Permatex®
High Temperature
Thread Sealant
is a medium
strength
anaerobic
sealant with
PTFE for tapered
pipe threads.
This sealing
compound is of a
white, creamy
paste
consistency. The
high lubricating
properties of
this compound
prevents galling
on pipe threads
and fittings. It
will provide
immediate low
pressure sealing
and allow for
the readjustment
of fittings
shortly after
assembly. After
72 hours the
joint is sealed
to pipe burst
pressure. This
product has a
medium solvent
resistance and
will withstand
temperatures to
204°C (400°F).
This product is
not recommended
for use on
plastic piping.

DIRECTIONS
FOR USE
1. For best
performance,
surfaces should
be clean and
free
of grease.
2. Product
should be
applied to the
thread
engagement
area in
sufficient
quantity to fill
all engaged
threads.
3. Use
accepted trade
practices to
assemble and
wrenchtighten
fittings until
proper alignment
is obtained.
4. Very large
thread sizes may
create large
gaps, which will
affect cure
speed and
strength.
5. For
maximum pressure
and solvent
resistance,
allow at
least 24 hours
for the product
to fully cure
before filling
and pressurizing
system.
6. Fittings
assembled with
Permatex® High
Temperature
Thread Sealant
may be
disassembled
with normal hand
tools.
7. For large
pipe diameters
(over 1"), heat
may be required
to disassemble
fittings.
8. Fittings
may be reused by
removing loose
sealant
residue with a
wire brush and
reapplying
sealant.
FOR
CLEANUP
1. Wipe off
any material
outside the
joint with a dry
cloth.
2. Clean
hands with
hand cleaner
or soap and
water.
3. Cured
material must be
removed with
Gasket Remover.
