Swagelok® Sealants
Swagelok® pipe thread sealants enable leak-tight sealing in a variety of applications, enhancing system safety. Swagelok® TP series heat exchanger tube plugs can extend the life of your heat exchanger, reducing maintenance costs.
View SealantsSwagelok pipe thread sealants provide leak-tight sealing in a variety of applications due to compatibility with a variety of chemicals. They are rated for a range of system pressures and temperatures.
- Swagelok SWAK™ anerobic pipe thread sealant is quick and easy to apply and clings to threads without shredding or tearing on assembly. It lubricates threads, preventing costly thread damage due to galling and seizing during assembly. SWAK also cures to a bond that resists vibration or shock and allows low-breakaway torque for easy-to-break connections even after fully cured.
- Swagelok® PTFE-free thread sealant works similarly to SWAK, sealing immediately in applications where PTFE-based sealants are undesirable
- Swagelok® PTFE tape pipe thread sealant conforms to Commercial Item Description A-A-58092 and can be used on male tapered pipe threads at temperatures up to 450°F (232°C)
Swagelok® TP series heat exchanger tube plugs can extend the life of your heat exchanger by sealing the ends of leaking tubes. A uniform taper and smooth surface finish promote positive sealing with minimum force required for installation. Tube plugs are available in a variety of materials for system compatibility.
