Light strength is "purple", # 222. Medium is blue, # 242, and high-strength
is red, # 271.
There is a "green" strength but I'm not sure where it lise in these three.
You can go look
at http://www.loctite.com/int_henkel/loctite/entry.cfm and enter your country
and go from there.
I know that there's a blue version that I use for very small capscrews in the
medical field,
but I can't remember the number offhand.
But the bottom line is, red will come apart only with heat and a wrench.
There's one particular flavor, # 290, that will "wick" in by capillairy
motion and help holds
things together even if you can't take it apart at all. Needs localized heat to
disassemble.
Well, have fun looking in their catalog.
