High Temperature Fiber-Optic Sealant FO-380 Now Available

Fiber-Bond FO-380, a new high temperature sealant developed by Aremco Products, Inc., is now used to seal fiber optic strands into stainless steel and ceramic ferrules for applications to 716 °F (380 °C).

Fiber-Bond FO-380 is a single part, water-dispersed, ceramic-silicone sealant that penetrates small gaps between fiber optic strands and provides exceptional adhesion to stainless steel and ceramic ferrules used to support fiber optic bundles for high temperature applications to 716 °F (380 °C).

This sealer demonstrates excellent moisture resistance and dielectric properties across the operating temperature range.

Fiber-Bond FO-380 is formulated with a viscosity of 60 cP and solids content of 21.0% by weight. It is applied easily by brush, dipping or spraying, and sets at room temperature, and cures fully in 45 minutes at 450 °F (230 °C). Cleanup is accomplished easily with warm water and soap
