Clear enough to read through, these UV-resistant potting compounds allow optimal light transmission for use with LEDs, solar cells, and fiber optics. Use them to encase electronic assemblies for protection from dust, moisture, mechanical shock, and vibration. Softer and more flexible than epoxies and urethanes with the widest temperature range, these silicone rubber compounds are the best choice for high-temperature applications and electronics exposed to thermal cycling. They have excellent electrical insulation and good moisture resistance but poor chemical and abrasion resistance. Also known as RTV (room-temperature vulcanizing).

Thinner than standard potting compounds, these coatings flow easily into small spaces between electrical components. Use them to secure and insulate hardware on printed circuit boards. Rigid and wear resistant, epoxies have excellent chemical and moisture resistance, withstand a wide range of temperatures, and provide excellent electrical insulation. Dispense with a mixer nozzle and a gun (each sold separately).

Clear enough to read through, these UV-resistant potting compounds allow optimal light transmission for use with LEDs, solar cells, and fiber optics. 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. All require a mixer nozzle and gun to dispense.

Handle potted items within minutes—these potting compounds dry quickly when exposed to UV light. For added strength and durability, cure them with heat. Since they’re epoxy, they won’t break down from chemicals or moisture. They’re also excellent electrical insulators and withstand a wide range of temperatures. Use them to shield components from dust, moisture, chemicals, mechanical shock, and vibration. You need a mixer nozzle (not included) and a gun and plunger (both sold separately) to dispense. The nozzle lets you apply these compounds precisely.

For maximum effectiveness, these compounds need to be heat cured after they’re cured with UV light. Overall dry time includes heat curing at 149° F.

These compounds dry quickly when exposed to UV light allowing you to handle the potted items sooner. Made of silicone rubber, they’re softer and more flexible than epoxy or urethane compounds, so they’re better at protecting against shocks and vibration. They also withstand a wider range of temperatures, so they’re often used with electronics that heat and cool rapidly. These compounds are excellent electrical insulators, and they’ll shield your components from moisture and dust. However, they don’t hold up well to abrasion or chemicals. The tapered nozzle lets you apply them precisely.

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.

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.

Take your time to precisely align parts, then create bonds that stay strong in humid and damp environments. These adhesives won't harden until you expose them to a compatible light source.

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.
