Purpose
Leak problems solved in just one second.
Leak Aid is an innovative leak repair material that instantly cures under UV light and can be used for various leaks involving oil, water, gas, and more.
Its unique “oil-compatible” property makes it especially suitable for sealing leaks in hydraulic lines, air piping, and refrigerant piping where complete oil removal is difficult.
Features
| Can Bond Directly to Oily Surfaces | Blends well with oil before curing and provides excellent oil resistance after curing, making it ideal for oil leak repair. |
|---|---|
| Cures in 1 Second with UV Irradiation | Instant UV curing allows sealing even during slow leakage, while enabling immediate on-site repair assessment. |
| Optimized Flow Characteristics | Does not sag on vertical surfaces and penetrates into narrow gaps with excellent flowability. |
| Suitable for Repair Applications | After curing, it can be ground, chipped, or machined for repair finishing. |
How to use
- Paint films and rust should be removed in advance before application.
- When repairing areas with an oil film, apply LEAKAID and mix slightly to allow it to blend with the oil. For stronger adhesion, it is recommended that the bonding surface be free of oil whenever possible.
- After curing, the material can be easily removed by applying impact with a chisel and hammer.
