LOCTITE 518 is a single component, medium strength, anaerobic sealant. It is designed for use on casted iron, aluminum, and steel flanged mating surfaces. LOCTITE 518 creates a flexible, chemical-resistant seal. It will not pull apart or decay over time. This product is typically used to seal joints between rigid metal faces and flanges. It is also effective as a formed-in-place gasket on rigid flanged connections, such as transmissions and engine casings.LOCTITE 518 cures in the absence of air between close-fitting metal surfaces. It performs best on gaps up to 0.25 mm. Viscosity of the product decreases under stress. This property reduces the migration of liquid product after application.
Medium strength
Suitable for active and passive substrates
Tolerates minor surface contamination from oils
Thixotropic to reduce adhesive migration
Instant low pressure resistance
High pressure resistance when fully cured
NSF P1 Reg. No. 123758
How to use Loctite 518:
For best results, clean all surfaces with a LOCTITE solvent. Allow it to dry.
Apply LOCTITE 518 manually as a continuous bead, a rolled film or by screen printing to one surface of the flanges. For gaps greater than 0.125mm, a rolled film should be applied to both surfaces.
Low pressures may be used when testing to confirm a complete seal. Perform test immediately after assembly and before curing.
Flanges should be tightened as soon as possible after assembly to avoid shimming.
For maximum strength, allow the product to cure for 24 hours, minimum.
Storage
Store LOCTITE 518 in the unopened container in a dry location. Optimal Storage: 8° C to 21° C. Storage below 8° C or greater than 28° C can adversely affect product properties.
