Increasing cost-efficiency without reducing performance

CASES-Starter-Generator-case-02-Challenge

Our customer rebuilds automotive starters and alternators. They wanted to replace their current threadlocking solution with a more cost-efficient product and also have access to more local technical support. 

The replacement solution had to offer all this and be able to withstand automotive heat and associated conditions.

A strong combination meets all needs

Henkel Adhesive Technologies’ LOCTITE® team recommended LOCTITE® 243 and LOCTITE® 416. Together these solutions provided quick-curing bonding that successfully sealed the company’s steel fasteners in challenging environmental conditions. As well as this, our customer now has fast access to local technical support.
