Producte acabatview

The Loctite 5188 Gasket Sealant is an anaerobic flange sealant designed for rigid iron, aluminum, and steel flanged mating surfaces. It cures when confined in the absence of air between close-fitting metal surfaces. This product provides a flexible, solvent-resistant seal that will not tear or degrade. It is ideal for sealing close-fitting joints between rigid metal faces and flanges.

Setup and Surface Preparation

  1. Superfícies netes: Ensure all mating surfaces are clean, dry, and free from oil, grease, and old gasket material. Use a suitable solvent cleaner if necessary.
  2. Roughen Surfaces (Optional): For best adhesion, lightly abrade smooth surfaces with an abrasive pad or fine sandpaper, then clean again.
  3. Comprova l'ajust: Verify that the parts to be sealed fit closely together. This product is designed for close-fitting metal surfaces.

Instruccions d'ús (aplicació)

  1. Dispensar producte: Apply a continuous bead of Loctite 5188 to one of the flange faces. Ensure complete coverage around all bolt holes and mating surfaces.
  2. Muntar peces: Assemble the components immediately after application. Light clamping is recommended to ensure intimate metal-to-metal contact.
