Product Information
Full details
The Refrigeration Technologies RT201B Nylog Gasket/Thread Sealant is an essential tool for professional HVAC and refrigeration technicians seeking to prevent leaks in critical system components. It offers a superior, pressure-tight seal that maintains integrity across various temperature ranges, making it ideal for high-pressure lines and threaded connections. While highly effective, users should note that the blue formula is specifically designed for refrigeration and air conditioning systems and should not be used as a replacement for structural adhesives or thread-locking compounds.

FAQs
Can I use Nylog Blue on high-pressure systems?
Yes, Nylog Blue is designed specifically for refrigeration and HVAC applications, including those involving high-pressure refrigerants.
Does this product harden over time?
No, Nylog is a non-hardening fluid that stays tacky, allowing for easier disassembly of joints in the future.
Is it compatible with all oils?
Nylog Blue is compatible with mineral, alkylbenzene, and POE oils. Please verify specific oil compatibility if using specialty lubricants.
Can I apply this to rubber gaskets?
Yes, it is excellent for lubricating and sealing rubber gaskets, ensuring they remain pliable and leak-free.
How do I remove excess sealant?
Excess can be wiped away with a clean cloth or a rag dampened with an appropriate solvent.
Troubleshooting
Sealant appears too thick to apply easily
Warm the bottle slightly by holding it in your hands, which will reduce viscosity for easier application.
Leak persists after application
Verify that the connection was tightened to manufacturer specifications and ensure the mating surfaces were not damaged or cross-threaded.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Prevents micro-leaks in threaded joints and gaskets
- Does not harden, making future component disassembly easier
- Highly resistant to vibration and pressure fluctuations
- Compatible with most common refrigeration oils and refrigerants
Cons
- Requires careful application to avoid excess buildup
- Not intended for structural bonding applications
- Can be difficult to clean off skin or clothing if spilled
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To apply, ensure the threads or gasket surfaces are clean and free of debris. Apply a light, uniform coat of the blue sealant to the threads or gasket. When tightening connections, the sealant will naturally distribute to fill any voids. Because Nylog is non-hardening, there is no "cure" time required; you can pressurize the system immediately after assembly. Keep the container tightly capped when not in use to prevent contamination. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the viscosity of the formula. If the sealant comes into contact with your hands, use a shop towel to wipe it off followed by standard hand soap.
