Loctite 565 Anaerobic Thread Sealant (6ml tube)

Every NPT thread on an air system is a future leak. Tapered pipe threads seal on interference; not on a gasket. Metal on metal; cut by a tap; tightened by feel. Leave them bare and you will spend a Saturday with a spray bottle chasing a bubble that moves every time you touch a wrench. Loctite 565 is the thread sealant the air suspension trade settled on. Controlled strength so the fitting still comes apart. PTFE in the formula so it lubricates while you tighten and you reach seal without gorilla torque. One 6ml tube does an install. That is the whole system - tank ports; manifold ports; compressor outlets; sensor tees. It is thirteen dollars against a system that never quite holds overnight.

  • Seals a tapered thread properly - anaerobic sealant fills the spiral leak path that metal on metal leaves open.
  • Controlled strength - the fitting still comes apart when you need to service it.
  • PTFE lubricated - the fitting turns smoothly so you reach seal without stripping a tank port.
  • One tube per install - a whole system of NPT joints from a 6ml tube.
  • The trade standard - this is what air suspension installers reach for and the reason is repeatability.

Install Level: Easy

One 6ml tube.
For NPT tapered pipe threads only. Not for push-to-connect ends.
