Advanced Sealing Compound for Metallic Threaded Connections
Würth Medium-Strength Pipe and Thread and Sealant is a dimethacrylate-based anaerobic compound designed to provide reliable, long-lasting sealing for metallic threaded connections. It is suitable for conical and cylindrical threads up to R3" , in compliance with ISO 7.1 standards making it ideal for industrial, plumbing, and automotive applications.
Instant and Permanent Sealing Performance
The formulation provides an instant pressure seal up to 5 bar, allowing components to be pressurised and tested immediately after tightening. Once fully cured, the seal withstands pressures up to the burst strength, balancing reliable sealing with serviceability. Connections can be disasembled with standard hand tools, facilitating maintenance and rework without thread damage or galling.
Outstanding Chemical and Thermal Resistance
The cured sealant exhibits high resistance to fuels, oils, compressed air, cooling liquids, solvents, and weak alkalis, maintaining sealing integrity between -55°C and 150°C. Its versatility makes it suitable for water, air, and oil systems, including hydraulic, pneumatic, and fuel line applications.
Certifieed Safety and Performance
Würth Medium-Strength Pipe and Thread Selant is DVGW approved (reg. no. NG-5146BM0337), tested in accordance with DIN EN 751-1, and NSF/ANSI 61 certified for use in drinking and service water up to 82°C. It also complies with the German Environment Agency's 2016 recommendation for materials in contact with potable water.
Efficient Packaging for Professional Use
The innovative accordion bottle with adjustable dispensing nozzle provides excellent control over application quantity. It enables single-handed operation, reduces waste, and ensures precise application directly to threads. The design also allows complete product usage, minimising leftover residue.
Compatibility and Precautions
Due to its anaerobic curing mechanism (activated by metal contact and absence of air), this sealant may cure rapidly on copper or copper alloys, especially in warm water systems above 40 °C. Preliminary testing is recommended for such applications to avoid premature curing and micro-cracking. Prolonged exposure to uncured product can affect certain plastics, such as ABS, PMMA, polycarbonate, and polystyrene — these materials should be avoided in contact zones
