Secure Retention.
Reliable Sealing.
What is TRI-SEAL® ?
TRI-Seal® Torque Retention Isolation Sealing Solutions are engineered to provide torque retention and isolation at interfaces where load retention and/or separation of dissimilar materials is important, and robust sealing against water, air, and dust intrusion is required.
- No conductivity or galvanic corrosion
- Dry to the touch or tacky
- Can be heat-bonded (for dry solution) or Pressure sensitive (for tacky solution)
Discover
Light-weighting
Promote light-weighting by allowing the combination of dissimilar metals while providing an isolation barrier, preventing corrosion caused by galvanic reactions.
Sealing
Robust Sealing Against Water, Air and Dust.
Expanding sealant ensures robust sealing against water, air, and dust intrusion, including small capillary paths common in threaded joints and line-to-line conditions.
Fastener Clamp Forces
Maintain Fastener Clamp Forces.
Rigid spheres provide a direct load path to maintain fastener clamp forces regardless of sealer expansion.
TRI-SEAL® Corrosion resistance
In order to meet specific application requirements, we offer both dry and tacky solutions. For the dry-to-touch seal, the sealing material is thinner than the spheres to ensure contact with the metal. For the tacky seal, a thicker seal can be achieved so that the material can flow under clamp load to ensure maximum sealing coverage.

Proven Solutions
Dry-to-the-touch TRI-Seal®
TRI-Seal® dry-to-the-touch requires heat to activate the expandable sealant material.
- Laser cut and sold in rolls or sheets
- Heat bonded to a mating surface or interference fit on a bolt or stud
- Seal material thinner than spacers to ensure contact with mating panels
Tacky TRI-Seal®
TRI-Seal® tacky does not require heat and self-adheres to a mating surface. Torque retention is achieved by the clamp force between substrates being supported by the rigid Alumina spheres. The result, a unique product that is capable of torque retention, isolation, and sealing all at the same time.
- Rotary die-cut
- Self-adhere to a mating surface
- Ability to locally concentrate the rigid spacers in areas where required
- Seal material thicker than spacers to allow flow under compression for maximum sealing coverage
- Customized engineered option (Lock Seal) to increase slip force
