Is this unit strong enough to dislodge bolts locked by RED loctite or thread lock?

If a heat gun can do it, this one can. It will depend on the size of the bolt, and if it's really held on by corrosion, not the Loctite......

Since I can not see it and lucite comes in different formulations I can not be positive. Now with that said, So far I have use this to melts plastics, glue, strips tape. I purchased this replace my older heat gun which somehow vanish from our last move. This Dewalt has multiple heat settings and two speeds and since I own an electronic thermometer no need to pay a premium.

Yes. In fact that is what I used the lug for. I did need to remove the sling swivel from my gun to install. It is also very well built and solid.I see another review at indicated his came loose, I also had that problem upon initial installation but after I retightened I've had no further issues and did not use loctite. Good luck.

When locked it takes some force to opne. No worries it won't break just give it a good strong pull and it'll open.

No, would not recommend bolting, the draw slides in an and out, also the end of the cable is what the lock latches on too.

I do not know if they are planning a stronger locking lever. We have not had any problems with our lock. I have hung full lines of laundry including washed queen-size quilts and had no issues with the lock.

Yes. There would be two things to keep in mind. One the bolts are a bit soft so take extra care to not strip the heads. Two some of the bolts have a "locking feature" on the threads. This prevents the bolts from backing out under load. The more you take it apart the more this coating comes off. This isn't a problem since you can get some liquid thread locker, like loctite blue, and apply as necessary.

Just tight the bolt strong enough and it should be fine, if its loose be sure to tighten a bit.

I'm curious as to the discrepancies between answers here. Has anyone besides Buck actually tested the torque function on left/reverse threaded bolts? I can confirm that my Tekton 3/8" does NOT work to torque left threaded bolts.

Yes, I used it for the Dexter style locks. It just doesn't work well for dead bolts.

I couldn't find any, but there is the suggestion of red thread locker in the instructions. I put mine on "mega tight" with red thread-loc.

I will be very short. It loosen monster frozen bolts like nothing. Best deal I did so far in power tools. It saves my day.

That should not be a problem because this set will handle small, medium and some of the larger bolts. I would think the kit is strong enough to handle it.

This company also makes a "micro line" for teeny tiny screws/bolts, and they work just as well, they sell them on Amazon:Alden 4507P Micro Grabit Broken Bolt Extractor 4 Piece KitThose "bits" are pretty small, so should tackle the "itty bitty" screws and bolts just like it's big brother does with the larger variety........

Supposedly. But it didn't do squat for me in extracting a "One-way" screw which secured a dead-bolt lock. In my instance it was useless.

I replaced one of the given bolts to one I had from another system that has a hole in it for a pad lock. A cable lock around the roll bar through a hole in the jack is always an option as well.

Hey, I have quite a bit of experience with chemical threadlockers, and much less with photography, but if you keep the application clean, only on the threads, and apply the right adhesive, there's no chance of damaging the threads, as long as they are both metal. You need to remember to use a low strength adhesive, to be able to detach the mount later. And with those glues - less is more.

I just used this kit on my Defiant locks. The instructions for disassembly did not apply to my locks at all but I was able to find a youtube video for that part. The pins worked fine. Unlock/lock is smooth.
