That's the normal temperature of a diesel exhaust but it can get up to 1000 degrees when stressed or when there is a problem, so I might look for something else. https://www.firstsupply.com/Product/HCCMEGALOC <https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.firstsupply.com%2fProduct%2fHCCMEGALOC&c=E,1,TA10JgQMBUudqWN5w6mDVysyfki1LK70XQgXsS9d5D848zCMF8VFDbzjbWOdmlaRHi6YJpIqZ-pGBBYGx4h8ij16JQ1xUHs5ebfdhrbUW7lHPKTY0KYb2DtAycgT&typo=1> C On 07/15/2023 10:58 AM EDT Matt Wolford via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com <mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com> > wrote: I’m not a mechanic and have not played one on TV. Based on the recommendation of a very good mechanic, I stopped using Teflon tape and now use Gasoila on everything with a pipe thread connection (hot or cold).

I am replacing the engine's exhaust riser or mixing elbow and associated threaded 1 1/4" and 1 1/2" nipples, and want to use the right pipe dope that can handle the heat and make a good seal and hopefully make it easier to take apart for the next person. I've been adised to use Never-Sieze on the bolts holding the flange and want to use Megaloc by Hercules on the pipe threads, but don't see any temperature stats on the can. Any suggestions?
