush.
4Apply a thin bead of sealer to the female threads.
5Reinstall the removed component. Allow the sealer to cure for at least 24 hours prior to letting any fluid reach this component.
