Hi  

   

I am just about ready to rivet in the center recess of the firewall. I am wonder what the best product would be to seal this in as well as perhaps some of the other firewall penetrations. I am planning to use stainless eyeball penetrations from ACS as well as a SAFEAIR1 firesleeve penetration for wiring. From what I have read fuel tank sealant is good to 400c while wind blown avgas burns at 2,000c.   

   

What is the current list thinking on this subject?  

   

Cheers

Les... personally, i am glad i have 3M's Firewall Barrier. It sticks 

much like proseal to me. It's much easier to use - just use a caulk gun.



The only negative is that it's silicone based, so I only intend to use 

it where i never intend to apply paint.
