LOCTITE® 30516 Aviation Gasket Sealant is a dark reddish brown, viscous liquid with a characteristic alcoholic odor. It is a slow drying liquid that changes to a pliable, tacky film through solvent evaporation. It seals close fitting parts, machined surfaces and threaded connections in industrial, aircraft, and marine applications.

Loctite Aviation Gasket Sealant once applied, develops a hard, semi-flexible sealant by solvent evaporation. Dry times will vary with temperature, humidity and gap.

    Typical Curing Performance
    Loctite Aviation Gasket Sealant once applied, develops a hard, semi-flexible sealant by solvent evaporation. Dry times will vary with temperature, humidity and gap.

    Chemical / Solvent Resistance
    The product retains effective properties in contact with water, ethylene glycol, gasoline, motor oil, transmission fluid and sea water.

    1. Remove all previous material from mating surfaces.
    2. For best results, clean and dry all surfaces with a residue-free solvent.
    3. Remove cap. Coat with brush-top applicator.
    4. When used as a gasket dressing, spread product with a spatula to a uniform film on one side of gasket and then position it on the assembly. Coat the second side of gasket and re-assemble. Slower drying formula increases work time.
    5. Assembly is operational after 4 hours, full cure is effective after 24 hours.

    For Cleanup

    1. The product can be removed from metal surfaces with isopropyl alcohol. If the sealant has been dried for a long time or at high temperatures, cover the sealant with alcohol and allow to soften overnight.
    2. Clean hands with hand cleaners.
