Vibra-TITE 12250 Oil Tolerant Threadlocker
Vibra-TITE 12250 is a 50ml, medium viscosity, thixotropic, anaerobic threadlocking adhesive designed for all types of metal, threaded fasteners. It delivers controlled medium strength once cured, along with good resistance to temperature, water, and nonpolar solvents. This threadlocker is oil tolerant, meaning it cures rapidly even on plated, oily metal surfaces or otherwise inactive surfaces—making it a reliable choice where pre-cleaning isn't always practical.
How Does Vibra-TITE 12250 Perform Once Cured?
Once cured, Vibra-TITE 12250 provides controlled medium-strength locking performance. This level of strength allows fasteners to be removed with standard hand tools when maintenance or disassembly is required, while still resisting loosening from vibration.
Its cured performance also includes:
- Good temperature resistance
- Good solvent resistance against water and nonpolar solvents
- Rapid curing on plated, oily, or inactive metal surfaces
