When it comes to sealing in the most demanding industrial environments, standard materials often fall short. Copaltite is specifically engineered to perform under extreme conditions where other sealants would fail. Whether facing soaring temperatures, intense pressures, or aggressive chemicals, Copaltite provides the reliable solution industries trust.
What is Copaltite?
Copaltite is a high-performance sealing compound available in two forms: liquid and cement. Designed for high temperature and high pressure environments, it is the go-to product for applications across power generation, oil and gas, marine, aviation, and heavy industries.
Both forms are available in convenient 5-ounce tubes or larger 1-quart cans, making it easy to use Copaltite in both field repairs and workshop maintenance operations.
Why choose Copaltite for high temperature and pressure sealing?
Unlike standard sealants that degrade under extreme conditions, Copaltite maintains its sealing integrity at temperatures up to 815°C (1500°F) and pressures exceeding 10,000 psi on threaded joints. It is formulated to resist harsh chemicals, steam, hydrocarbons, refrigerants, hydraulic fluids, and mild acids and alkalis.
Copaltite’s robust chemical and mechanical stability means fewer maintenance interventions, longer service intervals, and reduced risk of equipment failure.
Liquid vs cement form: Which one do I need?
Liquid Copaltite is designed for use on threads and finely machined surfaces, where a close tolerance seal is critical. It flows easily into tight spaces, creating a secure, durable bond.
Cement Copaltite is ideal for rough, scored, or uneven surfaces. It fills irregularities and imperfections, making it perfect for older equipment or critical repairs where surface condition cannot be guaranteed.
Tip:
Even though Copaltite is typically used without gaskets, it also makes an excellent gasket dressing, improving performance in high-pressure flange and fitting applications.

How durable is Copaltite under real industrial conditions?
In real-world applications, Copaltite has proven its ability to withstand:
- Severe vibration and thermal cycling
- Exposure to corrosive chemicals
- Wide temperature fluctuations
- High dynamic pressures
Its unique formulation ensures it bonds tightly to metals, ceramics, rubber, and many plastics, maintaining a seal even under extreme mechanical stresses.
FAQ - Copaltite
Can Copaltite be removed if necessary?
Yes. While Copaltite creates a strong, durable seal, it can be removed with mechanical tools and appropriate solvents when maintenance or disassembly is required. Care should be taken to clean the surfaces thoroughly before reapplying.
Is Copaltite compatible with all materials?
Copaltite is formulated to adhere to a wide range of industrial materials. However, it is advisable to test compatibility on unusual plastics or composites where specific chemical resistance is needed.
How should Copaltite be stored?
Store Copaltite in a cool, dry place in its original container, tightly closed. Shelf life can be extended by protecting it from extreme temperatures and moisture.
