UMI-82180 - Permatex Black RTV Sealant, Non-Acetic - 3.3 oz Tube, Black DX Engineering Approved RTV
Sealant
By Permatex
We have all used RTV to seal water out of things, right? Have you ever sealed a piece of electronic gear with it -- then opened it
some time later to find that it had still managed to become corroded inside? Guess what? It's not the rain that corroded
it - It's the RTV! Normal RTV gives off acetic acid when it cures. That's the vinegar smell. The acetic acid causes the
corrosion.
DX Engineering has located a Neutral Cure RTV made right here in Ohio that is non-corrosive and is safe for sealing
those baluns and other electronic gear that are going to be out in the weather.
Applies just like "normal" RTV, dries in one hour and cures in 24 hours at 70 degrees F. And it doesn't smell like vinegar!
