This 3 oz. tube of Dow Corning 730 Solvent Resistant Sealant is a ready-to-use, solventless, nonslumping fluorosilicone rubber paste that reacts with moisture in the air to form a tough, rubbery solid. Ideally suited for use in many applications where resistance to fumes, splash, and sometimes even total immersion in fuels, oils and solvents is needed. Need more? We also offer 5.75 oz. tubes of Dow Corning 730 Solvent Resistant Sealant. Dow Corning 730 Solvent Resistant Sealant is not recommended:
For continuous underwater immersion where adhesion or
structural bonding is required
On concrete, brick, mortar or other masonry surfaces
On surfaces to be painted; paints do not adhere well to sealant (paint before applying sealant)
On materials such as impregnated woods or oil-based caulks that bleed oils
In totally confined areas; atmospheric moisture is required for cure on Teflon1-coated materials,
polyethylene, polypropylene or methylmethacrylate Plexiglas2); sealant will not adhere well
On or near sensitive metals such as copper, brass, zinc, carbon steel, galvanized iron or magnesium; these
metals may be corroded, especially in confined cure conditions, due to the acetic acid released during the
cure
With solvents such as acetone or ketonesOverall Rating for Dow Corning 730 Solvent Resistant Sealant - 3 oz. | (based on 1 review) |  |

FeaturesDow Corning 730 Solvent Resistant Sealant is used primarily for bonding, sealing and caulking applications
where resistance to the swelling effects of fuels, oils and solvents is needed. It can be used for assembling and/or repairing the fuel lines and tanks of cars, small engines, aircraft and rockets. Other potential applications
include:
Sealing seams on various liquid storage tanks
Sealing aerospace and automotive fuel lines and tanks
Providing temporary patch for rubber linings exposed to corrosive conditions
Sealing pipe joints on lines carrying corrosive chemicals and solvents
Providing formed-in-place gaskets for sealing chemical compressors
Providing formed-in-place gaskets where irregular shapes and harsh conditions reject ordinary seals
Bonding or sealing components exposed to moisture, vibration, shock, certain fuels, oils and solvents for
long periods of time
Providing formed-in-place gaskets for sealing insulators and entrance ports on fluid-filled distribution

Hazmat Item Details
If the item that you are trying to ship is deemed Hazmat you may have an additional fee added to your order when you check out. Items are deemed Hazmat as per the Section 14 Transport Information located in the item's Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). Sorry, but things that can go "boom" are hard to ship and we have to pass on our fees.
Flammable or explosive items such as Fire Extinguishers, MEK, Toluene, Paint Thinner, etc. are subject to a $25.00 Hazmat fee via ground shipping methods. However, the majority of Hazmat items have no fee when shipping with a ground method.
Most Hazardous Goods are subject to air and international transport fees. This fee is $40 for domestic air shipping methods and $80 for international shipping methods.
