Gasketing Product – excellent oil resistance. Ideal for use on rigid iron, steel and aluminium flanges.
LOCTITE 518 is a medium-strength sealant which cures when confined in the absence of air between close-fitting metal surfaces. Typical applications include sealing close-fitting joints between rigid metal faces and flanges. Provides resistance to low pressures immediately after assembly of flanges. Typically used as a form-in-place gasket on rigid flanged connections, e.g. transmissions and engine casings.
