Permatex 82180 Ultra Black Gasket Maker Instructions

Permatex 82180 Ultra Black Gasket Maker

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Permatex Ultra Black Gasket Maker is a single-component, room temperature, vulcanizing, gasketing compound designed to provide reliable “formed-in-place” gaskets for mechanical assemblies. This material cures on exposure to moisture in the air to form a tough, flexible, silicone rubber gasket. The product resists aging, weathering, and thermal cycling without hardening, shrinking or cracking. Designed to provide increased oil resistance and complies with extended warranty requirements. OEM Specified.

PRODUCT BENEFITS

• Improved oil resistance
• Sensor-safe, non-corrosive
• Good adhesion and flexibility
• Replaces most cut gaskets
• Can be used as a gasket maker or dressing
• Non-flammable, Non-toxic
• Low odor

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

• Oil pans
• Transmission pans
• Valve covers
• Valves and guides
• Timing gear covers
• Differential covers

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

For assembly as a form-in-place gasket

1. Remove all previous material from mating surfaces. Permatex® Gasket Remover is recommended for most materials, not for plastics or painted surfaces.
2. For best results, clean and dry all surfaces with a residue-free solvent, such as Permatex® Brake and  Parts Cleaner
3. Cut nozzle to desired bead size, 1/16” to 1/4” in diameter. A 1/8” bead is usually sufficient for most applications.
4. Remove cap, puncture tube, or cartridge seal and attach the extension nozzle.
5. Apply a continuous and even bead of silicone to one  surface, first tracing the internal areas of the gasket configuration, then all surrounding bolt holes as shown  below:
6. Assemble parts immediately while the silicone is still wet.
7. Finger-tighten the flange only until the material begins to seep out the sides of the flange.
8. Allow to set for at least two hours and re-torque at least one quarter to one-half turn.
9. For best results, allow to cure overnight.

For assembly as a gasket dressing

1. Repeat steps 1 through 4 as in the previous section.
2. Apply a thin film of silicone to one surface to be sealed.
3. Place the pre-cut gasket onto the silicone film.
4. Apply a second thin film to the pre-cut gasket surface.
5. Remove any excess and assemble parts immediately.
   Note : The product is not recommended for use as a cylinder head gasket or head gasket sealant.

Instructions for PowerBead

1. Clean and dry all flange surfaces to be sealed.
2. Remove the black cap from top of the extension nozzle.
3. Turn the nozzle extension one complete turn (360) counterclockwise.
4. Depress the finger trigger and apply a continuous 1/16 inch to 1/8 inch PowerBead to one surface.
5. Assemble parts immediately while the silicone is still wet.
6. Finger tighten the flange only until the material begins to seep out the sides of the flange.
7. Allow to set for at least two hours and re-torque at least one quarter to one half turn.
8. For best results, allow to cure overnight.
9. To close, turn the extension nozzle clockwise until tight (about one full turn). Wipe off excess material from the nozzle and replace the black cap.

Storage of Unused Product

• Create a “Silicone Plug” by allowing excess material to extend beyond the extension nozzle or aerosol tip to cure, seal, and protect the remaining product from moisture. For reuse, simply remove the cured product from the tip.
• For PowerBead dispensers, you may store the remaining product using either the above “silicone plug” method or using the included plastic cap.

For Cleanup

• Remove uncured products from parts and hand tools with Permatex® Fast Orange® Wipes or Fast Orange® Hand Cleaners. If skinned over, break the film with a dry cloth to remove as much as possible. Remove the remaining material with Permatex® Gasket Remover.
• Clean hands with a dry cloth or Permatex® Fast Orange Hand Cleaner.
