Acrylic flange sealant
LOCTITE® 5127 is a blue methacrylate ester acrylic paste which improves flange-sealing reliability. After curing between mating metal flanges, it provides a tough, resilient, solvent and temperature resistant seal that flexes with flange movements caused by vibration, pressurization or thermal changes. Typical applications include making gaskets for pumps, housings, axle covers, etc.
