Thread Sealants

Preventing Leaks with Kem Vibra-TITE Thread Sealants

Kem Vibra-TITE Thread Sealants seals and secures metal pipes and fittings, by filling the space between threaded metal parts. Thread sealants prevents leakage caused by tape shredding, vibration loosening, solvent evaporation, and damaged threads.

Kem Vibra-TITE sealants are designed for both low and high-pressure applications. Thread sealants seal to the burst strength of most piping systems. Because of the lubricating properties, Kem Vibra-Tite thread sealants make it easy to assemble fittings as well as prevent galling of the threads. For repairs, parts may be disassembled with basic hand tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

They are used on pipes to prevent leaks when pressure is applied and to ensure that pipes do not leak fluids while connecting one pipe with another.

The selection is determined by the connected materials, the operational conditions (temperature, pressure), and the ease of removal.

A number of materials could be used with thread sealants, including metals, plastics, and composites. When picking the right sealant for your particular application, compatibility is key.

Yes, our thread sealants can withstand various extreme temperatures and chemicals, guaranteeing their reliability for longer periods of time.

As indicated in the manufacturer’s instructions, clean and dry threads should be sealed with thread sealant compounds before charging the system with pressure.
