PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Permatex Ultra Black Gasket Maker is a single component, room temperature, vulcanizing, gasketing compound desi gned to provide reliable "formed-in-place" gaskets for me chanical assemblies. This material cures on exposure to mo isture in the air to form a tough, flexible, silicone rubber gasket. The product resists aging, weathering and thermal cycling without hardning, shrinking or cracking. Designed to provide increased oil resistance and complies with ex tended warranty requirements.
PRODUCT BENEFITS ● Improved oil resistance ● Sensor safe, non-corrosive ● Good adhesion and flexibility ● Replaces most cut gaskets ● Can be used as a gasket maker or dressing ● Non-flammable, Non-toxic ● Low odor
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS ● Pump housings ● Machine tools ● Compressors ● Gearboxes ● Valve covers ● Oil pans ● Transmission pans
DIRECTIONS FOR USE For assembly as a form-in-place gasket 1.Remove all previous material from mating surfaces Permatex Gasket Remover is recommended for most
materials, not for plastics or painted surfaces. 2.For best results, clean and dry all surfaces with a residue -free solvent, such as Permatex Brake and Parts Cleaner. 3.Cut nozzle to desired bead size, 1/16 to 1/4 in diameter. An 1/8 bead is usually sufficient for most applications. 4.Remove cap, puncture tube or cartridge seal and attach extension nozzle. 5.Apply a continuous and even bead of silicone to one sur face, first tracing the internal areas of the gasket configu ration, then all surrounding bolt holes. 6.Assemble parts immediately while silicone is still wet. 7.Finger tighten flange only until material begins to seep out the sides of the flange. 8.Allow to set for at least two hours and re -torque at least one quarter to one half turn. 9.For best results, allow to cure overnight.
For assembly as a gasket dressing 1.Repeat steps 1 through 4 as in previous section. 2.Apply a thin film of silicone to one surface to be sealed. 3.Place the pre-cut gasket onto silicon film. 4.Apply a second thin film to pre-cut gasket surface. 5.Remove any excess and assemble parts immediately. Note:Product is not recommended for use as a cylinder head gasket or head gasket sealant.
Instructions for PowerBead 1.Clean and dry all flange surfaces to be sealed. 2.Remove black cap from top of extension nozzle.
3.Turn nozzle extension one complete turn (360) counterc lockwise. 4.Depress finger trigger and apply a continuous 1/16 inch to 1/8 inch PowerBead to one surface. 5.Assemble parts immediately while silicone is still wet. 6.Finger tighten flange only until material begins to seep out the sides of the flange. 7.Allow to set for at least two hours and re-torque at least one quarter to one half turn. 8.For best results, allow to cure overnight. 9.To close, turn extension nozzle clockwise until tight(about one full turn). Wipe off excess material from nozzle and replace black cap. | Storage of Unused Product 1.Create a "Silicone Plug" by allowing excess material to extend beyond the extension nozzle or aerosol tip to
cure, sealing and protecting the remaining product from moisture, For reuse, simply remove the cured product from the tip. 2.For PowerBead dispensers, you may store remaining pro duct using either the above "silicone plug" method or using the included plastic cap.
For Cleanup 1.Remove uncured product from parts and hand-tools with Permatex Envirosafe ODC Free Cleaner/Degreaser. If skin
ned over, break film with a dry cloth to remove as much as possible. Remove the remaining material with Permatex Gasket Remover. 2.Clean hands with a dry cloth or Permatex Fast Orange Hand Cleaner.
