Form-a-gasket Type-2 Automotive Gasket Compound 3 Oz 1 Pk

Permatex Form-A-Gasket #2 is a slow-drying, non-hardening sealant designed to seal cut gaskets and stamped metal parts. Unlike rigid adhesives, this paste-form compound prioritizes sealing over permanent bonding, making it ideal for applications where parts may need to be disassembled for service or repair. The sealant resists common automotive fluids—gasoline, oil, grease and other shop chemicals—ensuring a reliable, durable seal in demanding engine environments.

This versatile sealant is approved for both automotive and aviation applications. Common uses include valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, and other engine compartment sealing tasks where easy removal of sealed components is important. The non-hardening formula allows parts to be separated without cracking or damage, making it a practical choice for technicians who need to access and service engine components.
