Description
SGS F50R High-Heat RTV Silicone Gasket Maker (50gm – Red)
Replace failing traditional paper, cork, and rubber gaskets with the superior durability of the SGS F50R High-Heat RTV Silicone. A crucial maintenance tool in the Afrogulf automotive and engineering catalog, this Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV) silicone is engineered to perform reliably under extreme thermal stress. It is the go-to liquid gasket maker for professional mechanics, plant engineers, and automotive enthusiasts who need a permanent, leak-proof seal in high-temperature engine and machinery environments.
The standout feature of the F50R formulation is its exceptional heat resistance. It is capable of withstanding continuous exposure to extreme temperatures (frequently reaching up to 300°C / 572°F) without losing its elasticity or structural integrity. Packaged in a compact, easy-to-use 50-gram squeeze tube, it allows for highly precise, gun-free application in tight, congested engine bays. Once fully cured, the tough red silicone rubber remains highly flexible, forming an impenetrable barrier against engine oil, antifreeze, and severe mechanical vibration.
Key Features & Specifications:
-
Extreme Heat Resistance: Specifically formulated to maintain its sealing properties and physical integrity under intense, high-temperature thermal cycling.
-
Form-in-Place Gasket Maker: Easily replaces or reinforces traditional pre-cut paper, cork, and rubber gaskets to deliver a custom, blowout-proof seal.
-
Convenient 50gm Tube: The compact squeeze tube allows for precise, one-handed application without needing a bulky caulking gun.
-
Automotive Fluid Resistant: Creates a tough chemical barrier that stands up perfectly to hot motor oil, coolant, and transmission fluids.
-
Vibration & Shock Proof: Cures to a permanently flexible rubber that absorbs severe engine vibrations and metal expansion without breaking the watertight seal.
Applications: Highly recommended for sealing automotive valve covers, oil pans, water pumps, thermostat housings, exhaust manifolds, and industrial heating oven enclosures.
