It is highly effective at sealing pitted or roughly machined surfaces, particularly those in contact with water and anti-freeze. The compound is resistant to a wide range of fluids, including water (salt water and steam), anti-freeze, and synthetic oils. It is based on new synthetic polymer technology, forms an instant seal, and has a heat-activated curing system. It also exhibits excellent resistance to automotive fluids and inhibits galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals. This product is methylene chloride free and comes in a 40ml tube.
This guide is for users of Hylomar Hylotyte Red 100, a synthetic jointing compound designed for sealing and protecting surfaces. It's ideal for those needing a reliable sealant resistant to various fluids, offering excellent gap-filling properties. Keep in mind that while it's versatile, it's best suited for applications where resistance to water, anti-freeze, and oils is critical.
