The brand's origin story began when founder Constant A. Benoit Sr. developed a shellac for bonding bicycle tires, then revolutionized automotive repair by creating an experimental gasket cement that helped a race car complete a grueling 24-hour endurance event without further head gasket failures.

Product Details

Permatex Form-A-Gasket #2 is a slow-drying, non-hardening sealant specifically designed for sealing cut gaskets and stamped metal parts. This flexible formula remains pliable to accommodate minor movement and thermal expansion, while providing a reliable seal that prevents leaks without the brittleness of traditional hardening gasket compounds.

Key Features:

  • Non-hardening formula allows for easy disassembly and gasket reuse when maintenance is required
  • Wide temperature range of -65?F to 400?F (-54?C to 204?C) for versatile applications
  • Resists common shop fluids, fuels, oils, and automotive chemicals
  • Ideal for use on valve covers, oil pans, timing covers, and other stamped or cut gasket applications
  • Slow-drying formulation provides extended working time for proper positioning
  • 3 oz. tube size convenient for multiple applications

This gasket sealant is particularly useful in applications where sealing is more important than extreme rigidity, making it an essential addition to any automotive, marine, or powersports toolbox. Apply a thin, even coat to both surfaces and allow appropriate tack time before assembly.

I recently ordered 2 Borla Dual Round Intercooled Tips from Autoplicity.com for one reason and reason only...their prices can not be beat! No where else online can anyone match them! <br>

Best prices, fast shipping, good service. Thank you!

Was looking online for the best price on a part and found that autoplicity had the lowest price and free shipping on it. I ordered it and it was shipped the next day along with tracking number. I will be ordering a few more parts from autoplicity. Order Number: 27769

I have placed orders with Autoplicity 3 times in the last 2 months, and have received excellent delivery, pricing and customer service in every instance. Thanks!

** Update 4/18/2012<br>Everything arrived in several different shipments. I did experience a problem with some FelPro Headbolts that I had ordered. I ordered two and only received one, but after a short phone call with Paul from shipping, the problem was fixed and my second set of bolts were shipped.<br><br>They had the cheapest price that I could find on several products. I did not like the order confirmations on there website as I had to copy and paste to search for my tracking number. I am supposed to receive my order today and I am scared because the two weights do not match up. Autoplicity says 37.7 pounds and fedex says 3.8 pounds. Maybe there is more than one tracking number and I just do not know.
