LOCTITE® SI 5926 is a versatile, one-part, blue silicone paste designed for gasket replacement and dressing applications. Upon exposure to moisture in the air, it cures to form a durable, flexible silicone rubber gasket. This product is engineered to resist aging, weathering, and thermal cycling without hardening, shrinking, or cracking, making it ideal for automotive and industrial applications.
- Multi-Purpose Application: Suitable for use on metal, plastic, and painted parts.
- Enhanced Load-Bearing: Improves load-bearing and shock-absorbing characteristics of the bond area.
- Vibration Resistance: Resists vibration, thermal expansion, and contraction.
- Non-Permanent Bond: Provides a very low strength bond for ease of disassembly.
- Tack-Free Time: Achieves a non-tacky surface within 60 minutes at 25°C.
