Tank sealant ratio needed

Jeff Vaughan

Well Known Member
I need to mix up a very small amount of PPG B2
My container does not have the ratio of part A to Part B
Anyone out there know what it is?
 
P/S 890 Class B is an aircraft integral fuel tank sealant. It has a service temperature range from - 65?F (-54?C) to 250?F (121?C), with intermittent excursions up to 275?F (135?C). This material is designed for fillet sealing of fuel tanks and other air- craft fuselage sealing applications. The cured sealant maintains excellent elastomeric properties after pro- longed exposure to both jet fuel and aviation gas.
P/S 890 Class B is a two-part, manganese dioxide cured polysulfide compound. The uncured material is a low sag, thixotropic paste suitable for application by extrusion gun or spatula. It cures at room tempera- ture to form a resilient sealant having excellent adhe- sion to common aircraft substrates.
The following tests are in accordance with AMS-S- 8802 Class B specification test methods.
