- FA-8: Low viscosity fluid for bonding and sealing
beryllium, aluminum and other metals.
- FA-14: Very low viscosity and excellent wetting
property for bonding fused beryllium oxide ceramics, and
other metals.
- CI-9: Low viscosity system with excellent color
stability for coating, bonding and clear casting
applications. Meets NASA outgassing requirements.
- FA-48: Clear, low viscosity and high Glass
Transition Temperature for high temperature applications.
- FA-56: Very low viscosity with high resilience.
Useful for bonding various substrates as well as for small
pottings where a clear system is desired.
