Available in four colors—blue, purple, orange, and red—each formula offers a different balance of holding strength and serviceability to suit a variety of applications. Developed through months of testing by ProTek RC racers and engineers, these thread lockers feature an improved applicator tip, updated storage cap, and clearer label instructions. With options ranging from easy-to-remove everyday fastener security to maximum-strength retention, racers can choose the right formula for their maintenance needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Thread Lock\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBlue Thread Lock – Reliable Everyday Fastener Security\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blue formula (PTK-1572) provides dependable holding power while remaining easy to remove with standard hand tools. It is a versatile choice for common metal-to-metal threaded connections where vibration resistance is important but routine maintenance and disassembly are still expected. For racers looking for a practical balance between secure fastening and serviceability, blue is an excellent all-around option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePurple Thread Lock – Light Strength for Small Screws\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe purple formula (PTK-1578) is designed for small fasteners, including screws commonly found on 1\/24-scale RC vehicles, and applications requiring protection against light vibration. Its light-strength hold helps keep small screws from backing out without making future maintenance unnecessarily difficult. Purple Thread Lock can be removed with standard hand tools, making it ideal for small-scale builds and frequently serviced components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eOrange Thread Lock – High Strength with Easier Removal\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe orange formula (PTK-1579) provides high-strength retention for fasteners exposed to heat, such as applications around motors and engines. It offers a stronger hold than light- or medium-strength options while remaining easier to remove than the red maximum-strength formula. Some applications may require heat to loosen the fastener, making orange a useful choice when additional holding power is needed without committing to the most permanent connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eRed Thread Lock – Maximum Strength for Critical Fasteners\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe red formula (PTK-1580) delivers maximum holding strength for critical metal-to-metal connections where a loose screw could cause significant mechanical problems. It is suited to demanding, high-heat applications such as engine mounts, where fastener security is especially important. Removal is difficult and requires direct heat applied to the fastener at approximately 500°F, so red is best reserved for applications where maximum retention takes priority over convenient disassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product-page-features\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour color-coded thread locker options\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue formula for everyday fastener security\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePurple formula for small screws and light vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrange formula for high-strength retention near heat sources\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed formula for maximum-strength fastener retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps prevent screws from loosening during RC operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for metal-to-metal threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved applicator tip for controlled application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpdated cap and clearer label instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10-minute set time and 24-hour full cure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ProTek RC","offers":[{"title":"Blue-PTK-1572","offer_id":67999505547307,"sku":"PTK-1572","price":10.14,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Purple-PTK-1578","offer_id":67999505645611,"sku":"PTK-1580","price":10.14,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Orange-PTK-1579","offer_id":67999505612843,"sku":"PTK-1579","price":10.14,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Red-Ptk-1580","offer_id":67999505580075,"sku":"PTK-1578","price":10.14,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0341\/7337\/files\/ptk-1580_1.webp?v=1792852445","url":"https:\/\/mrgracing.ca\/products\/new-protek-rc-thread-lock-0-5-fl-oz-red-orange-purple","provider":"MRG Racing Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
