Loctite 518 is designed for use on rigid iron, aluminum, and steel flanged mating surfaces. Fills gaps up to 0.25mm and forms a flexible, chemical-resistant seal that will not tear or decay. Typical applications include sealing close fittings on transmissions, motor housings etc.
- Prevents leakage: It fills all gaps between the mating flange parts and cures into a hard thermoset plastic that fills all surface irregularities providing 100% seal
- Adapts to flange surface irregularities and scratches up to 0.25 mm
- Eliminates gasket compression set
- Reduces inventory cost and complexity as one tube can make many different shapes and sizes of gaskets
- Provides instant seal
- Ideal for use on rigid metal parts, e.g. cast iron components and pump housings
- High oil resistance
- Excellent water and glycol resistance
- Flange Material: Metal
- Flange Type: Rigid
