From one of my fav companies. Aremco brings you a way to glue surface mount pieces together if your soldering sucks. Or bond something in place, like glueing a trailer light pod to the frame and complete the electrical circuit.

Aremco-Bond(TM) 556-LV is an advanced, two-part, low viscosity conductive adhesive formulated using high purity silver flake. This system exhibits a volume resistivity of less than 0.0008 ohm-cm at room temperature, and a thermal conductivity of 2.2 W/m-°K. The continuous operating temperature range is 340°F (141°C) and intermittent use temperature is 375°F (190°C). The tensile shear strength is 1,100 psi and Shore D hardness is 84. Viscosity range is 4,000 to 6,000 cP.

Aremco-Bond(TM) 556-LV mixes easily in a 100-to-4 ratio by weight. It sets at room temperature in 24 hours or can be heat cured in 2 hours at 200°F. It comes in standard 50-gram kits but can be specially packaged in divided bi-packs or pre-mixed and frozen syringes upon request.

Typical applications for Aremco-Bond(TM) 556-LV include microelectronic chip bonding, semiconductor dieattach, hybrid packaging, and other electrical and electronic components used in connectors, lighting and sensor components.

Those are some impressive specs! Might have to give it a try with some non-important stuff first :)

Their stuff isn't cheap. 8 o.z. of Pyro Putty was $35.

I would expect it to run $$$ with all that silver in there. If you look at the spec sheet, there are other offerings, on them is evene named "Economical" :rolllaugh:
