I have two 6061 aluminum parts that I am making with 1.375" - 32 thread. I know it's a fine pitch. I could go a little coarser, like 28 or 24 tpi. I have an insert that screws into a block. I need it to seal and hold 15-20 psi of automotive coolant system pressure.
The thread is very shallow. It's only .350" deep due to limited space.
I bought some threadlock/sealant that was junk. It sealed most of the time, but I got too many parts back leaking (~5%). I would like to go with a name-brand company like Permatex this time.
Any recommendations?
