I'm not sure. My guess is that in my case, I know that I'm using new nuts and bolts that are in good shape that can handle the torque. In other situations, you will not know if the nut and bolt are somehow compromised and will twist in two if too much torque is applied.
Not sure if you saw my comment, but super glue and epoxy has an almost instant reaction that causes them to bond together. Not sure if different types of epoxy and super glue have different outcomes or how the strength is affected.
@@HacksbyDad yep. I stumbled on it by accident. I had something I needed to glue together that I didn't have a clamp for. So, I put epoxy, I think Elmer's Pro Bond Advanced, on one side and few drops of super glue on the other, in hopes the super glue would set up and hold it until the epoxy hardened. They reacted and set up within seconds.
Loctite does not adhere to plated (non reactive) metals. Would like to see results on untreated fasteners. Loctite does make a primer for plated stuff.

Great test. Thanks
👍😎
why does Loctite say that the fastener will need to be heated to 500F once cured and it breaks away by hand in the video?

Super glue and epoxy? Interesting…

@@mandolinman2006 Thanks. Might be a topic for a future video. LOL
@@HacksbyDad could be of interest. I have no clue how it affects the strength, cutting, or if different types of epoxies affect it differently.
@@mandolinman2006 Thanks!
Interesting comparison. But the purpose of Loctite is to keep a nut from coming loose after vibration and time.....
Thanks!
I think that’s one purpose. The other purpose is to help prevent the nut or bolt from vibrating loose in the first place.

Loctite does adhere to plated metals. It just takes longer to cure.
How come no unloaded coupling nuts?
Cost. The coupling nuts are expensive. 😎
