Reliable sealing for rigid metal flanges

Practical benefits

Instant low pressure seal: You assemble rigid joints faster because the sealant resists low pressures immediately after fitting.
Semi-flexible gap filling performance: You bridge gaps up to 0.25 mm with a formulation that accommodates minor component movements.
Easy disassembly during maintenance: Thanks to medium strength curing, you cleanly disassemble parts later using standard hand tools.

In a nutshell

The right choise for

With Loctite 518 flange sealant, you create a reliable and leak-free joint between rigid metal flanges on engine and gearbox housings. This semi-flexible anaerobic formula easily fills gaps and surface imperfections up to 0.25 mm, providing instant resistance to low pressures immediately after assembly. It adheres effectively to both active metals like steel and passive materials such as aluminium, withstanding operating temperatures from -55 °C to +150 °C. By eliminating the need for pre-cut gaskets, it ensures a dependable seal for all mechanical assemblies. Thanks to its medium strength curing, parts can be disassembled cleanly during future maintenance using standard hand tools. The 300 ml cartridge is ideal for workshop use.

Product description:

Medium-strength, general purpose gasketing product - excellent contamination tolerance.
Ideal for use on casted iron, steel and aluminum flanges.
LOCTITE 518 cures when confined in the absence of air between close-fitting metal surfaces.
It is an anaerobic gasketing material designed for use on rigid iron, aluminum, and steel flanged mating surfaces.
Fills gaps up to 0.25mm and forms a flexible, chemical-resistant seal that will not tear or decay.
Parts disassemble easily, even after extended service.
Typical applications include sealing close-fitting joints between rigid metal faces and flanges.
It is also used as a formed-in-place gasket on rigid flanged connections, e.g. transmissions and engine housings.
NEW: Henkel has recently improved the product formulation of LOCTITE 518 providing: Higher strength on contaminated surfaces Better flexibility and improved adhesion Enhanced sealing capability Improved gap cure High performance on passive metals without an activator
