DESCRIPTION
• All purpose, high performance pipe joint and gasket sealing compound
for use on metals including Aluminum, Black Iron, Brass, Copper,
Stainless Steel, Galvanized Steel and on Plastics including PVC and
CPVC. Block sets up quickly and dries to form a very tough, yet flexible
seal which will not harden, crack, crumble or shrink. Provides leak-proof
resistance to high pressure, temperature, expansion, contraction and
extreme vibration. Joints can be disassembled easily, without damage to
pipe or equipment. Block can be removed from skin or clothing, tools or
equipment with isopropyl alcohol.
• Ideal for sealing jobs in plumbing, heating, piping, air conditioning,
refrigeration, automotive and innumerable industrial applications. Block
is applied easily with the natural bristle brush even at temperatures
as low as +20°F and performs over a temperature range of -90
°
F to
+450
°
F. It provides leak proof hydraulic resistance to 12,000 psi and
withstands gas pressure to 2,600 psi. Block contains no lead.
