Durabond & Resbond

Stainless-steel-loaded high-temperature putties rated beyond 1100 °C. Bond, seal, protect and repair in the most extreme thermal environments — furnaces, boilers, kilns, heaters, exhaust systems and thermocouples.

Durabond and Resbond high-temperature putties

What they are

Durabond and Resbond are stainless-steel-filled, high-temperature ceramic adhesive putties. They combine the bonding strength of a filled putty with the thermal stability of a ceramic — enabling permanent joints, seals and rebuilds in environments where conventional adhesives, gaskets and sealants fail.

The family covers bonding, sealing, potting, insulating and rebuilding tasks across continuous service beyond 1100 °C. Cures at room temperature with a heat post-cure schedule for maximum properties.

Where they work

  • Furnaces, kilns and ovens
  • Industrial and domestic boilers
  • Heaters, heat exchangers and thermocouples
  • Exhaust systems and ducting
  • Refractory repairs and anchors
  • Instrumentation in high-heat zones
  • Gasketing flanges above 500 °C

Four functions, one family

Bonds

Joins metals, ceramics, refractories and glass — permanently, with no creep at high heat.

Seals

Gas-tight seals on hot flanges, ducting, inspection doors and thermocouple entries.

Protects

Forms a hard ceramic skin that protects substrates from oxidation and thermal shock.

Repairs

Rebuilds refractory lining, cracks in furnace shells, and damaged hot-zone components.
