LOCTITE® SI 598 is a metallic black, 1-part, thixotropic, room temperature vulcanizing oxime silicone paste sealant. It cures on exposure to moisture in the air to form a tough, flexible, silicone rubber gasket. It resists ageing, weathering and thermal cycling without hardening, shrinking or cracking. This product is typically used in applications with an operating range of -54 to +260°C.

• Excellent resistance to automotive motor oils
• Enhances load bearing & shock absorbing characteristics of the bond area
• Typical applications include oil pans, transmission pans, valve covers, valves and guides, timing gear covers, and differential covers

   product is dispensed.
4. Excess material can be easily wiped away with non-polar
   solvents.
   NOTE: LOCTITE® SI 598™ is not recommended for use
   as a cylinder head gasket or head gasket sealant.
5. For full automatic applications a volumetric dispensing
   system is recommended.
