Aviation
Use Case: Aerobeeswax is used to temporarily secure gaskets and seals during engine, hydraulic system, and airframe maintenance. It allows technicians to precisely place seals during reassembly without slippage, especially in awkward or overhead positions. Ideal for line maintenance and deep maintenance checks where quick and reliable reinstallation is critical.
Why: In aviation, even a minor fluid leak due to a misaligned gasket can ground an aircraft (AOG – Aircraft on Ground), resulting in costly delays and unscheduled maintenance. Pure beeswax is cited in FAA Advisory Circulars as a non-corrosive, non-conductive, and residue-free temporary adhesive. By ensuring proper seal alignment and preventing seal dropout, Aerobeeswax helps reduce rework, fluid leaks, and the risk of in-flight shutdowns caused by installation errors.
Military/Defence
Use Case: In field maintenance and workshops, Aerobeeswax is used for temporary positioning of seals in armoured vehicles, mobile power units, and HVAC systems under battlefield or mobile base conditions.
Why: It requires no curing time and performs reliably in extreme temperatures, dust, and vibration. It supports rapid deployment of maintenance teams who need reliable, safe, and clean options to install critical components with minimal error.
Medical Equipment Manufacturing
Use Case: Helps secure seals in modular medical device housings or during enclosure fitment in cleanroom environments.
Why: Aerobeeswax is non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and residue-free, ideal for clean environments. It does not emit harmful vapors or residues that could compromise sterility.
Space Systems
Use Case: Used during satellite assembly, launch integration, and sealed chamber setups in ground facilities.
Why: Beeswax meets NASA’s low outgassing standards (ASTM E595), making it suitable for space components where contamination control is essential. It can be used in test fixtures, seal testing, and prototyping.
