LOCTITE 518 cures when confined in the absence of air between close-fitting metal surfaces. It is an anaerobic gasketing material designed for use on rigid iron, aluminum, and steel flanged mating surfaces. Fills gaps up to 0.25mm and forms a flexible, chemical-resistant seal that will not tear or decay. Parts disassemble easily, even after extended service. Typical applications include sealing close-fitting joints between rigid metal faces and flanges. It is also used as a formed-in-place gasket on rigid flanged connections, e.g. transmissions and engine housings. NEW: Henkel has recently improved the product formulation of LOCTITE 518 providing:

Higher strength on contaminated surfaces
Better flexibility and improved adhesion
Enhanced sealing capability
Improved gap cure
High performance on passive metals without an activator
