Many materials can be used to protect strain gage installations. Perhaps none is more versatile for short-term applications than room-temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone rubber. Available as an easy-to-apply single-component coating with uncured consistencies ranging from a low-viscosity brush-on material for thin coats, to a medium viscosity self-levelling form for use on level surfaces, to a high-viscosity no-run paste for vertical and overhead applications
