LOCTITE 5188 - 50ml Gasket Maker

Loctite 5188 is a highly flexible anaerobic gasket maker. It is designed for use on rigid metal flange joints, such as those found in gearbox housings or engine crankcases, especially where flanges may be slightly contaminated with oil. It withstands micro-movements on highly stressed flanges. Loctite 5188 cures in the thin gap between metal surfaces in the absence of air and is particularly suitable for use on aluminum surfaces, where it achieves very good adhesion. It also resists low pressure immediately after assembly and flange installation (instant sealing capability). Loctite 5188 can be applied either manually or automatically using suitable dispensing equipment.

Loctite 5188 has been developed to meet the demands of even the most challenging applications due to its higher adhesion and flexibility, even after heating. OEM manufacturers and subcontractors have long benefited from the technical and economic advantages of anaerobic sealing products. Loctite 5188 elevates this technology to a new level.
