LOCTITE® SI 5900 is a low strength, moisture-cured, thixotropic silicone-based paste. Typical applications include stamped sheet metal covers (timing covers and oil sumps). It exhibits a rapid skin-over time of 15 min and is suitable for gaps up to 1 mm. As a single component it requires no mixing.
- Good oil resistance
- Withstands joint movement
- Reduces migration of liquid after application
- Adheres to metal, plastic, glass and ceramic materials
