It's just a type of thread sealant found in most plumbing departments and some auto parts stores.

I use the Permatex brand. I got it at NAPA.

Well why don't you ask Elroy?

Elroy used Loctite #567 to seal the cylinder to the main body on both the WS AND the O'Boy/OS jack builds. This joint is at the high pressure end of the cylinder. Hein-Werner augmented the metal to metal seal developed by seating the cylinder into the main body with an o-ring on the WS jack where the O'Boy relied solely on the metal to metal seal and the threads.

That be it.

There are a lot different threads sealer you could use. Elroy just happened to have that particular thread sealer on hand so it got called into duty. Any Loctite dealer should be able to fix you up.
