Product Details
Sensor-Safe High-Temp RTV Silicone Gasket Maker by Permatex®, 3 oz. Tube. This first generation gasket maker is specially formulated for engines equipped with oxygen sensors. It maintains performance in a continuous temperature environment of 600°F and is resistant to shop fluids. Typical applications include oil and transmission pans, valve covers, intake manifolds, timing covers, water pumps, and thermostat housings.
Changing engine designs require new, advanced gasketing standards. Engine sensors and new component materials such as aluminum, bi-metal alloys, and high-tech plastics have created the need for superior RTV silicone gasket makers. Permatex gasket makers offer considerable performance advantages, even in modern complex vehicles. These non-flammable, non-toxic products feature excellent fluid resistance, sensor-safe and high-temp properties, and are designed to resist aging, weathering, and thermal cycling without hardening, shrinking, or cracking.
The Sensor-Safe High-Temp RTV Silicone Gasket Maker by Permatexis a single component gasketing compound developed to provide reliable “formed-in-place” gaskets for mechanical < a href="/engine-assemblies.html">assembliesa. RTV (Room Temperature Vulcanizing) Silicone is a flexible material that cures at standard room temperatures on exposure to moisture in the air to form a tough gasket. It is engineered to deliver maximum performance in a continuous temperature environment of 600°F.
