| TRA-BOND 1137 is a sag resistant syntactic-foam formulation developed for aerospace honeycomb, fillet, edge-fill, contour repair, bonding, potting and casting applications where a light-weight, low shrinkage and low expansion material is required. This adhesive is easily mixed and handled at room temperature, and it develops strong, highly reliable bonds to most surfaces -- including metals, glass and glass fabrics, and many plastics. TRA-BOND 1137 is a completely unicellular material composed of micron-sized phenolic spheres in a high-performance epoxy binder, has a very uniform point-to-point structure and exhibits low shrinkage during cure, good dimensional stability, low density, high strength-to-weight ratio, high dielectric strength, and a low dielectric constant. The fully cured adhesive is a strong, light weight and durable electrical insulator which can be cut, drilled sawed and shaped (as needed) with ordinary shop tools. In addition, TRA-BOND 1137 is resistant to water, weather, gases and vapors, salt and salt solutions, mild acids and alkalis, alcohol, jet fuels, gasoline and other petroleum products, and many other organic and inorganic compounds.
