3M Flexible Potting and Encapsulating Compound, 200g Package size, 56 Shore D Hardness - Resin bag Scotchcast 40 230 g

This flexible potting and encapsulating compound is designed for electrical insulation and mechanical protection. Delivered as a 200g liquid resin, it is suitable for use in both indoor and outdoor applications, including underground and submerged environments. The resin cures at room temperature, offering dependable long-term performance for electrical joints and cables.

Features & Benefits

• Low viscosity ensures easy application and excellent flow

• Hydrophobic behaviour enhances moisture resistance

• High-temperature performance up to +110°C for durability

• Impact and corrosion resistance protect electrical joints

• Excellent adhesion to metals and various plastics

• Effective dielectric encapsulation for electrical safety

Applications

• Ideal for potting low voltage electrical joints

• Used for encapsulating components in harsh environments

• Applies in automation and control systems for protection

• Suitable for electrical and mechanical industry requirements

• Designed for both two-component and standard mixing systems

What is the mixing ratio for the two components?

The two components should be mixed in a ratio of 100 parts by weight of Part A to 46 parts of Part B to achieve optimal performance.

How does this product perform in extreme temperatures?

It maintains functionality between -40°C and +110°C, making it ideal for applications subjected to temperature fluctuations.

What is the pot life remaining at different temperatures?

At 5°C, the pot life is approximately 35 minutes; at 23°C it is about 18 minutes; and at 40°C, the pot life is reduced to around 9 minutes.

Is this product safe for long-term electrical insulation?

Yes, it exhibits a high volume resistivity and dielectric strength, ensuring it remains effective for long-term electrical insulation.
