Epoxy Structural Adhesives for Hard-to-Bond Materials

Fasten hard-to-bond plastics, such as polypropylene and polyethylene, with these adhesives. They bond dissimilar materials. Epoxies are the strongest and most weather- and chemical-resistant structural adhesives. Choose an adhesive that hardens quickly for fast repairs, or one that hardens slowly to allow more time for positioning.

Two-Part Silicone Potting Compounds

Encase electronic assemblies in a layer of silicone for protection from dust, moisture, mechanical shock, and vibration. Softer and more flexible than epoxies and urethanes with the widest temperature range, silicone potting compounds are the best choice for high-temperature applications and electronics exposed to thermal cycling. They have good moisture resistance but poor chemical and abrasion resistance. Silicones provide excellent electrical insulation. They’re also known as RTV (room-temperature vulcanizing).

Heat-Transfer Potting Compounds

Formulated to draw heat away from sensitive electronic components, these potting compounds have higher thermal conductivity than standard potting compounds. Use them to encase electronic assemblies for protection from dust, chemicals, moisture, mechanical shock, and vibration. Rigid and wear resistant, epoxies are the strongest of the potting compounds. They have excellent chemical and moisture resistance, withstand a wide range of temperatures, and provide excellent electrical insulation.

Blackener Kits for Ferrous Metal Tools

For use with steel and iron parts, these kits create a flat, black protective finish that resists corrosion and reduces glare. Use as an alternative to purchasing black-oxide tools.

Liquid concentrate blackeners include blackener, sealer, and mixing pails. Dilute up to 10 times the amount of blackener in each kit—the higher the concentration, the faster the blackening process.

Strengthening Coatings for Wood

Seal rotting wood to prevent further damage while adding strength to the remaining wood fibers. These coatings penetrate deeply into crumbling wood to give it durability, strength, and moisture resistance. Treated wood can be sawed, drilled, nailed, sanded, and painted. Apply with a brush. The size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
