About Sealant Flexibility

About Structural Adhesives

PTFE provides a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding. These sealants are anaerobic, so they don’t begin to harden until coated surfaces are threaded together, blocking exposure to air.

Sealants with low locking strength prevent threads from loosening due to vibration and can be adjusted without tools.

Sealants with medium locking strength prevent threads from loosening due to vibration and shock. They require a hand tool to unthread.

To adhere to safety standards for drinking water systems, use sealants that meet NSF/ANSI 61.

Drip-Free Thread Sealants with PTFE

Apply this thread sealant stick without a mess. It contains PTFE, which provides a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding. Since the sealant is anaerobic, it doesn’t begin to harden until coated surfaces are threaded together, blocking exposure to air. It has low locking strength, so it prevents threads from loosening due to vibration and can be adjusted without tools. It meets NSF/ANSI 61 for use with drinking water.

Non-Hardening Thread Sealants with PTFE

PTFE provides a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding. These sealants never fully harden, remaining pliable enough to self-heal and stop leaks before they start, so they’re often used in high-vibration applications that could cause standard thread sealants to fail. Since they have low locking strength, these sealants can be adjusted without tools.

To adhere to safety standards for drinking water systems, use sealants that meet NSF/ANSI 61.

VOC (volatile organic compounds) regulations restrict sales of sealants that cannot be sold to the listed jurisdictions/areas.

Reusable Non-Hardening Thread Sealants for Coarse Threads

Much thicker than sealants for fine threads, these sealants bridge the gaps between coarse threads. Threads coated with these sealants can be installed multiple times without recoating. They have low locking strength, so they prevent threads from loosening due to vibration and can be adjusted without tools. They meet NSF/ANSI 61 for use with drinking water.

Thread Sealants for Hydraulic and Compressed Air Systems

Formulated for high lubricity, these sealants allow easy assembly of finely threaded hydraulic and compressed air system components. They're also free of fillers that could contaminate system media. These sealants are anaerobic, so they don’t begin to harden until coated surfaces are threaded together, blocking exposure to air. VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations restrict sales to the listed jurisdictions/areas.

Sealants with medium locking strength prevent threads from loosening due to vibration and shock. They require a hand tool to unthread.

Sealants with high locking strength work in demanding applications, such as securing mounting studs in motor housings. They require both heat and a hand tool to unthread.

High-Temperature Thread Sealants

These sealants have high locking strength, so they work in demanding applications, such as securing mounting studs in motor housings.

Heat cure sealant requires heat of at least 212° F to harden. Above 300° F, the sealant hardens in about 15 minutes. For temperatures below 300° F, it may take up to 4 hours to harden. It requires both heat and a hand tool to unthread.

Room-temperature cure sealants must be mixed with water for use; they harden as the water evaporates. Mix about five parts powdered-sealant to one part water to form a thick consistency similar to peanut butter. Hardening can be accelerated with heat; do not heat to above 200° F. They require a hand tool to unthread.

1000° F max. temp. sealants expand as they harden.

1500° F max. temp. sealants are for use on cement-lined pipe joints prior to welding. The heat from the welding torch helps them begin to harden.

Sealants that cannot be sold to the listed regions are restricted due to VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations.

Thread Sealants for Oxygen Systems

Completely free of oil and chemically inert, these sealants are safe to use with wet and dry oxygen systems. They contain PTFE, which provides a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding. These sealants are non-hardening, remaining pliable enough to self-heal and stop leaks before they start, so they’re often used in high-vibration applications that could cause standard thread sealants to fail. Since they have low locking strength, these sealants can be adjusted without tools.

The sealant in a tube is a good alternative to thread sealant tape—like tape, it forms PTFE strings between tightened threads, but excess material liquefies, so it won’t clog system components downstream.

Thread Sealants for Refrigeration Systems

For use in refrigeration systems and applications exposed to strong chemicals, these sealants have excellent solvent resistance. They’re anaerobic, so they don’t begin to harden until coated surfaces are threaded together, blocking exposure to air. Sealants have medium locking strength, which prevents threads from loosening due to vibration and shock. They require a hand tool to unthread.
