Threadlocker X50 for CNG Bottles

Threadlocker X50 for CNG Bottles

We were recently contacted by a manufacturer of CNG Gas Bottles which are used in the automotive sector. The customer was looking for an adhesive which would permanently seal brass gas regulators into the threaded steel gas bottles. The key requirement was that the adhesive much have a minimum service pressure of 3500 P.S.I. For us, the choice was simple. X50 Hydraulic Thread Locker is the leader when permanently locking & sealing threaded fasteners. Following customer evaluation & approval, X50 was introduced into the production process.

X50 is available in various pack sizes ranging from 10 ml to 1000 ml.
