Loxeal 55-03 Thread Sealant 50ml

Loxeal 55-03 is a blue, medium-strength anaerobic sealant specifically designed for locking and sealing threaded fasteners that may need future removal. Suitable for use on lightly oiled surfaces, it stands up to heat, vibration, water, oils, gases, hydrocarbons, and many chemicals, offering reliable performance even under harsh conditions.

The product retains its sealing ability up to +200°C (withstand short periods at +250°C) and meets key international standards for gas and potable water: EN 751-1 (DVGW & GAZ DE FRANCE), WRAS, and UBA (German Environment Agency).

Performance & Application

Loxeal 55-03 sets to medium strength, allowing future disassembly with tools. Handling strength is reached in 1–3 hours; full cure in 24–36 hours. Faster curing on passive metals or at low temperatures is possible with Loxeal Activator 11 (may lower final strength).

Applications include:

• Thread locking and sealing for bolts and fittings in mechanical, hydraulic, and water supply systems
• Gas, oil, chemical, and potable water line installations
• Use on metal threads with minor oil contamination

Summary

Loxeal 55-03 is a trusted solution for secure yet serviceable thread joints in both gas and drinking water systems. Depend on it for safe, lasting, and removable sealing in demanding environments.
