From shore to sea floor, these potting compounds are formulated for permanent submersion in water—even salt water. Use them to protect circuits and splices in pumps, underwater lighting, and other underwater electronics from corrosion and chemicals. Made of urethane, they withstand a wide range of temperatures, especially cold underwater conditions. They provide good electrical insulation and have excellent flexibility. Since they’re more flexible than epoxy compounds, they’re often used to protect against vibration and impact.

Mix the two parts of these compounds together and pour them over components inside a potting box or other container. If mixing causes air bubbles, put the mixture in a vacuum chamber to remove them.

Tough enough to be permanently submersed in seawater, these compounds protect sensitive electronics, such as circuit boards, semiconductors, and sensors in harsh environments. They resist moisture, salt, and chemicals, so you can use them in corrosive oil, marine, and mining applications. These compounds can also be used within autoclaves. Because they are epoxies, they are rigid, resist wear, and create excellent electrical insulation. They withstand a wide range of temperatures, and this formulation won’t crack or split as components heat up and cool down.

They come in a cartridge, so you can apply them precisely. To dispense, they require a mixer nozzle and gun (both sold separately).

In just 20 seconds under a UV light, these urethane compounds form into a strong protective layer on electrical components. They withstand a wide range of temperatures and are good electrical insulators. They also stop chemicals, moisture, and dust from damaging your device. With excellent flexibility, they protect against vibration and impact. Since they also work as an adhesive, you can use them to bond and insulate components such as electrical connectors and thermal switches. No mixing required.

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.

Urethanes are the most flexible adhesives, so they bond dissimilar materials and damp vibration.

Some of these adhesives come in two parts that need to be mixed. The container size listed is the combined total of the two parts.

Take your time positioning parts that require precise alignment, such as optical instruments. Instead of gripping immediately, these adhesives only harden when you expose them to a compatible light source.
