Loctite Freeze & Release Penetrating Oil Loosens Rusted Bolts
The exceptional shock-freeze effect of this penetrating oil causes microscopic cracks in the layer of rust, allowing the lubricating ingredient to wick directly into the rust by capillary action.
Loctite
Freeze & Release penetrating oil instantly freezes seized and
rusted bolts, nuts and studs down to -45°F (-43°C). The exceptional
shock-freeze effect of this penetrating oil causes microscopic cracks
in the layer of rust, allowing the lubricating ingredient to wick
directly into the rust by capillary action. The rusted bolt assembly
can be easily dismantled after allowing only 1-2 minutes penetration
time.
Product Features & Benefits
- Shock freezing, -45°F (-43°C) is a quick and convenient method for
releasing seized and rusted bolts, nuts and screws. The penetrating oil
provokes differential thermal contraction of the parts due to the
abrupt, nearly instantaneous freezing. Cracks opened in the layer of
rust allow penetration of the lubricating ingredient.
- Capillary effect achieves fast and efficient wicking of
the penetrating oil into the layer of rust (capillary effect is the
ability of liquids to wet freely the surface of objects and wick very
quickly into hairline cracks, even up a height against the force of
gravity).
-
Released parts remain lubricated and protected from corrosion.
