Below is a cross section of available Loctite products. There are many more than this. In general the purple compounds are at the low end of the strength range going up through blue, red, and green at the top. However this is not a hard and fast rule. Note the 220 blue low strength and the 290 green medium strength. For that reason please be careful what you select for your own use or recommend to others. Specificity is important in many areas and, IMO, guns are one of them. I've been guilty of this and am trying mightily to avoid it in the future.
