For those building, and those flying who may find it useful.
My company has lots of experience testing jet engines and other things in very hot environments.
I finally asked one of my experts what he would recommend for sealing the firewall where I have installed wiring and cables through the stainless steel firewall (using grommets).
Without hesitation, he recommended the following:
Adhesive sealant, DE 333 Red, 10.3 oz Tube, high heat - 600 degree temp. Loctite p/n 59675, super flex high temp, mil spec A-46106.
Don't use on aluminum as it will corrode aluminum over time. Fine to use on stainless steel.
Might find it at the local auto parts store or good hardware store.
Not to be used in place of pass through grommets or a bulkhead connector. Will hold up long after wiring might have melted.
