Unlike tapes and pastes, Henkel’s Loctite® thread sealants ensure complete contact between threads for a 100% seal. Formulated to secure plastic and metal pipes and fittings, Loctite® sealants seal instantly for low pressure testing, and will not creep, shrink, shred, or block systems, including filters. When fully cured, a Loctite sealant seals to the burst strength of most piping systems. Should disassembly be necessary for repairs, the process can be achieved easily with basic hand tools.

As with Henkel’s threadlocking line, the company offers a patented, semi-solid stick formula for thread sealing. QuickStix® 561 Pipe Sealant won’t spill or leak, making it ideal for overhead applications, or for carrying in a toolbox.
