Injectable Sealants
SelfLeveling Green™, TufStuff™, Thixoflex™ Orange and Thixoflex™ Gray are Av-DEC’S injectable sealants that provide for easy access for repair long after the original application of the product. SelfLeveling Green™ and TufStuff™ are two component polyurethane materials designed for use as sealants whereas Thixoflex™ orange and gray are two component urethane materials designed as sealants.
The injectable materials provide a high level of tack to most substrates that provide a moisture barrier, corrosion protection, and improved reliability, repair and scrap. Easy installation of the products is capable due to the low viscosity and cohesive properties of the product that assure proper sealing with 100% surface contact. Easy removal is also a key feature of these Av-DEC products, which leads to a reduction in return-to-service time, troubleshooting time, labor cost and the amount of time aircraft must remain in the hanger for maintenance.
Along with the tapes and gaskets, there is no residue left behind after removal of the product which eliminates the need for solvents, and scraping as well as issues associated with paint adhesion. Traditionally, moisture-retaining products were needed around connectors, but with Av-DEC products that need is eliminated creating a positive moisture barrier and easy removal from the connector.
SelfLeveling Green
Av-DEC’s two component polyurethane material is designed for use as a watertight, flexible sealant. The low viscosity allows for easy application where self-leveling is desired. The system demonstrates excellent adhesion to itself and allows for easy removal when necessary. This product is commonly used at the antenna connector base, in seat tracks, and wet areas; under lavs, galleys and cargo bays, in electrical connector backshells, on nutplates and to fill in gaps and voids.

Thixoflex Orange & Thixoflex Gray
Av-DEC’s two component urethane material is designed for use as a watertight, thixotropic, flexible sealant. The flexible nature of this system provides for easy access for repair long after the original application. The thixotropic properties of the sealant allow it to be used on vertical or overhead applications without dripping or sagging. The system demonstrates excellent adhesion to itself for repair, and provides a high degree of environmental protection with maximum sealing. Common uses are in filling gaps and voids, recessed screw heads and vertical/overhead applications. More Info
TufStuff
Av-DEC’s two component polyurethane material is designed for use as a weather-tight, self-leveling, rigid sealant. The rigid nature of this system provides potential abrasion resistance where minor traffic is expected (i.e. cargo bay tie down areas). The system demonstrates excellent adhesion to itself after repair or inspection and provides a high degree of environmental protection with maximum sealing. The common uses are in the cargo bay tie down areas and behind chemical toilet areas to cover SelfLeveling Green. More Info
