Oatey HERSTA3LB Hercules Sta Put Superior Grade Plumber's Putty 3 Lb Pail

Product Description

The Oatey HERSTA3LB Hercules Sta Put Superior Grade Plumber's Putty is a professional-grade sealing compound used to create watertight seals around drains, faucet bases, sink strainers, and other plumbing fixtures. This putty comes in a 3 lb pail and is a staple in the toolbox of plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance professionals who need a reliable, easy-to-work-with sealing material for a wide range of fixture installations. The off-white solid form stays workable and pliable, making it simple to roll, press, and shape around surfaces without cracking or crumbling during application. Plumber's putty of this grade is designed to stay in place over time, resisting shrinkage and hardening that can cause seal failure in older or lower-quality compounds. The Sta Put formula is built to deliver consistent performance on both new construction and repair jobs. Its superior grade classification means it meets higher standards for density, composition, and long-term stability compared to standard-grade alternatives. The specific gravity of 2.15 to 2.35 indicates a dense, heavy-bodied material that holds its shape under pressure and around curved or irregular surfaces. With a flash point above 212 degrees Fahrenheit, this putty is safe to handle and store under normal working conditions. The VOC content of just 6 g/L makes it a low-emission option, appropriate for use in spaces where air quality matters. The composition includes 60 to 100 percent calcium carbonate as the primary base, along with kaolin, mineral wool, and a petroleum-based lubricating oil that gives the putty its smooth, workable texture. This plumber's putty is ideal for sealing sink drains, lavatory faucets, basket strainers, and tub drains. It does not harden, crack, or shrink, and it remains flexible after application. Trade professionals rely on this type of compound for consistent, leak-free results on the job.
