These sealants have high locking strength, so they work in demanding applications, such as securing mounting studs in motor housings. They also withstand applications with large temperature swings.
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.
