“In general, our customers see a spike in sales of all Bar’s Leaks cooling system stop leaks and head gasket repair products when the first big cold front moves across the United States,” says Clay Parks, vice president of strategic development for Bar’s Products. “The peak time for our customers to sell premium head gasket repair products like Bar’s Leaks Professional Carbon Fiber Block Seal Head Gasket & Cooling Sealant are the cold winter months of January and February. That’s why we encourage them to stock up to meet this seasonal demand.”
Bar’s Leaks Professional Carbon Fiber Block Seal Head Gasket & Cooling Sealant is one of the company’s newest products, and Bar’s Leaks says it was developed for professional technicians but is available to do-it-yourselfers as well.
Bar’s Leaks cooling sealant is the strongest formula available to permanently seal any coolant leak in plastic, cast iron, copper and aluminum radiators, heater cores, freeze plugs, gaskets, intake manifolds, cylinder heads and engine blocks, the company says. It repairs blown head and intake gasket leaks, seals cracked cylinder heads and blocks, stops heater core and radiator leaks, fixes leaking freeze and core plugs and stops overheating.
Bar’s Leaks says its new cooling sealant is antifreeze-compatible, so there’s no need to flush the cooling system before using it. Bar’s Leaks also says it doesn’t need to be removed at the end of the repair, which means the cooling sealant stays in the vehicle to protect the cooling system against future leaks long after the initial repair.
Bar’s Leaks formula combines liquid glass (sodium silicate) with aramid and refractory fibers. The formula is further reinforced with carbon fiber to bridge larger leaks and create a truly permanent seal that is stronger than the original head gasket itself, the company says.
Bar’s Leaks Head Gasket & Cooling Sealant also features the proprietary wetting agent Xtreme Cool, which the company says reduces the surface tension of coolant, increasing its wetting ability, while improving heat transfer and reducing coolant temperature.
