LOCTITE® Sticks- These Things Are Awesome!

1. This looks nice but I'm still going to use whatever the shop supplies unfortunately. The antiseize in particular looks awesome!

2. Good video, for the gaskets even back in the 70s we used vaseline/ petroleum jelly to hold the gasket, and always used it on the paper type gaskets in the water/cooling system

3. That high tact stuff I could have used just last week. Putting in a new air control valve for the emissions on a 3800 series 3.. Its rust belt so taking the flexible hose off the exhaust manifold gauranteed a snapped stud on the backside of the engine, so I had to line up the part, the bracket and the gasket and the gasket kept moving on me even with RTV on it. I finally just got some high temp RTV after destroying 2 gaskets and stuck it together and its fine. But I would much rather use a proper gasket.

4. Im still using the old style liquid, Ive seen you use these before, next time Im ordering that pack.

5. Great call Eric! Didn't know about these! Neeeeeeeed noooowww!

6. Put the red on like lipstick and say "I'm so pretty 😚". (Just kidding). Have seen and used properly before. Interesting.

7. Glue sticks for adults. I actually wouldn't mind the kit, just so I have them all available. I hate running to the store for 1 little item like that.

8. I remember the first appearance of these on the channel, nice to see they are still as good as the first review.

9. The gasket stick is a game changer.

10. Just don't mistake one of the tubes for your lip balm lol.

11. This is just one example of why I subscribed to ETCG channel a few years ago. I'm retired, but help out a former customer now and then for exercise and extra cash. Just yesterday I was working on a truck carburetor that had a tiny gasket that needed to be held in place with something tacky while the two parts were assembled. Wish I had watched this video a week ago. Thanks Eric.

12. I found these from one of your previous videos and bought them on Amazon soon after. They are great! Is that purple one an anaerobic material?

13. Honestly, we have used them and find two issues. Still convenient outside of these two:

    None of them have closed air tight or there is an issue with the formulation so the blue (torque release, high strength) became more like chapstick than lipstick about half wa through both sticks (openned and used about 6 months appart).

    Do not apply well on small than say M10 fine thread bolts. There is just no way around the thicker consistency…even before they turn to the consistentcy mentioned above.

    We will continue to use the liquid for most things as it works in all applications and you can buy multiple small tubes for the price of one stick…so if one tube goes bad it is no big deal.

14. I've been using these sticks for a long time. Way better than the liquid stuff that dispenses to fast, runs, or is difficult to work with when you're laying on the ground.

15. I use those sticks all the time. The liquid is a nuisance.

16. I appreciate that the sponsored product is something I'd actually consider, I'll check these out especially that gasket one good call on including that. I use the red rubber cement like gasket goop a lot but the worthless brush applicators are frustrating.

17. Great Xmas gift.

18. I used those starting several years ago but they have quarks. If ANY oil or grease touches the loctite, either something on the bolt threads or from dirty hands/fingers it causes the loctite to harden up on the end like a crust you have to scrape off with s fingernail or razor. Plus the last like 10% doesn’t come out with the twist knob so you have to scrape it out with something like a pick or screwdriver to apply it. I eventually switched back to liquid loctite and also seems like you get more for the money with liquid form as well. I do still use anti-seize in the stick though.

19. Yeah I noticed for a while now you were using these Loctite sticks, and I was hoping you would talk about them at some point. I'm glad you did!

    They're literally grown up versions of glue sticks. Something that was so easy to use for kids, can be the same for grown ups.

    Seriously, dealing with copper anti-seize in liquid form is a nightmare, even when you're super careful. Gonna have to pick these up now. Thanks, Eric!

20. I just use Elmer's glue

21. the stick anti seize is best idea. you know where using the brush anti seize. some how they get on every where.

22. Hang on , where's my digital confectionary?
    Oh , ok … wrong channel and it's not my birthday !
    Peace and love brother 👍🏻☮♥️

23. Handy stuff does the blue smell as nice as liquid locktite, I prefer the copper grease spray really handy.

24. Jesus Eric. A little dab-a-do-ya. No need to slather it on ao thickly.

25. I tried these. They are not bad at all especially for work on our cars on our driveway.
