Loctite and grease

[cncsignman]

Is there a universal loctite that will work on all areas? I see about 5 different loctite numbers in the manual.
Also... Need to grease the drive shaft splines and pump some in the flywheel. Will regular marine grease work for all areas? This is what I bought today.

I use standard marine grease on them.

So what I bought should work?

Each Loctite has it own specific job. Be more specific on what you need the loctite for.

Here is the grease I use for the driveline

I rebuilt the pumps and replaced the drive line carbon seals and boots. Manual calls for several different numbers of loctite for this.

OK, so I just went and looked at the pump on the microfiche. I see Loctite 518 and 242 and primer N and 217 for the impeller to shaft and 592 for the cone plug . So, you can skip the primer just clean everything really good with acetone. 518 is an anerobic sealer----it requires no air to dry for between surfaces. The 242 is a thread locker---removable, blue in color. I have both on hand. The 217 for the impeller shaft to impeller......I use grease, not loctite. The cone plug...use 518 or I just use teflon plumbers tape.


#19 is 271
#39 is 242
#40 is 518
#42 is 592
#43 is the primer

I personally use "Green Grease" anymore. It's synthetic, and waterproof. And the best part is... it doesn't melt, and liquefy like a lot of other greases will.


As above... there's a bunch of different jobs, and Loctite is a brand, and not necessarily a "Thread locker."
