The Only RTV for High-Heat Engine Jobs
If you're working on anything high-heat, like an exhaust manifold or turbo application, this is the only gasket maker to use. The Ultra Copper RTV is a workhorse—it handles maximum temperatures without breaking down, shrinking, or leaking. It goes on smoothly, cures quickly, and forms a super durable, tight seal. I've used it on headers where standard RTV would just burn up, and this holds strong. It's the professional choice for reliability under extreme heat. Essential for engine work.

Works great, but bottle itself is weak
Used this for a couple projects and it works great. The silicone has amazing adhesive-ness and temperature resistance that even after hours of continuous heat its not budging. That being said, the bottle it comes in has a weak back stich. A little too much pressure on trying to push out stuff and all of the bottle exploded out the back end. product is great, packaging is unfortantely poor.
