Bob, I'll have to check when I go out to my hangar. I do recall it is made by 3M and specifically for gluing rubber window sealing material to a frame. Its a thick orange/yellow glue that sticks like the devil and dries quickly. I use it to glue the rubber seal to my fiberglass plenum and its worked for over 3 years with no problem.

Bill, I am using a rubber strip glued to the end of fiberglass duct. It
seals well at static and I have some reinforcing layers of fiberglass around
the end next to the core to stiffen it a bit. Now at 200 MPH I may get some
blow-by, but at that speed, I probably have excess cooling air.

Hi Ed,
What kind of glue did you use?
I have been told that shoe goo is wonderful stuff and will stick to
anything. Well, it doesn't stick to silicone baffle material very well
at all! I used rubber cement, and it works much better, but I'm not
sure it will hold up to repeated installations. You may be using a
different material for the seal, but I thought I would ask.
Thanks,
Bob W.
