Default HighPower Silicon?

thanks to those that replyed from the few that responded it would
seem that the silicon would be RF safe at full legal limit

to those that asked if i was concerned with mositure not
specifically no, the silicon will take care of that


nor was I concerned with the silicon by itself causing damage
the non acidic stuff has treated me well.


thanks much

Several things...There are silicones that have a non-acidic curing
process. They take longer to set and stay soft for their life.
That said, unless you have metal that is about the same thickness as
aluminum foil there is no way standard silicone is going to damage it
in 20 years or so. Yes I have been working with GE silicones for, oh
35 years or so.
