Temp-Tite II String Sealant

Two major turbine manufacturers specify Temp-Tite II as the sealant of choice for their equipment. Temp-Tite II is a plastic, high-solid sealant extruded into rope or string form and applied to a joint face, making it possible to seal complex joint designs without a pre-made gasket. Sealant is suited for sealing rough or irregular joints of turbines, boilers, heat exchangers, compressors, pumps, blowers, piping, or a variety of other high temperature/pressure metal to metal joints. During joint assembly, sealant will flow into rough or irregular surfaces to provide a durable seal. Temp-Tite II expands under heat and cures to a leathery like consistency, and will not crack due to thermal cycling or vibration. Joint disassembly is easy, as the sealant does not excessively harden which allows for quick separation.

Typical Sealant Applications:

• Sealant for gas and steam turbine components (great for pitted, steam cut, or slightly warped flange faces)

• Blast furnace flange and valve gasket

• Valve packing

• Exhaust, flue and scrubber assemblies

• Inspection cover gasket on pressure vessels

Sealant Advantages:

• Resists pressure, vacuum, joint movement and vibration

• Resistant to steam, acids, alkalies and solvents

• Outlasts silicones and teflons

• Works well on rough or irregular surfaces

• Temp-Tite II is not classified as a hazardous material and is able to be shipped by any means worldwide

• Temp-Tite II is available through our Just-In-Time shipping program
