HI-TAK®Polyurethane Conductive GasketHI-TAK® Polyurethane Conductive Gasket
Pre-cured polyurethane antenna gasket with aluminum carrier die cut to fit antenna. Designed for use as an environmental sealant. The flexible nature of this system provides for easy access for inspection or repair long after the original application. System demonstrates excellent cohesion after installation, and provides a high degree of environmental protection, while still allowing for easy removal and antenna bonding.
Part of the TotalSeal™Antenna SolutionHI-TAK® Polyurethane Conductive Gasket seals antenna-aircraft interface
HI-TAK Tape® StretchSeal™ polyurethane wrap for coaxial connector sealing
SelfLeveling Green™ polyurethane sealant at connector-antenna interface
Feature Benefit
Antenna to structure sealing over the entire surface area
Corrosion prevention, improved avionics reliability, antenna repair/scrap cost avoidance, structural repair cost avoidance, diversion/cancellation/delay cost avoidance
Reduction in antenna removal/replace cycle time
Reduction in: return-to-service time, troubleshooting time, labor cost, hanger time and gate delays
Elimination of antenna perimeter sealants Elimination of cure time and hazardous material
Consistent, easy installation Die cut gaskets assure proper sealing with 100% gasket to surface contact
Polyurethane materialNon-hazardous, no silicone oil residue before, during or after installation or removal, no issues with paint adhesion or prep, no peripheral silicone contamination
Excellent material memory and elasticity
Sealing is maintained during vibration and thermal expansion and contraction
