Attwood Attwood 7200 Quick Cure Polyurethane Sealant

[awatson20]

Is this product just as effective as 3M 5200 for sealing a garboard brass drain fitting? It appears to have the same ingredients. Thanks in advance.

Same question here, this you?

Seems that it is a Wal-Mart label.

Here in California, WalMart is kinda on the same level as K-mart, Target, and other discount stores and generally have less than superior products under their label.

I do shop there but I don't expect to get a long life out of what I buy there.

My Humble Opinion so please do not try to defend the virtues of the above mentioned stores

Actually, $9.97. But then, that's why baggers in an Albertson's in LA make $15/hr...

The short answer is YES. I have used it and I really do not think it is as tough as 5200 but for a garboard plug you will be fine. The atwood stuff is fast set and fast cure.

FYI Attwood is NOT a Walmart label. Attwood is a major supplier of quality marine products. Their 7200 poly-sulfide sealant is on par with 3M 5200.

I would suggest contacting Attwood to see if they can provide the performance data for their sealant.

From 3m.com on their 5200 sealant:

I used their 7200 and it worked for me. Locally we don't have a west marine but a huge walmart so I have used a lot of the Attwood products. They work great. Attwood products are sold at walmart but if you think about it a lot of places do not have a marine store but they do have one or two Walmart stores.
So more people than you might think are using the Attwood products.

Seeing as Attwood buys most of their stuff from other manufacturers and has it privately labeled, the 7200 may very well be 3M 5200...

3M is pretty protective of their brand. I doubt they do any private-label. However, there are several industrial adhesive manufacturers that will sell in bulk for private-label.

Agreed. Attwood offers a vast range of perfectly usable Marine products.
