Metal sealant is utilized for sealing and enhancing the integrity of metal surfaces and joints.
Designed to improve airtightness, watertightness, and longevity, metal sealants are formulated from metal powders, glass, epoxy resins, and silicones. These compositions enable the sealants to endure extreme temperatures and pressures while ensuring strong adherence to metal surfaces. Their key characteristics include resistance to heat, pressure, chemicals, abrasion, and maintaining stability over time.
Applications include the production of engines, exhaust systems, heating units, and pressure vessels among other metal components and equipment.
