Features and Benefits

Low strength gasketing product for machined metal flanges where easy disassembly is vital. For gaps up to 0.125 mm.
LOCTITE® 5203 is a methacrylate-based gasketing product that is ideal where very low strength is of paramount importance (ease of disassembly). Designed for use with machined, rigid metal flanges, the product demonstrates a fixture time of 10 minutes (steel) and 20 minutes (aluminum). It cures anaerobically and is suitable for gaps up to 0.125 mm.
