Some thoughts on sealants
Some thoughts on sealants. Sealants are primarily silicone, polysulfide,
polyurethane and blends of them. Add to that butyl rubber.
First, as a rule, I like butyl for any hardware that has the potential to
flex or move. Chainplates fit that criteria.
My default sealant for most everything

Hi John Had similar issues on my 34. Silicone, 4200 and similar all
failed as did not adhere well to the stainless chain plates as they move a
lot as rig tensions. Only thing that has worked is butyl. Going on 10
years and no leaks. Not sure what benefits the stainless pin provides as is
not

I second the sealing with butyl. Do NOT use silicone or 4200. The epoxy idea

Well…
I’ll add my experience. First, I do use butyl as much as possible, but found
chainplates a difficult application. The main problem we’re the cover plates
are welded to the chainplate. This makes it difficult to get a significant
amount of butyl in place still allowing the mounting bolts

Hi John,
I resealed the chainplates on my 30 MK I about five years ago with advice from
Dennis Cheuvront here on the list. I removed the chainplates (there’s only one
per side on a 30 MK I) and dug out maybe a half-inch of wet / rotted balsa core
around the cutouts between the fiberglass
John,
Many would suggest 3M 4200, but silicone has issues. I swear by butyl tape (it
never hardens out completely and it is very flexible). The best source is Maine

still sells this stuff (he had a bad hard attack last
