PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Permatex Anaerobic Flange Sealant is a single component,

medium strength ,thixotropic, anaerobic sealant that cures

rapidly. The product cures when confined in the absence of

air between close fitting metal flanges. It provides a tough,

resiliant, solvent and temperature resistant seal that flexes

with flange movement caused by vibration ,pressurization

or thermal changes.

PRODUCT BENEFITS

● Seals all surface imperfections

● Seals most common automotive fluids

● No cracking or shrinking during cure

● Eliminates costly retorquing operations

● Single component system

● Non-corrosive to metal parts

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

Used as a form-in-place gasket for pumps, thermostasts,

compressors, transmission housings, and axle covers.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

1.Surfaces to be sealed should be free of grease, oil and

   dirt. Use Permatex Brake and Parts Cleaner to remove

   oil. Use Permatex Gasket Remover to remove old gask

   ets.

2.Apply manually to one side of flange, making sure a co

   ntinuous bead is applied.

3.Assemble parts.

4.Torque to normal specifications.

5.Parts may be returned to service in one hour.

For Cleanup

1.Wipe off excess material with a clean cloth.

2.Clean hands with Permatex Fast Orange hand cleaner

   or soap and water.

For Disassembly

1.For smaller assembled parts, heat part to 400℉ to 450℉

2.Use cautious, light prying or tapping motion to loosen the

   parts. Repeat heating/prying sequence as needed.

3.For larger assembled parts use prying/cleaving tools in

   combination with a light hammer and cautiously tap and

   pry the sides of the part to break the gasketed surfaces

   loose.

4.Once parts are disassembled, allow all surfaces to cool

   to room temperature.

5.Use Permatex Gasket Remover to remove dried anaerobic

    material.

TYPICAL CURING PERFORMANCE

Cure Speed vs.Substrate

The rate of cure will depend on the substrate used.The graph

below shows the shear strength developed with time on grit

blasted steel lap shears compared to different materials and

tested according to ASTM D 1002

Cure Speed VS.Activator

Where cure speed is unacceptably long,or large gaps are

present, applying activator to the surface will improve cure

speed. The graph below shows the shear strength developed

with time using Surface Prep Activator on grit blasted steel

lap shears and tested according to ASTM D1002
