Magnobond 3265, Parts A & B

DESCRIPTION

Compound 3265 is an epoxy resin casting and potting compound. It is designed to protect electrical devices from extremes in humidity and temperatures. The convenient 1:1 by volume mix ratio makes this product an excellent choice for automatic production. It's low shrinkage eliminates excessive stress on the encapsulated unit.
