Gaskets are used to prevent leakage of fluids or gases by forming impervious barriers. For successful gasketing, it is necessary that the seal must remain intact and leak-free over a long period of time. The gasket must be resistant to fluids and/or gases, and withstand the operating temperatures and pressures to which it is subjected. LOCTITE^® gasketing products are self-forming gaskets that provide a perfect seal between components, with maximum face-to-face contact, eliminating flange face corrosion. A low-pressure seal is formed immediately on assembly. At full cure it provides a seal that won’t shrink, crack or relax.

The market demands are ever evolving, and so is the manufacturing landscape. Increasing bond strength while achieving light-weighting goals, fewer process steps, and, better aesthetics have become a priority. LOCTITE^® Structural bonders and sealants have been helping manufacturers get long-lasting bonding and sealing while increasing productivity and reducing cost.

Threadlockers lock and seal your threaded assemblies, protecting against vibration, corrosion, and galling. But depending on your need, you have to choose the right threadlocker and consider strength, form, and removability. Which one will you need? LOCTITE^® makes your choice easy.
