Questions & Answers

Are there any differences between the "aviation" and the "super 300" versions? In order to use it on a chainsaw cylinder base, I need a cylinder adapter. ?

While I feel they are the same, I have used super 300 in applications for which a gasket is also required, usually paper or cork. For example, I have used super 300 in valve cover gaskets, timing cover gaskets, and As far as consistency goes, I find the 300 to be a little thicker than the aviation formula that I tend to use with metal gaskets The cylinder bases may be sealed differently depending on what is used to seal up the cylinder.

Due to the fact that I used this stuff rather than a gasket for this little piece on the bottom of my intake monifold, should I use this or should I use ?

For when you do not have a gasket, you can use an RTV silicone gasket maker. It depends on what you applied it to and the surface you applied it to. Permatex gaskets from other manufacturers may be of interest. I am very happy with them.

What is the durability of permatex super 300 with regards Are the threads of NPT fittings sealed?

It is based on Permatex's report. A diesel fuel application is said to be used. You should be able to do so.

It is supposed to be used with a gasket, but I am certainly not an expert
3/5

I bought it as a thread sealer so I could use it to seal holes in water jackets, oil galley plugs, and freeze plugs. My old reliable silicone sealer was always my first choice for stat housings and other engine seals. For extra assurance on older engines, just a very thin coat should be applied on either side of the gasket. This product could be used the same way, but I think that silicone sealer would be better suited for what you are referring to. It's the copperlike gold colored stuff from Permatex that I love. It's low odor and stands up to high temperatures. This may be of some help to.

I don't like it
5/5

that has been used and opened previously. Initially didn't like having an item that had been previously opened and used, but I will still keep it. I do not believe it has been tampered with, but I think people should be honest and not use a product like this and then return it because the rest of us are getting their It's best for people to borrow things first and keep them from taking them home or returning them. In addition, manufacturers should have safety seals on products like these to keep dishonest people from taking small amounts and then returning them. Further, Amazon should not allow customers to return these types of items for a refund since this encourages people to use them for a little bit and then return them for a refund, unless of course it's broken or spilled.

This is an old school product
5/5

Permatex sealers are unbeatable in engines especially cars and trucks. On my old tractor, I used it to help seal the water pump and thermostat housing gaskets. There are no problems with this model, and it is a good value in today's market.

There were no leaks of antifreeze
3/5

In preparation for the installation of a new Ford 4, a thin coat of Permatex 300 was applied. The cylinder head coolant ports are surrounded by a 6L intake manifold Intake coolant ports made from plastic have been added as well. A small amount of pitting was not found on aluminum cylinder head coolant ports. There was absolutely no leak or problem after the engine was run a few times and several miles were driven. A D is what I am. So please do so at your own risk if you decide to use it.
