Can a general-purpose sealant be used on engines or mechanical parts?
Using a general-purpose sealant on engines or mechanical components is risky and often leads to failure. These sealants may not tolerate the high temperatures, vibration, or exposure to oil and fuel found in mechanical systems. For automotive engines, you need high-temperature RTV silicone or a manufacturer-approved gasket maker that forms a durable, heat- and oil-resistant seal. For thread sealing, an anaerobic thread locker or sealant is typically recommended. Using the correct product ensures reliability, prevents leaks, and protects surrounding components. Always check the product specifications and compatibility with your application before use.
What’s the best way to prepare a surface before applying sealant?
Proper surface preparation is critical for sealant adhesion and performance. Begin by cleaning the surface thoroughly—remove old sealant, dirt, oil, grease, and moisture using a degreaser or appropriate cleaner. For smooth metal surfaces, a light abrasion with fine sandpaper or a wire brush can help improve bond strength. Ensure the surface is dry before applying the new sealant. If using RTV, allow it to form a “skin” before assembly if required. Anaerobic sealants, on the other hand, work best between tight-fitting clean metal parts. Following these steps will extend the life and effectiveness of your seal.
How long do sealants typically last after application?
The longevity of a sealant depends on the type, application, and environmental conditions. High-quality RTV silicone sealants can last up to 20 years when used correctly, especially in indoor or sealed environments. Anaerobic sealants used in mechanical joints often last the lifespan of the component if installed properly. However, exposure to UV light, constant movement, extreme heat, or corrosive substances can reduce a sealant's life. Regular maintenance checks are recommended, especially in critical systems like engines or pressurised pipework. When sealants begin to crack, peel, or lose adhesion, it’s time to reapply.
