1. Product Overview

LOCTITE® 542 is an acrylic-based, medium-strength, anaerobic thread-sealing adhesive designed for locking and sealing metal pipes and fittings. It prevents loosening and leakage due to shock and vibration. The thixotropic nature minimizes migration after application.

2. Applications

  • Suitable for sealing metal pipe threads and fittings
  • Prevents leakage in pressurized systems
  • Used in hydraulic and pneumatic systems
  • Recommended for applications requiring medium-strength locking
