Conventional pipe sealing products prove ineffective for hydraulic, gas and water systems. Vibration and shock loads are part of the problem. So is corrosion and contamination.
Application of Lavametal F Pipe Sealants for threaded assemblies. Leaking pipes are a nuisance. They can also be potentially dangerous. Yet, conventional tapes and dopes, which are messy to apply, remain too soft or get so hard that they crack. Either way, they let liquids and gases seep through and can cause contamination.Lavametal F Sealants are anaerobic, which means that they seal with metal contact (such as two threaded parts) in the absence of air-and they stay sealed until you want to undo the assembly. The seal is protection against corrosion within the joint and the loosening of parts due to vibrations and shock loads. But, even with such a highly effective seal, the joint can still be undone with normal tools.
