Permatex The Right Stuff 34423 High Temp Red Silicone Gasket Maker, 3 oz, 1 Minute Cure
Permatex The Right Stuff 34423 High Temp Red Silicone Gasket Maker, 3 oz, 1 Minute Cure
Permatex The Right Stuff 34423 is a high temperature red silicone gasket maker packaged in a 3 ounce container. It forms a one piece, formed-in-place gasket directly on the part, replacing cut gaskets on applications such as exhaust manifolds, turbochargers, and slip-fit exhaust parts. The red RTV silicone formula is OEM specified and sensor safe, meaning it will not interfere with oxygen sensors or other vehicle sensors during and after application.
The Right Stuff cures fast, returning the vehicle or equipment to service in as little as 1 minute, which reduces downtime compared to slower-curing gasket makers. Once cured, the formed gasket resists intermittent temperatures up to 650 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suited to high heat exhaust and engine locations where standard sealants can fail. Because it forms a single continuous piece rather than a jointed gasket, it resists failure from vibration and thermal expansion, common causes of gasket leaks over time.
Permatex 34423 is intended for exhaust manifolds, turbochargers, and slip-fit exhaust connections, and is applied directly from the container without the need for a separate gasket material.
