Retaining Compounds

Retaining Compounds

Kem Vibra-TITE Anaerobic Retaining Compounds are designed to increase shear strength on non-threaded, cylindrical metal assemblies. The liquid anaerobic material fills voids between close fitting metal assemblies. It cures to a toughened thermoset-plastic which creates a solid one-piece assembly. Retaining compounds seal joints against leakage and prevent corrosion and seizure. These materials have gained wide acceptance as standard method for assembling press-fit and slip-fitted parts.
