Much like a newborn child, the first few moments of your engine's life are crucial for its long-term well-being. Don't let your hard work go to waste - use Red Line assembly lube to protect engine components during those first vital moments after initial start-up, when no lubrication is present. Red Line's special formula provides 3x more film strength than conventional assembly lubricants, and it works great as a corrosion inhibitor during those long-term engine builds that spend a lot of time in storage. Best of all, it's designed not to clog filters like many assembly lubricants have a tendency to.

Threadlocker is essential when doing any work to your car, especially prepping it for the track. Loose bolts should never happen! If you are a do-it-youselfer, or do much wrench turning, then you know about threadlocker (generically known as "locktite" or by the brand name Loctite). You also know a little goes a long way. This small bottle of Palm Labs Turbo-Lock blue threadlock is perfect for that small job -- or a few small jobs! This tube has 10 mL (0.34 fluid ounces) of moderate temp, medium-strength threadlocker. This bottle comes with two ways to apply: with a squeeze or with the included brush. There are just too many different uses for this, and no mechanic or DIYer, should be without some in his or her toolbox.

Red or Blue threadlocker? Red is the highest strength so use it when the fastener will not be removed regularly or ever again. The Red will need a great amount of force to break free and maybe even heat. Blue is the medium strength and will break free with hand tools. Use it for fasteners that need extra locking protection but will be removed / disassmebled on a semi-regular basis.

Palm Labs Turbo-Lock Blue Features:
  • color: blue
  • Anaerobic Thread-locking Compound
  • permanent
  • medium strength
  • moderate temperature resistant
  • oil resistant
  • primerless
  • acceptable up to 20mm (3/4") bolts
    Equivalent or superior to Loctite 242.
