Pretty good value. Fit was slightly tight but it went in fine.

Description
The Loctite LOC88552 is Loctite PST 565 thread sealant, controlled strength, 250 ml tube.
At 250 ml this is the production tube of 565 — for a fabrication shop, an assembly line, or a plant piping crew rather than a service bench. The 50 ml tube in the same range is the bench size, and the distinction matters because anaerobic products have a shelf life. A large tube bought for occasional work gets thrown away part-full.
Controlled strength is the specification and it is what 565 is for. A pipe thread sealant must seal completely and still let the fitting come apart later. Too weak and it leaks; too strong and the next person to service the joint is applying heat to a fitting on a live system. Controlled strength gives a reliable seal that releases with ordinary wrenches.
PST means Pipe Sealant with Teflon. The argument against tape is the sales argument: PTFE tape shreds while being wrapped, and the fragments go downstream into valve seats, orifices, and control components. A liquid anaerobic has nothing to shred.
Tape is also a lubricant, which makes over-tightening easy — and over-tightening a tapered thread splits the female fitting.
The cure is anaerobic: liquid in air, solid when air is excluded and metal is present.
Applications include process piping, hydraulics, pneumatics, and instrumentation.
