Review: Bonne état - Livraison rapide et en bonne condition
Review: stopped the leak - After doing quite a lot of research I decided to give this a try. I have an old Speedaire air compressor that had a leak from the valve plate gasket for which a replacement is no longer available. The gasket is subject to high compression and excessive heat. After attempting to make a replacement from gasket material (which nearly worked but still leaked minutely) I assembled the compressor using this product and it has performed flawlessly: no leaks. It is critical that the mating surfaces are extremely clean before applying. It does set up to a thick gel consistency but it does not harden which many other products do. A bit more costly than many other sealants but worth it.

## Features

- Cure Type: Anaerobic | Cure Time: 24 Hours

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it work on plastic engine parts? The cylinder on my chainsaw mounts to plastic.**
A: It does not work on plastic. The product is activated by metal ions, so it fully  cures only in presence of metal.

**Q: will this work for diesel exhaust manifold block off plate with high temps?**
A: This product can only resist up to 300-350 degrees F, not recommended for exhaust manifolds. The metallic gasket is the only thing that will create a proper seal for those temps of a diesel engine.

**Q: Can I use 515 to seal around the leak for automatic transmission fluid around the dipstick tube as it connects to the chevy automatic transmission?**
A: 515 is primarily an anaerobic, used to prevent air leakage between torqued surfaces. I have used it on gear cases and power equipment transmissions with success.  It may work on your dipstick, if you can secure it so it doesn't move around. Of all things JB weld may be a better repair.

**Q: What is the shelf life**
A: There is no shelf listed on tube I have used it well past  year on Engines case halves
