Permabond® LM012 is an unfilled, medium viscosity anaerobic adhesive. Its major benefit as related to other pipe sealants is that it is an unfilled resin that is compatible with hydraulic fluids. If the adhesive is accidentally spilled into the hydraulic system, e.g., squeezed out of the joint, it will be dispersed in the fluid. It contains no particles that can clog or foul hydraulic screens and valves. Thus it is used in very sensitive high pressure hydraulic systems.
