Tough-Seal is a superior family of KEY sealants for potting electrical and electronic components that provides a reliable grip and exceptional encapsulating protection for any potting application where premium thermal cycling performance, excellent thermal shock resistance, and outstanding environmental and corrosion protection are a must.

Eight Formulations

Which Tough-Seal is Right For You?

Tough-Seal is a superior family of KEY sealants available in four standard formulations to fit a variety of potting applications. While all Tough-Seal formulations are durable hybrid epoxy elastomers that grip and protect under the most aggressive conditions, they are available in a combination of properties that vary in hardness, gel-time, working time, and flow.

Tough-Seal vs. Other Potting Compounds

Tough-Seal is a RoHS Compliant, easy-to-mix, two component durable hybrid epoxy elastomer that offers a unique combination of KEY properties not commonly found in just one potting compound. It offers the heat resistance of an epoxy, the flexibility of a urethane and the durable encapsulating protection of a silicone. ToughSeal is not a urethane, so it is isocyanate-free and it is not moisture sensitive.

With exceptional flexibility at temperatures as low as -103°F (-75°C) and high temperature resistance up to 302°F (150°C). Tough-Seal grips in the cold, when other potting compounds contract, and maintains a tough seal in the heat, when other potting compounds wilt. Tough-Seal does not crack, so electronic components remain protected from moisture. When exposed to moisture, Tough-Seal also offers Anti-Microbial protection. Tough-Seal does not support fungal growth and meets the requirements of MIL-STD-810G Method 508.6.

With very low exotherm in large volume pours, extremely low shrinkage, and little to no expansion or contraction with temperature changes, ToughSeal is gentler on sensitive circuitry, than hard epoxies, delivering low embedment stress upon cure and during thermal cycling.

Tough-Seal provides durable encapsulating protection that guards electrical components from exposure to the harmful effects of the environment better than typical epoxies, urethanes and silicones.
