Crankcase Sealant

Post by p373r42 »

Hi Guys
What sealer should I be using when I put my crankcase back toghether.
The gasket set comes with Reinzosil (silicon Based Sealant) but I dont think thats any good for the crankcase.

Thanks

Bondloc to a green casing flange sealant that is identical in spec to the equivalent Loctite product.
A fraction of the price, Bondloc is a company set up by ex-Loctite chemists or so I was told.
They even use the same numbers and colours!
