Talk:Loctite

message: I removed the notability notice because Loctite is the only brand of threading adhesive I am aware of, so it does deserve an article since it's an important tool in some situations. If it were one of several "threadlocking adhesives" then that article should be written and this one deleted, but I don't believe that's the case. Also, I removed what was basically advertising from the article; it sounded like it was even plagiarized from the company's website. CGameProgrammer 07:35, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There are certainly other threadlockers. For instance, Devcon makes a SuperLock series. Nonetheless, LocTite is probably the best-known threadlocker, and probably does deserve an article of its own. jhawkinson 20:02, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Not only probably the best-known threadlocker, in my experience it is close to becoming a genericized trademark.  BMJ-pdx (talk) 13:42, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
thread_title: Rewrite on 19 February 2007

message: I think there should be a separate page for Loctite's threadlockers. The info from this article about "theadlocker grades" should be moved there, instead of taking up space on the main Loctite page. It doesn't make sense to devote space here to the different grades of Loctite's threadlockers, unless we are also going to include information about all the other Loctite products.
And I think the link to the MSDS for Loctite 242 should be removed. There are literally hundreds of MSDS pages on Loctite's website, so we shouldn't try to link to each one individually.

replies: text: Go ahead and add more information about other loctite products here. It's not like the page is very full. As a practical matter, threadlocker grades are a common question about loctite products and it makes sense to have them here. If the page were a lot longer, moving them out might make sense, but it's not... jhawkinson 18:30, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Loctite Threadlocker Page? 

message: Is it possible that Loctite is something like a pun on "lock tight"? (Because it locks stuff tightly)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.59.16.53 (talk) 21:00, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is not a "pun." It is certainly a trademark based on the idea that it locks things tightly, yes. This is probably not worth mentioning in the article. jhawkinson (talk) 03:36, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pun? 

message: Why does PLASTIC PADDING redirect to Loctite? I'm searching for a producer with this name. (If it is one first ;)) On this site  it is listed as a brand together with Loctite and others. (only on danish side) So a redirect makes no sense. - @work Anonym 14 Jan 2010  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.64.188.53 (talk) 10:25, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I've fixed the redirect; it now redirects to Henkel because it is a Henkel brand name. Wizard191 (talk) 16:08, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

message: I don't think anaerobic is an ingredient.  It is an adjective/modifier that means "without oxygen." I did a quick search and no product came up. Ileanadu (talk) 03:25, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Anaerobic 

message: "Anaerobic" should have a Wikipedia article (not just a Wiktionary entry). I find it rather mysterious how the lack of something (in this case, oxygen) can cause a chemical reaction. Or in other words, how the presence of oxygen prevents a chemical reaction, without itself being consumed in some way. (According to the Catalysis article, catalysts only increase the rate of a chemical reaction, although I seem to recall, perhaps mistakenly, that they can also (mysteriously) decrease the rate.)
