Epoxy Potting Compounds
Encase electronic assemblies in a layer of epoxy for protection from dust, chemicals, moisture, mechanical shock, and vibration. The strongest of the potting compounds, epoxies are rigid and wear resistant. 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.
Compounds that cannot be sold to Canada are restricted by product labeling requirements.

Light-Activated Epoxy Potting Compounds
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.

Flame-Retardant Epoxy Potting Compounds
Protect circuit boards and other electronics from fire and heat. These self-extinguishing compounds meet UL 94V-0 for flame retardance and withstand temperatures up to nearly 400° F. Use them to shield components from dust, moisture, chemicals, mechanical shock, and vibration. Since they’re epoxies, they won’t break down from chemicals or moisture. They’re also excellent electrical insulators. These compounds have the consistency of honey once they’re mixed, so they seep into crevices to encase intricate components. They’re not for sale in Canada.
Cartridge compounds dispense through a mixer nozzle for precise application. Use them with a dispensing gun.
Can compounds are easier to apply in high volumes than cartridge compounds. Mix them together and pour them over components inside containers, such as a potting box. If you see air bubbles after mixing, put the mixture in a vacuum chamber to remove them.

Optically Clear Two-Part Silicone Potting Compounds
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 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).
Compounds in a cartridge come with a mixer nozzle for precise application. You need a gun (sold separately) to dispense.
Compounds in a bottle are easy to apply in high volumes. Just mix and pour them over components inside containers, such as potting boxes.
Liquid compounds harden around your component to form a strong, durable, and permanent layer of protection.
Gel compounds form a soft and flexible layer of protection. You can also remove them if you need to re-access your components. They are rated IP68 once potted, so they seal out water even if submersed.

Ready-to-Use Silicone Potting Compounds
No mixing required—these potting compounds come ready to apply. 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, 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) compounds because they don’t need heat or UV light to cure.

Light-Activated Silicone Potting Compounds
These compounds dry quickly when exposed to UV light allowing you to handle the potted items sooner. Made of silicone, 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.

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.
Cartridge potting compound requires a gun and mixer nozzle (each sold separately) to dispense.

Heavy Duty Coatings for Electronics
Thinner than 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).
