Permatex 65010 High-Temp Red RTV Silicone Gasket Maker

Permatex 65010 High-Temp Red RTV Silicone Gasket Maker is specifically formulated for high-temperature applications and heavy-duty use including towing and performance applications. This professional-grade RTV silicone creates reliable formed-in-place gaskets that resist cracking, shrinking, and migrating caused by thermal cycling.

Key Features:

• Temperature range: -65°F to 650°F (-54°C to 343°C) intermittent exposure
• Creates durable formed-in-place gaskets that replace cut gaskets
• Sensor-safe, non-corrosive formula meets OEM specifications
• Resists automotive and shop fluids including oil
• Can be used to coat pre-cut gaskets to increase reliability
• Cures to a flexible, high-strength seal in 24 hours

This red RTV silicone is ideal for exhaust manifolds, oil pans, valve covers, water pumps, timing covers, and other high-temperature gasketing applications. The formula skins over in one hour and fully cures in 24 hours under normal conditions. Apply a continuous 1/16" to 1/4" bead surrounding all bolt holes, assemble parts while wet, and allow proper cure time for best results.

Note: Not recommended for use on head gaskets or parts in contact with gasoline.
