Loctite DRI 5061 Driseal Thread Sealant aqua-based 4kg can

LOCTITE DRI 5061 is a pre-applied, non-curing, non-toxic, aqueous-based thread sealant with high temperature and solvent resistance. The coating is dry-to-the-touch and ready for immediate use. 

• Pack size: 4 kg bucket (Loctite no. 88337)

Application

• Typical applications are sealing threaded components like pipe couplings and fittings, with either parallel or tapered threads, against gases, aqueous and non-aqueous fluids up to a temperature of +150°C.
• Particularly suitable in situations where threaded assemblies are required to be ready for immediate use in a high volume production environment where it may not be convenient to use a liquid sealant.
• LOCTITE 5061 can be used to seal effectively on a wide variety of substrates including metals and plastics.
• The sealing of flat faces can also be achieved with this product.

Characteristics 

• May be used in hot and cold water pipe couplings and fittings
• Can be used to seal effectively on a wide variety of substrates including metals and plastics
• The sealing of flat faces can also be achieved with this product

Technical specifications

Product description

The product is a one component system consisting of an aqueous based liquid binder applied to fitting/ fasteners and dried at an intermediate convertor company. This can take place at an intermediate convertor company or be done by the end user. Guidelines on recommended mixing and drying conditions are available to convertor companies through the local Technical Service Centre. The dry coated fitting/ fastener is ready for immediate use and can be assembled to its mating threaded component at any time within its on-part shelf life period. For best performance the mating surface should be clean and free of grease. Product is normally pre-applied to the threaded component in sufficient quantity to fill all engaged threads by agreement between the converter and the end user. This product performs best in thin bond gaps, (0.05 mm). Very large thread sizes may create large gaps which will affect sealing performance and function should be verified.

Storage

Coated fasteners shall be ideally stored in a cool, dry location at a temperature between 8 to 21°C (46 to 70°F). The onpart shelf-life period of a coated component is 4 years based upon date of application of coating.
