Hi all,
I need to pass a signal through an aluminum block and have a really tight seal. I need to withstand about 5000PSI and maintain a seal.
Is it possible to use a metal gap filling adhesive along with a sparkplug to do this? I was thinking of machining the same thread and applying a strong adhesive.
Does anyone know how much pressure a spark plug is designed to withstand?
Besides this, I am only worried about the tempco of expansion, since this may break the seal. I am only working with a 25degree delta though, so it may be insignificant.
