    392 degrees Fahrenheit isn't really high-temp?

    I know this is an old thread, but here is the data from the MSDS:
    This product contains methylpolysiloxanes whic
    h can generate formaldehyde at approximately 300
    degrees Fahrenheit (150'C) and above, in atmosphe
    res which contain oxygen. Formaldehyde is a
    skin and respiratory sensitizer, eye and throat irrit
    ant, acute toxicant, and potential cancer hazard. A
    MSDS for formaldehyde is available from Mo
    mentive., Methanol released during curing.

    You might want to look at using another type of sealant.

    Dude, You are a dick! Just admit you don't know the answer and politely bow
    out of the conversation. Talking about shit you may have heard one of your mom's sugar daddies talking about in passing isn't earning you any points with the folks who actually know what they are talking about. Just because you aren't mentally capable doesn't mean others are similarly deficient. Some of
    us actually made it through highschool and *gasp* into college where we
    *double gasp* learned stuff - ya know - like En-gen-eer-ing...

    The max operating temp for GE II is 400F.

    Stay out of the way and let the big boys work!

    Please behave like an adult now. Language. We are all learning from every comment. I have an application where I'd like to make an easy mold of something, so I can reproduce it by pouring molten lead or solder into the mold (mold made of something that
    begins as plastic (soft) and hardens to a rubbery consistency, but can take high heat of molten solder or lead. All of these products look like they might be good candidates and work (or not). I believe solder melting point is 360-370 deg F (180-190C)
    but can be as high as near 600 deg F, depends on the alloy/blend.
    So Mr Ransley, if you would be so kind as to please let me know the exact name of the product to which you are referring, as it looks like a typo in your comment. Did you mean to say "HVAC duct seal mastic ?" Does it have a number in the name or any
    other descriptor ? Please help + be more specific and please take a deep breath, + please do not resort to cavemanish name-calling, when you are frustrated. Oops, now I may have just done the same. Thank you, Greg PS I've noticed, people from Canada
    are really compassionate, polite, and kind-natured, like the better part of ourselves . And this was all meant with humility + respect to everyone.
