description
- Loctite® NS 5550 is a thermal reactive fibrous paste sealing compound that is used in high temperature and high pressure applications. In the presence of heat, Loctite® NS 5550 will form a "mechanical type" seal. Loctite® NS 5550 will not cement the flanges together, thus, it will not interfere with future repairs of metal-to-metal joints. Loctite® NS 5550 is unaffected by thermal cycling. This product has been successfully used to seal flanges up to 5,000 psi.
