Works as it should. Excellent product
What else can be said about blue loctite. Use sparingly. A little can go a long way. Easy to use. Great value. Holds screws in place as it should

Handy bolt stabilizer for daily use
I've found the Loctite Blue 242 to be pretty handy when working on bicycles or fixing loose bolts. it keeps things in place without making it impossible to remove later. the medium strength seems just right for most tasks. the 6 ml size is convenient and lasts through several projects. overall, it does what I need without any fuss.

Does Exactly What It’s Supposed to Do
It’s blue Loctite 242. It works as advertised. Keeps fasteners from backing out due to vibration but still allows removal with normal hand tools. I’ve used it on vehicle hardware and other projects where I don’t want bolts walking loose over time. Apply it properly, let it cure, and it does its job. No drama. If you’re working on anything that sees vibration (automotive, motorcycles, equipment), this is a must-have in the toolbox.

Fixed my daughters chair where the bolt kept coming loose
Loctite Blue 242 is basically the secret sauce for anyone tired of screws slowly working themselves loose and falling out like they’ve given up on life. This stuff is the perfect middle ground: strong enough to keep things tight, but not so strong that you need a blowtorch to undo your mistakes later. I picked it up because my daughter’s desk chair kept losing its bolts. Every few days she’d sit down and the whole thing would wobble like it was auditioning for a comedy sketch. Tighten, loosen, repeat — super annoying. One tiny dab of Blue 242 on each bolt and suddenly the chair is as solid as if it came out of the box yesterday. No more surprise acrobatics. Why I like it: It just works. Simple, reliable, and zero drama. Removable without a fight. Hand tools are enough — no heat, no swearing. A little goes a long way. One tube feels like it’ll survive the apocalypse. Great for anything that vibrates loose. Perfect for chairs, bikes, small engines, you name it.

Best stuff to keep your threaded parts together! Can be removed with some effort, not by accident!
I have used this for more than 40 years. Always works. Easy to apply (More is not better). A slim stripe along the threads will do the best and will permit you to break the seal, with some effort. Whatever threads you "locK" will not unthread due to vibration or stress but can be unlocked, if needed. Especially effective on loose or worn threads. A little bit goes a long way. I usually apply it to the threads sparingly for best effect. If you want the threads to permanently NEVER come loose, use the Red. Have always had a tube of this around for the last 40 years. No need to overtorque (tighten) and risk stripping threads or breaking a bolt.
