Volvo Penta Non-Setting Sealant — Part #1161099, 125 mL
Genuine Volvo Penta non-setting sealing compound, part number 1161099, supplied in a 125 mL container. This slow-drying sealant is designed for flat machined or abraded mating surfaces, gasket joints, hose connections, and threaded connections where the Volvo Penta workshop manual specifies compound 1161099-5. Unlike rigid flange sealants or high-temperature chemical gaskets, this compound remains pliable after curing — making it well suited to larger sealing areas and joints that may see minor movement or vibration. It is referenced across a wide range of Volvo Penta engine and sterndrive service procedures.
Compatible Applications
- Flat machined or abraded mating surfaces where 1161099-5 is specified
- Gasket joints on Volvo Penta marine engines and sterndrives
- Hose connections requiring a non-setting sealing compound
- Threaded connections specified in Volvo Penta workshop procedures
- Any Volvo Penta engine or drive service procedure referencing compound 1161099-5 or Permatex No. 3 equivalent

When to Use
Apply fresh sealant whenever:
- Reassembling a joint where the workshop manual specifies compound 1161099-5
- Replacing or resealing applicable gaskets during engine or drive service
- Servicing hose or threaded connections that require this compound
- Reassembling mating surfaces after old sealant has been fully removed and cleaned
Application Notes
Mating surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of oil, grease, paint, and old sealant before application. Remove all traces of the previous compound before resealing. Apply only the amount specified in the applicable Volvo Penta workshop procedure — excess sealant can migrate into oil passages or cooling circuits. Follow the workshop manual for cure time before pressurizing or loading the joint.
Sealant Selection Guide
Volvo Penta uses several different sealing compounds, each for a specific application type. Use 1161099 only where the workshop manual specifies this compound:
- 1161099 (this product) — Non-setting compound for flat surfaces, gaskets, hose and thread connections
- Permatex No. 3 — Alternative equivalent referenced in some Volvo Penta workshop manuals
- Volvo Penta Black RTV Silicone Sealant 1161277 — High-temperature silicone for applications requiring RTV-type sealing
Technical FAQ
Q: Can I use RTV silicone or anaerobic flange sealant instead of 1161099?
No. Volvo Penta specifies different compounds for different joint types. Substituting an anaerobic flange sealant, high-temperature RTV, or thread-locking compound where 1161099 is called for can result in improper sealing or joint failure. Always follow the workshop manual specification.
Q: What is the workshop manual reference number for this sealant?
Volvo Penta workshop manuals reference this compound as 1161099-5. The product you receive is part number 1161099 in a 125 mL container.
Q: How long does the sealant take to cure?
This is a slow-drying, non-setting compound. Refer to the applicable Volvo Penta workshop procedure for the recommended cure or assembly time before loading the joint.
Parts Desk Insights
The most common mistake with Volvo Penta sealants is using the wrong compound for the job — particularly substituting a rigid anaerobic flange sealant or silicone RTV where the non-setting 1161099 is specified. These are not interchangeable. If your workshop manual calls for 1161099-5, this is the correct product. It is also worth noting that Permatex No. 3 is referenced as an equivalent in some older Volvo Penta manuals, so if you have that on hand it may be acceptable — but when in doubt, use the genuine Volvo Penta compound to stay within spec. Keep the container sealed between uses; the compound can skin over if left open.
