Loctite SF 7100 Leak Detector
Ensure maximum operational safety and prevent costly downtime with LOCTITE SF 7100, the industry-standard leak detection spray formulated for pressurized gas and compressed air systems. As a trusted industrial supplier, we keep this essential maintenance critical spare in stock and ready for immediate dispatch.
This commercial grade, aqueous surfactant-based formula is delivered via an easy-to-use aerosol spray. Upon application to pipework joints, valves, or suspect fittings, it immediately produces a highly visible foam bubble structure at the precise source of escaping gas. Non-flammable and non-toxic, LOCTITE SF7100 allows for rapid, worry-free fault finding and safety commissioning on a wide range of industrial piping materials.
Key Performance Benefits
- Instant Leak Visualization: Aerosol application generates localized bubbling and long-lasting foam at leak points, preventing rushed inspections.
- Substrate Versatility: Fully compatible and safe for use on iron, copper, and plastic pipework systems.
- Enhanced Worker Safety: Formulated with a non-toxic, non-flammable surfactant mixture utilizing a nitrogen propellant.
- Multi-Gas Compatibility: Highly effective for tracing leaks in pressurized air, nitrogen, helium, argon, and other compressed gas lines. *(Note: Not recommended for pure oxygen, chlorine, or strong oxidizing systems).*

Application Instructions
For optimum results, shake the aerosol can thoroughly before use. Maintain a distance of 15 to 20 cm and spray directly onto the suspect joint, weld, or connection. Bubbles will immediately form where gas is escaping. Once the leak is identified, wipe off any excess residue before initiating maintenance. Ensure workers utilize appropriate PPE.
