SCOPE 1.1 Form This specification covers five classes of a fuel-resistant polysulfide (T) sealing compound supplied as a two-component system. 1.2 Application This se

6、aling compound has been used typically for fuel tank sealing, cabin pressure sealing, and aerodynamic smoothing, but usage is not limited to such applications. It can be used for faying surface sealing, wet-installation of fasteners, overcoating fasteners, sealing joints and seams, and nonstructural

7、 adhesive bonding. This room-temperature curing sealing compound can be used in fuel areas as well as nonfuel areas. Curing of this material can be accelerated at higher temperatures. This material is usable from -65 to 250 F (-54 to 121 C), with short-term exposure (approximately six hours) to 360

8、F (182 C). 1.2.1 Notation AMS3100 adhesion promoter should be applied prior to the sealant. 1.3 Classification Sealing compounds covered by this specification are classified as follows: Class A - Suitable for application by brush.
