Loctite 5113 thread sealant with PTFE 16 fl oz

Description

Loctite 5113 thread sealant with PTFE is a versatile, non‑curing paste designed for industrial sealing and lubrication of threaded metal pipe joints. With a smooth, off‑white consistency and flow similar to SAE 40 motor oil, this brush‑top paste ensures fast instant sealing to moderate pressures (up to 5,000 psi) and remains effective across a wide temperature range from –65 °F (–51 °C) up to 300 °F (149 °C)

H2: Features

• Solvent‑based paste with dispersed PTFE for enhanced lubricity

• Non‑curing formulation allows easy disassembly

• Instant moderate pressure sealing; full performance in ~24 hours

• Ideal for threaded pipes, fittings, flanges; suitable for water, alkali (10%), ethylene glycol, petroleum, lubricating oil lines

• Temperature range: –65 °F to 300 °F (–51 °C to 149 °C)

• Maximum liquid pressure resistance: 5,000 psi

H3: Technical Specifications

H2: Applications

Loctite 5113 is ideal for sealing threaded connections in plumbing systems, hydraulic setups, oil and glycol lines, chemical piping (alkali up to 10%), water mains and industrial process installations. Particularly suited for metal threads including stainless steel, carbon steel, brass, and some plastics.

H2: Installation Tips

1. Clean all male and female threads thoroughly using Loctite cleaning solvent; allow to dry.

2. Apply a full 360° bead on male threads, avoiding the first thread. Press into threads to fill voids.

3. Allow solvent to flash off for a few minutes before assembling.

4. Hand‑tighten then torque fittings per manufacturer recommendations.

5. Seals instantly to moderate pressure; for full resistance and solvent toughness, allow at least 24 hours cure time.

6. For disassembly: use heat (~250 °C) on large or stuck joints or standard mechanical tools for easy removal
