Permatex

Permatex products have a long history with many well-known OEM and MRO products such as: Threadlockers, Gel Twist™, Retaining Compounds, the Right Stuff®, Anti-Seize, Form-A-Gasket®, Fast Orange® and Zip Grip® to name a few. 

Permatex® Anti-Seize Compounds and Lubricants work to protect mated metal parts against in-service rusting, corrosion, friction, and galling and lubricate a wide array of machinery moving parts and components. Made to serve the demanding needs of even the most severe industrial environments. Anti-Seize reduces wrench torque and eases assembly and disassembly of threaded, slip-fit, and press-fit connections. Depend on Permatex ® Anti-Seizes to reduce friction and wear. Available in a variety of temperature ranges. 


Retaining Compounds are designed to bond non-threaded, cylindrical, metal assemblies by filling the voids between close-fitting metal parts. Retaining Compounds harden to create a solid, one-piece assembly. Retaining Compounds can be used to lock keyways, secure splines, augment press fits, and strengthen interference fits. Use them to prevent wear on new components, or restore the fit to worn or out-of-tolerance parts. Retaining Compounds seal joints against leakage and prevent fretting and corrosion. Formulated in a variety of viscosities, strength characteristics, gap-filling abilities, and temperature ranges, Permatex ® Retaining Compounds can solve even the most difficult retaining applications. 


Thread Sealants seal and secure metal pipes and fittings by filling the space between threaded metal parts. Thread Sealants prevent leakage caused by vibration loosening, tape shredding, solvent evaporation, damaged threads, and temperature cycling. Designed for low and high-pressure applications, Thread Sealants seal instantly for on-line low pressure testing. When fully cured, they seal to the burst strength of most piping systems. The high lubricating properties of Permatex ® Thread Sealants ease assembly and prevent galling of the threads. For system repairs, parts may be disassembled with basic hand tools.
