## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi,this is usa version or chinese?**
A: Neither it is the INDIA version and it does not dry

**Q: Can this be use in camera lens screws, which are mostly plastic housings and metal screws? I am trying to repair my camera lens**
A: I use it for very teeny screws 0-90, etc in metal to metal configurations and I find it gets harder than I like sometimes even though I'm careful to wipe them almost dry.  Answer:  I would not use on anything plastic especially small threads.

**Q: Can this be used for Jewelry screws for like charm bracelets?**
A: LOCTITE 222 is a low-strength threadlocker that is commonly used to secure small screws, bolts, and nuts in various applications. While it is possible to use LOCTITE 222 for jewelry screws like those found on charm bracelets, it is important to note that this threadlocker is not designed specifically for jewelry or cosmetic purposes.

If you decide to use LOCTITE 222 on your charm bracelet screws, it is important to apply it sparingly and only to the threads of the screw, being careful not to let it come into contact with the visible parts of the jewelry. After applying the threadlocker, allow it to dry completely before wearing the bracelet.

Alternatively, you may want to consider using a jewelry-specific adhesive or threadlocker, which are formulated to be safe for use on jewelry and are less likely to damage the finish or appearance of your charm bracelet. You can find these products at most jewelry supply stores or online retailers.
