What Are Aircraft Jointing Compounds?
In the aviation industry, a jointing compound is a heavy-duty, multipurpose sealant that can be applied to joints between different metals. Examples would be aluminium and steel, or magnesium and titanium. Jointing compounds can also be used on metals contacting other materials like rubber, wood, concrete, and epoxy. They are formulated to prevent moisture ingress and have strong resistance to chemicals, extreme temperatures, and pressure fluctuations. Many jointing compounds also have excellent sealing and corrosion inhibition properties, giving them many practical uses from aeroplanes to ships.High-Level Protection
Versatile jointing compounds are available in the formulas and quantities that are right for your organisation. You will find jointing compounds in cans, squeeze tubes, caulking cartridges and other forms. Some compounds are made for long-term use while others function as temporary sealants. We also have jointing pastes and putties that you can spread with a paintbrush or roller.
