A131
This highly specialised anaerobic adhesive that has received both KIWA Hydrogen and WRAS approvals, underscoring its reliability and safety for use in critical applications. This adhesive is engineered specifically for sealing threaded metal pipe connections, making it ideal for systems that transport a wide variety of gases and liquids, including potable water. The versatility of Permabond® A131 is evident in its suitability for both parallel and tapered threads, offering flexibility in a range of installation scenarios.
One of the standout features of Permabond® A131 is its delayed cure time, which allows for precise alignment of components during assembly. This characteristic is particularly valuable in complex piping systems where accurate positioning is crucial to ensuring a secure and leak-free connection. Unlike many traditional mastics, which can dry out and require frequent rework, Permabond® A131 provides an immediate pressure seal that remains durable over time. This eliminates the need for ongoing maintenance and rework, enhancing the efficiency and reliability of the system.
Additionally, should the need for disassembly arise, Permabond® A131 ensures that the process is straightforward and can be accomplished using standard tools. This ease of disassembly is a significant advantage, allowing for maintenance or modifications to be carried out without the need for specialised equipment or procedures.
Overall, the combination of KIWA Hydrogen and WRAS approvals, coupled with its robust sealing capabilities and ease of use, makes Permabond® A131 an excellent choice for applications involving hydrogen, potable water, and other critical fluid systems. Its ability to maintain a reliable seal without drying out ensures long-term performance and peace of mind for both installers and end-users.
