Arexons pik liquid seal 65 ml cod. 0012
- Total Gasoline Resistance: Unlike silicones, it is formulated to withstand immersion in gasoline, diesel and agricultural fuels.
- Ideal for Carburetors: The ultimate product for sealing carburetor float bowls, fuel pumps and fuel system fittings.
- Strengthens Solid Gaskets: Perfect for spreading on paper, cork and felt gaskets to impregnate them and improve their seal over time.
- Semi-Drying: Forms an elastic and tenacious film that never hardens completely, absorbing vibrations without cracking.
- For Ground Surfaces: Creates a minimal thickness, ideal for precision mechanical couplings (motorcycle crankcases, gearboxes) where tolerances are tight.
The indispensable historical sealant where silicone can't reach.

Arexons Pik: The Hermetic Sealer That's Not Afraid of Gasoline
If you need to seal a carburetor or fuel pump, leave the silicone tube alone: it would dissolve in a few minutes, clogging the jets. For the fuel system, you need the specialist: Arexons Pik Liquid Gasket (Code 0012) . It's a viscous fluid compound, known to expert mechanics as "putty" or "sealant," designed to resist the most aggressive hydrocarbons.
When to use Pik instead of silicone?
The Pik covers applications where silicone pastes fail:
- Contact with Fuels: It is the only safe solution for sealing fittings, threads and flanges in direct contact with unleaded petrol, diesel, LPG or kerosene.
- Gasket Integration: Not only can it be used to create gaskets from scratch, it's also excellent for "wetting" pre-cut paper, cardboard, or cork gaskets. By impregnating them, it prevents them from drying out or sweating oil and gasoline over time.
- Precise Fits: If two metal pieces are finely machined (ground) and need to meet almost perfectly, silicone would be too thick. Pik creates an extremely thin film that seals the micro-porosities without altering the mechanical dimensions.
Technical Features
- Thermal Resistance: From -20°C to +120°C.
- Chemical Resistance: Excellent to gasoline, mineral oils, steam, gas, water.
- Consistency: Viscous, spread with a brush or spatula (or directly from the nozzle).
- Ease of Removal: Cleans easily with alcohol or solvents, making future repairs easier.
Instructions for use
- Clean and degrease surfaces (metal or solid gasket).
- Spread a thin, even layer of Pik on both sides or on the solid gasket.
- Wait a few minutes for the solvent to evaporate and the product to become "sticky" to the touch.
- Assemble the parts and tighten.
- The product never hardens completely "to glass", maintaining a plasticity that guarantees the seal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use it in place of the carburetor bowl gasket?
Yes. If the original rubber/paper gasket is broken and unavailable, a well-stretched piece of Pik can replace it. Just be careful not to overdo it, as it might end up inside the reservoir.
Is it suitable for the engine head?
No. The Pik resists temperatures up to 120°C. The cylinder head and exhaust reach much higher temperatures. These require a specific metal gasket or Red Paste (Motorsil D).
Does it harden like silicone?
No, it's a "non-hardening plastic" sealant. It becomes very viscous and compact, but not rubbery like silicone. This feature allows for easier disassembly in the future.
Can I use it on petrol fitting threads?
Yes, it is excellent as a lightweight threadlocker and sealant for threaded fuel line connections, preventing leaks and loosening due to vibration.
