Loctite BLUE 243

Post by Jims68 »

OK... so I am looking at the Loctite 243 Blue on Ebay and Amazon... and I see 50 ml bottles with CHINESE lettering. What's the deal? Is it the same stuff as a bottle with English lettering? :thinking I also see it with Spanish on the front of the bottle... Anyone have any experience with the "Foreign" versions?

I believe Loctite's parent company is Scandinavian. They offer their products globally. I have purchased quite a number of the various Loctite products from China Ebay sellers and have found them to be identical to the US marketed products.

I purchased the 250ml bottles. My heirs 10+ generations from now on will still be utilizing it to secure Spacely sprockets on the Jetson family car.

Thanks for that information! I was thinking of the 10ml bottle.

I like the Jetson's reference too! I wonder if the Jetson's car is electric? :thinking :lol:

Correction: Loctite was acquired in 1997 by Henkel, a German Fortune 500 company.

Now, I always thought sweptline owners were at the top of the food chain when it came to intelligence. I'm disappointed with you guys. Obviously, the Jetson family car is powered from dilithium crystals. You all need to view some re-runs of Star Trek, as a refresher course in modern physics.
