LLoyd -

I was told by Vern Pifer that Lancair was the only Hysol customer that bought 9339. The price for Loctite's formulating and producing the relatively small quantities rose to a point that a lower cost substitute was clearly warranted. People were beginning to complain a lot about the price of 9339 vs. the price of the Hysol (different formulation entirely) that Spruce and others were selling. Lancair concluded that 9360 was a very close substitute, but the pot life was less. Knowing this, we had to work a lot faster bonding on our top on a hot August day than we did on the wings. The 9360 also has a better peel strength/resistance.

Tim Ong: I hope I stated this correctly. Please weigh in if I didn't.

Cheers,
