Description

J-B Weld Hi-Temp Red Silicone Gasket Maker & Sealant is an RTV (Room Temperature Vulcanized) Silicone gasketing material, designed for use in mechanical assemblies where the existence of higher, continuous temperatures up to 550º F or 650º F intermittent might exist. Upon curing, which occurs when the product is exposed to the moisture in air, the silicone forms a tough, waterproof seal on most surfaces. It will not shrink or crack, resists weathering, is sensor safe and is great for many automotive applications.

Application

J-B Weld 31914 is a red, high-temperature RTV silicone gasket maker used for sealing engine parts, automotive components, and industrial machinery needing heat resistance up to 550°F (650°F intermittent). Its application involves cleaning surfaces, applying a ¼-inch bead of silicone, assembling parts while wet, hand-tightening, allowing 1 hour to dry, then tightening further and letting it fully cure for a durable, waterproof seal.

Direction to Use

1.Prepare Surfaces: Clean thoroughly with a degreaser, removing all oil, dirt, and old gasket material. Roughen surfaces with sandpaper for better adhesion. 2.Apply Silicone: Squeeze a continuous ¼-inch bead of the silicone onto one surface, ensuring it surrounds all bolt holes. 3.Assemble: Reconnect the parts while the silicone is still wet. 4.Secure: Hand-tighten bolts until you see the silicone squeeze out slightly. 5.Cure: Allow it to dry for 1 hour, then tighten the bolts an additional half-turn. Let it fully cure (often 24 hours for best results) before use, as it’s a Room Temperature Vulcanized (RTV) product.
