RE: Silcon Sealant
How many types of silicon rubber are there for water radiator gasket use in vehicle?
Best Regards
RE: Silcon Sealant
Group 1 are the ones that work properly
Group 3 are the ones that don't work at all
Group 2 are the ones that are between Groups 1 and 3.
You will probably end up using Group 2

Since this is the "Automotive engineering - other topics" forum, I assume that you're using it on an engine and that engine may be gasoline (?)
If so, it's important to only use silicone sealing materials that are specifically intended for engines as any free silicone that manages to get into the oil or fuel systems can initiate a degradation or even failure of the HEGO.
