Loctite® Gasketing Products vs. conventional gaskets.
 |
The Enemy: Cut or molded gaskets. They wear out, shred and lose their elastic properties. Under operating conditions, conventional gaskets suffer constant pressure and impact. They are pounded thinner and extrude, opening leak paths and causing leaks.
The Problem: Equipment breakdown, warranty costs, clean-up and disposal costs, downtime and repair costs.
|
|
The Enemy: Gasket inventory. Your company has to stock a huge number of pre-cut gaskets in different shapes and sizes. They need gaskets for all kinds of equipment, both old and new. Stored gaskets grow brittle with age and damage easily during transport.
The Problem: Unnecessary inventory costs.

The Solution: Loctite® Gasketing Products. They flow to cover the entire flange surface, including surface irregularities, on any size or shape of flange. Then they cure to a solid thermoset plastic, with no voids or gaps. They resist damage from solvents and other chemicals.

Loctite® Gasketing Product Benefits:
- Zero gas or fluid leaks.
- No need to keep readjusting the tension on the flange bolts to compensate for cut-gasket deficiencies.
- Dramatic ability to cut inventory and save your company time and money.
