LOCTITE® DRI 516™ is a high viscosity, non-toxic, thixotropic,
preapplied, water-based thread sealant for automatic
dispensing applications. When dried, it becomes a resilient,
tight-clinging, non-curing sealant for tapered or straight
threads. LOCTITE® DRI 516™ provides positive sealing and
resistence to vibrational loosening. The thread-filling ability
and prevailing torque characteristics of this product are
effective for use on sealing applications, particularly where
re-adjustments are required, e.g. rear axle filler plugs, bearing
adjuster nuts, pressure gauges and sensors, brake fittings,
pipe fittings, and compressor pipe plugs. Other devices that
this product is designed for includes; cable connectors, screws
for plastic assemblies, adjustment screws, overhead fire
sprinklers, shower heads, and door closure hardware. This
product is typically used in applications with an operating range
of -54 °C to +150 °C.
