sounds good but someone better ask Parker what their preference is for o-rings
in marine applications. They may have something that will work just as well and
then you wouldn't have to chase all those sheep! That
said, there are marine stick-'ems that don't set up. RTV isn't one of them.
Surely there is something that will bond correctly and still let you pry it
apart down the road. Vance -----Original Message----- Quoted from Wikipedia...Lanolin is used commercially in many industrial products ranging fromrust-proof coatings to lubricants. Some sailors use lanolin to create aslippery surface on their propellers and stern gear to which barnaclescannot adhere. The water-repellent properties make it valuable as alubricant grease where corrosion would otherwise be a problem.Lanolin (German, from Latin lāna, "wool", and oleum, "oil") also calledAdeps Lanae, wool wax or wool grease, is a yellow waxy substance secreted bythe sebaceous glands of wool-bearing animals. Most lanolin used by humanscomes from domestic sheep. Lanolin is also frequently, but incorrectly,referred to as ‘Wool Fat’ by many of the world’s pharmacopoeia even thoughit has been known for more than 150 years that lanolin is devoid ofglycerides and is in fact a wax, not a fat.[1][2] Lanolin's waterproofingproperty aids sheep in shedding water from their coats. Certain breeds ofsheep produce large amounts of lanolin, and the extraction can be performedby squeezing the sheep's harvested wool between rollers. Most or all of thelanolin is removed from wool when it is processed into textiles, such asyarn or felt.Lanolin’s role in nature is to protect wool and skin against the ravages ofclimate and the environment – it also seems to play a role in integumentalhygiene] It is therefore not surprising that lanolin and its manyderivatives are used extensively in products designed for the protection,treatment and beautification of human skin.-----Original Message-----From: owner-personal_submersibles@psubs.org[mailto:owner-personal_submersibles@psubs.org] On Behalf Of Stewart GardinerSent: Tuesday, 14 September 2010 2:05 PMTo: personal_submersibles@psubs.orgSubject: RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] need gooLanoline is used a lot for marine grease/lube... not sure if it will be goeyenough for you... but it has the consistency of paste or cream almost... -----Original Message-----From: owner-personal_submersibles@psubs.org[mailto:owner-personal_submersibles@psubs.org] On Behalf Of Brian CoxSent: Tuesday, 14 September 2010 12:49 PMTo: Personal_Submersibles@Psubs. OrgSubject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] need gooStarting to get moving again on my sub, I've been applying epoxy and makingprogress. I'm thinking about putting my two halves together, I'm going tolay down a strip of silicone on one half 4" wide 1/4" thick and approx 40'total linear feet. I'm thinking I should have some sort of goo, likeVaseline, to get a good seal where the top meets the bottom silicone. Iguess I could probably just use some sort of grease but was just wonderingif there is a preferred marine "Vaseline" . Something with a reasonableprice. Is ther such a thing?Brian************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************The personal submersibles mailing list complies with the US Federal CAN-SPAMAct of 2003.
