Loctite Problems

[Jeff K.]

We found that the plastic spacers do not like Loctite. The Loctite was eating up the spacers and they would crumble apart and make one mess to clean up.:( Anyone else have this problem?

[Don Rotolo]

Yes, plastic and Loctite are generally enemies of each other. The Loctite package says that, too. There is a type of loctite that is plastic-compatible, but I ahve never tried it.

We've used it with plastic in the past with success, just not sure why this time it didn't work. Who reads packages at 4 in the morning??

There is another thread about Loctite's ability to dissolve the plastic comonents on our robot electronics.
