Anyone know the correct loctite for the primary drain plug, and where can I get it from ?
The manual states 565 pipe sealant. Searched the web and can`t seem to find it anywhere. Thanx in advance.:confused: :confused:
 
Re: loctite

No loctite, it should seal itself up, depends on year, most are tapered.
Don't tighten it too much.

I never use anything, never had even a snifter of a leak.

PTFE Tape

from any plumbers merchants.
 
Re: loctite

Ian, use the PTFE tape as Baza suggests, i`ve been using it for years on me plugs. Thing to remember is don`t overtighten them.
Glad to see you`ve joined the club, not the same as the other "club" you and i were in! :rolleyes:
 
Re: loctite

Thanx for the advice. PTFE tape it is then. I thought I had better check with people that know more about it than me . ( save some money as well ). I couldn`t NOT join the club Steve, this site is worth every penny..and hope to see you in August:) :)
