LOCTITE® SI 5900™
LOCTITE® SI 5900™ is a highly effective adhesive sealant designed for use in industrial and professional applications. This versatile product provides exceptional sealing performance, preventing the leakage of fluids, such as oils, coolants, transmission fluids, and hydraulic fluids, commonly caused by vibration and thermal expansion. Its fast-curing formula forms a flexible seal that withstands high temperatures and resists chemicals in demanding environments.
LOCTITE® SI 5900™ is a high-performance gasket sealer specifically designed to provide reliable sealing and bonding for a wide range of automotive and industrial applications. With its flexible nature, LOCTITE® SI 5900™ can accommodate thermal expansion and vibrations between mating surfaces, commonly experienced in demanding environments. This flexibility ensures a secure and enduring seal, even under dynamic conditions. It also provides excellent sealing capabilities, resisting damage and leaks from fluids, gases, moisture, and other harmful contaminants. Its fast curing time at room temperature allows it to form a resilient, rubber-like elastomer within a short period, reducing assembly time and increasing productivity. In applications where superior heat resistance is required, LOCTITE® SI 5900™ can withstand temperatures ranging from -75°F to 450°F (-60°C to 232°C).
