A DIY version of an industrial vibration test 😁 Nice 👍🏼. I have the same experience from professional tests. Red Loctite is good for moderate vibration. If you had continued the red would likely have lost the clamp load as well even if the nut had stayed on the bolt. If you are not already familiar with it, google Junker test. It’s considered the gold standard for fasteners. Thanks for another good video.

@HacksbyDad Месяц назад

Thanks! Yes, I’ve seen the Junker test but couldn’t figure a diy way to duplicate it. I ran across the testing method used in the aviation industry and based my rig on it. 👍😎

Excellent overview of Loctite Red & Blue! And thank you so much for doing the superglue comparison. We ended up using superglue based on your results as we don’t need resistance to high temperatures. 👌

@agonyman4177 2 месяца назад

That is actually smart approach spring reduces upper forces and vibration and loctite supports vibrations over screw so that's neat - I'm doing the same way if possible on screw connections.

I would recommend trying higher purity isopropyl alcohol. The stuff meant for antiseptic purposes may contain oils meant to avoid drying the skin so much. Try something meant for electronics repairs because those are designed to evaporate to fully clean surface.

For torque purposes loctite is considered a lubricant. A wet torque spec should be used should be used on all the hardware including the control. That said, i think the difference between wet and dry is like 20% so only a 2.2lb value in this case. I don't think it would make or break your experiment.

@HacksbyDad 5 месяцев назад

That's what I thought before conducting this experiment... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SLBx09En_P0.html Watch until the end to find out what the experts at Nord-Lock say as well. 😎

@AGRIV8TD1963 4 месяца назад

Superglue will damage the threads over time. It's corrosive.

@HacksbyDad 4 месяца назад

Interesting… if that’s true, why do manufacturers say their superglue can be used on metal if it will eventually corrode the metal and fail? I might do an experiment. How long before the corrosion will be visible… 1 year? 😎

@1arm_658 Год назад

The hardware looks like it may be plated in some way. Please note that Loctite needs active metal ions to fully cure. If you have corrosion resistant hardware, you have to use Loctite primer to get full cure. Super Glue or CA adhesive does not need active metal ions.

@HacksbyDad Год назад

Sort of. Zinc is more of a passive metal than an active metal. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MAyIH4i6ryI.html

@@HacksbyDad Potential to fail. If fact, the best way to use Loctite is to apply it to the threads, then let it set up for a few minutes, then attach nut, torque as needed. Because the act of screwing on the nut, heats up the threads enough to make the Loctite fluid again. Therefore proper penetration.

@agonyman4177 2 месяца назад

You missed one thing, tension works out of screw so if you put that much force on whole screw you would need to weld it actually to not allow it to break on any poilimeric substance glue... If you put it to cure properlly with acutally less loctite ( it shouldnt go over screw cap to get full cure inside because polimers are not sealeants agains air and need longer activation time in this case ) so this is not relevant test for vibration resistance, what u tested here is resistance against upper forces for screw hold kappa. 2/10
