Technical Data Sheet Product 603 Worldwide Version, October 1995 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Used to bond cylindrical fitting parts, particularly where consistently clean surfaces cannot be assured. Applications include retaining roller bearings or oil impregnated bushings into housings. 100 % of Full Strength on steel PRODUCT DESCRIPTION LOCTITE® Product 603 is a single component anaerobic retaining adhesive for cylindrical joints. The product cures when confined in the absence of air between close fitting metal surfaces. This product develops adhesion even on surfaces lightly contaminated with oil. 5m 0.0 m 75 50 m 15 0. m m 25 0. 25 m 0 5min10min 30min 1hr 3hr 6hr Cure Time, Hours 24hr 72hr PROPERTIES OF UNCURED MATERIAL 125 100 to 150 135 >93 90 to 180 % of Full Strength on steel TYPICAL CURING PERFORMANCE Cure speed vs. substrate The rate of cure will depend on substrate used.

Ensure joint is completely filled with adhesive. For slip fitted assemblies this is achieved by applying adhesive around the pin and the leading edge of the collar and using a rotating motion during assembly to ensure good coverage. For press fitted assemblies adhesive should be applied thoroughly to both bond surfaces and assembled at high press on rates. For shrink fitted assemblies the adhesive should be coated onto the pin, the collar should then be heated to create sufficient clearance for free assembly. Parts should not be disturbed until sufficient handling strength is achieved. This grade has the ability to cure through thin films of most protective oils. Some oils contain rust inhibitors (e.g. sodium nitrate) which will chemically inhibit the adhesive cure. Cure speed and final strength on oiled surfaces will be affected, depending on the type and amount of oil used.
