    Epoxy Potting Compounds

    Encase electronic assemblies in a layer of epoxy for protection from dust, chemicals, moisture, mechanical shock, and vibration. The strongest of the potting compounds, epoxies are rigid and wear resistant. They have excellent chemical and moisture resistance, withstand a wide range of temperatures, and provide excellent electrical insulation. All require a mixer nozzle and gun to dispense.

    Quick-Set Epoxy Structural Adhesives

    Image of Product. Cartridge. Front orientation. Cartridge.

    Cartridge

    For quick repairs, these epoxies begin to harden in six minutes or less. Epoxies are the strongest and most chemical-resistant structural adhesives. They bond especially well on metal.
    These adhesives come in two parts that need to be mixed. The container size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
    Cartridge—To mix and dispense these adhesives, you'll need a mixer nozzle and dispensing gun.
    Thick Liquid—Flow into narrower gaps than gels and pastes, but thick enough to stay put on uneven surfaces.

    Cartridge

    For invisible bond lines, these adhesives dry clear. Epoxies are the strongest and most chemical-resistant structural adhesives. They bond especially well on metal. Choose an epoxy that hardens quickly for fast repairs, or one that hardens slowly to allow more time for positioning.
    These adhesives come in two parts that need to be mixed. The container size listed is the combined total of the two parts.

    Cartridge

    Can

    Protect circuit boards and other electronics from fire and heat. These self-extinguishing compounds meet UL 94V-0 for flame retardance and withstand temperatures up to nearly 400° F. Use them to shield components from dust, moisture, chemicals, mechanical shock, and vibration. Since they’re epoxies, they won’t break down from chemicals or moisture. They’re also excellent electrical insulators. These compounds have the consistency of honey once they’re mixed, so they seep into crevices to encase intricate components.
    Cartridge—Cartridge compounds dispense through a mixer nozzle for precise application. Use them with a dispensing gun.
    Can—Can compounds are easier to apply in high volumes than cartridge compounds. Mix them together and pour them over components inside containers, such as a potting box. If you see air bubbles after mixing, put the mixture in a vacuum chamber to remove them.
    Cannot Be Sold to Canada—These compounds cannot be sold to Canada.
