LOCTITE silicone joint filler black SI 5980 - tube - 100ml

LOCTITE silicone joint compound black SI 5980 is a highly resistant, flexible, single-component siliconesealant. What makes it special? It offers immediate resistance to low-pressure sealing tests, after application as the product begins to polymerize. It also has excellent resistance to automotive engine oils. This makes it the ideal product for sealing pressed sheet metal housings ( timing gear covers , differential covers, transmission housings, oil pans, etc.) where good resistance to oils is required, as well as the ability to withstand very high gasket movement. Its thixotropic nature prevents it from dripping or migrating after application. It can be used over a temperature range from -55°C to 200°C.
Compatible with metal or plastic surfaces.

Advantages :
- Easy to use.
- Excellent resistance to oils.
- Good glycol resistance.
- Immediate-strength sealant for flexible joint surfaces.
- Particularly suitable for metals and plastics.
- Can be used over a wide temperature range (-55°C to 200°C).

Recommendations for use:
- For best performance, surfaces must be clean and grease-free.
- Polymerization begins as soon as the product comes into contact with ambient humidity, so it is advisable to assemble parts within minutes of application.
- Before applying the product under heavy loads, allow sufficient curing time (7 days minimum) to obtain the best performance.
- Excess product can be easily wiped off with a suitable solvent.

Please observe all safety precautions.
