I did a little searching around, and can’t find the exact answer I’m looking for in already existing threads, so I figured I’d just ask y’all. I’m building a 4” LOC Phoenix for my L1 certification and I just put the motor mount tube in it last night. I just switched from BSI 30 minute epoxy to West Systems G Flex thinking the West Systems stuff was better. But now that the stuff is dry, after it’s pretty much too late to do much about it, I had the thought to look and see what information I could find on it’s heat resistance. West Systems’ site says that it can handle temperatures up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit repeatedly, and that seems a bit low to me. I used it for the centering ring to MMT bond as well as the centering ring to body tube bond. I’m just wondering if anyone with more experience than me could contribute their thoughts on whether or not it will hold up with the heat from the motor casing. Thanks!
