Retaining Compounds
Secure bearings, bushings, and cylindrical parts into housings or onto shafts
Used across a broad range of mechanical components, as well as for bearings, shafts, and cylinder liners, retaining compounds are most commonly found within the automotive and heavy machinery industries. However, they can also be used in any industry where metal-to-metal adhesion is required for moving parts. Additionally, retaining compounds help manufacturers to avoid unnecessary machining of a broad range of mechanical components during MRO.
Advantages of Retaining Products:
- Higher strength with simplified and less costly designs
- Reduced dependence on machining tolerances
- Corrosion and fretting prevention
- Even load and stress distribution over the joint

Problems with Conventional Assembly Methods That LOCTITE® Retaining Products Can Help Overcome:
- Pins, key/keyway assemblies have uneven distribution of mass, an imbalance that can lead to vibration at high speeds
- Splines and serrations cause high stresses due to the “notch effect” that occurs in the area of a key. And have high machining costs
- Clamp rings, press fits, shrink fits, and taper fits rely on friction alone to transmit torque, therefore they are limited by material, surfaces, and design. Close tolerances are needed to obtain specific load capacities, leading to high production costs
When Used in Combination with Interference Fits, LOCTITE® Retaining Compounds Allow
- Higher load transmission and better performance with existing designs and geometry
- Equal performance with relaxed tolerances
- Reductions in the size and weight of an assembly
