Anaerobic Gasket Maker – This is a single component, medium strength anaerobic sealant that cures rapidly. It cures when confined in the absence of air between close fitting aluminum surfaces. It provides a tough, resilient, solvent and temperature resistant seal that flexes with flange movement cause by vibration pressurization, or thermal changes. It is very useful for gearbox and engine castings.

ZipGrip – The ZipGrip line is built around medium-viscosity epoxies that are rubber-based. In general, these epoxies are excellent at withstanding oils and alcohols, but not as strong when exposed to acids.

Popular ZipGrip Formulas:

  • ZipGrip TE 500
  • ZipGrip TE 1000
  • ZipGrip TE 2400
  • ZipGrip TE 5000
  • ZipGrip TE Gel
  • ZipGrip SIE 30
  • ZipGrip SIE 100
  • ZipGrip SIE Gel

Flame Retardant Epoxies – The HP 250 FR is an epoxy with superior chemical, heat, water, and impact resistance. It is also the epoxy of choice for resisting various types of acids and fuel solvents. It has high shear strength and is ideal for use in aircraft interiors. Also indicated as flame retardant is the 5 Minute Epoxy, popular for its ease of dispense, quick drying time, and use in dissimilar surfaces. The tougher 10 Minute Epoxy is a more flexible two-component epoxy, but still excellent for bonding dissimilar surfaces. It reaches almost full cure in less than 20 minutes, and is resistant to fuels, hydrocarbons, oils, and impact.
