set time for blue Loktite?

[audiopile]

Anybody know what the set time is for Blue Locktite. The clone product I used does not seem to have this information anywhere - probably a wild assumption on my part that it will be similar to the set time of the real product.

24hrs for full set. Also says "cure" starts in 20 min.
Fyi it will also work underwater after the "cure" starts.

I used some ( bl. loc.) about a week ago on 2 pivot screws. Seemed to get firm(hold)

in 10 - 12 min.

It can set immediately if you put it in tight threads that are devoid of oxygen.

...or fix it with Teflon Tape. No waiting time, no glue-mess, much cheeper and same result!

Take special care if you are using this product on areas where it may come into contact with certain types of plastic.

I used some once on the handle of an air pistol and where the Locktite had come into contact with the plastic, the Locktite had reacted with the plastic and melted it.
