     This Amendment No. 9 (this "Amendment") amends and
supplements the Schedule 13D filed on June 3, 1985, as previously
amended (the "Schedule 13D"), of Henkel Corporation, with respect
to the Common Stock, $.01 par value ("Common Stock"), of Loctite
Corporation ("Loctite" or the "Company").  All capitalized terms
used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined herein have the
meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.  

     HCI expended an aggregate of approximately $7,266,000 in
connection with its acquisitions, during the past 60 days, of
158,200 shares of Common Stock.  The sources of such funds were
working capital of HCI, as well as loans from Henkel Corporation
from its own working capital.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

     (a) - (b)  At the date hereof, HCI beneficially owns
11,183,724 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately
31.6% of the 35,377,935 shares of Common Stock outstanding on
April 30, 1995, as reported in Loctite's Form 10-Q for the
quarterly period ended March 31, 1995.  Subject to the
limitations of the Agreement and the Rights Agreement, HCI has
sole power to vote and to dispose of the shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by it.

     Subject to the limitations of the Agreement and the Rights
Agreement, HCI has a right of first refusal with respect to
shares of Common Stock representing approximately 10% of the
outstanding Common Stock.  Henkel disclaims beneficial ownership
with respect to all shares of Common Stock subject to the right
of first refusal.

     (c)  Certain information with respect to each transaction in
the Common Stock during the past 60 days is set forth in Exhibit
13 hereto.  Except as set forth herein, no transactions in shares
of Common Stock were effected during the past 60 days by HCI, or,
to the best of its knowledge, by Henkel KGaA, Henkel of America,
Inc., Henkel Corporation or any of the other persons listed on
Schedules I and II hereto.

Item 7.  Material to be filed as Exhibits.

     Exhibit 13.    Purchases of Common Stock during 60 day
period through July 28, 1995.


                            Signature

belief, I certify that the information set forth in this
statement is true, complete and correct.
