It is designed for use on common automotive and industrial materials including aluminum, steel, brass and plated metals. The compound cures anaerobically—hardening in the absence of air—and provides temperature and solvent resistance suitable for many fluid and gas line connections. Cure time varies with temperature and the metal substrate, so working conditions can affect handling time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this thread sealant perform on different metals?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eACDelco's formula bonds to a variety of metals commonly found in automotive systems.
