Offers unmatched performance under the most severe operating conditions. Virtually unaffected by chemical deterioration, extreme weather, temperature, or aging.
Directions
Surface must be clean, dry, and free of oil, tar, dirt, and dust for best adhesion. Hold can at 45 deg angle and apply a continuous bead of 1/16" to 1/8" to mating surfaces, encircling all bolt holes. For adhesion to both parts, assemble immediately. For one-part adhesion, allow 10-15 minutes for bead to skin. Assemble parts without over-tightening bolts to avoid squeezing out the gasket. Starts to cure immediately. Fully cures in 24 hours and reaches optimum strength in 7 days. For food applications, wash part after sealant is completely cured. Excess cured material can be trimmed with a sharp blade. Avoid undercutting the seal.
