Thinking I might even be able to restore my old mounts that are missing the rubber where I place the cleaned metal on the mold and cover to adhere thoroughly. Any thoughts?

I`ve done this with soft(shore A stiffness =37) poliutherane called SIKA 11 FC. Only difference is that i did not fill mount completely, I left little bit od empty spaces on the end of mount in order to achieve low vibration and allow bit of engine movement. Everything is perfect, engine movement exists but is it is much smaller and no vibration at all. Try this way and you will be very satisfied!!!!

With the 3m window weld, it’s a moisture activated hardener in it. I generally recommend to fill your mounts up halfway with the window weld, throw it into a bucket of water overnight to harden, then fill the 2nd half up, and throw back into the bucket overnight again so there aren’t any soft spots hidden inside that squish out when you go to install them and put force on the mounts. Just did this with my 12v Cummins and doing my first startup today in the rebuild to see how it goes!

Keep in mind that these polyurethane caulks/sealants/adhesives are ONE PART MOISTURE CURING polyurethanes. If you cast them too deep they won't cure properly. On non porous surfaces you should add a very fine mist of water. Some products can also foam or have voids, so beware. TWO PART polyurethanes will cure no matter what the thickness is.
@JeffLReeb Жыл бұрын
Could you give more insight on the depth that is acceptable for casting? I have rear diff mounts that cannot be removed easily so the one part poly is a good application for me. Do you water mist the poly after applying it? I would think the water would evaporate rather quickly. Does applying heat (180F) enable better curing?

I did this recently but ended up going with 80a liquid casting/molding urethane from McMaster Carr, ~$35 with shipping I believe. Filled a total of four mounts. They also sell it in higher and lower durometer for different applications. Much less viscous than the windo-weld, it fills every nook and cranny and cures perfectly flat. It's between the consistency of maple syrup and honey for about an hour at room temp until it sets. Takes either 24 hours at 180F or a week at 70F to fully dry/cure which is the major disadvantage. I stuck mine on a baking sheet perched on top of some furnace piping (maybe 100-110F) and they felt fully cured within 48 hours.

I did this to one of my diesel MBs because those motor mounts are notorious for collapsing shortly after install. It was awful. 😭 I used a shore 30 Loctite poly because I wanted it to be soft to prevent transmitting a lot of vibration, but to be just firm enough to help the mount maintain its shape. It vibrated like an absolute nightmare. Cold starts would shake the entire car visibly from outside and when hot the AC compressor being spun vibrated it just as much. It drove ok once you were in gear and moving with higher engine rpm, but idling was pure misery. I took them out and bought another set of mounts and put them in which eliminated that vibration. That was only shore 30! I almost went with a 50 or 60 and that would have probably rattled the rearview mirror off the windshield. For a daily driver, I will not personally use or make poly motor mounts again in the future. A track car I would, but not a daily.

I find that interesting because I wouldn't say it is that bad with the harder durometer poly that I used. I wonder if it has to do with the design of the mount itself. You can for sure feel some vibrating, but considering this is my daily, I wouldn't say it is unbearable, or even too harsh. I'm content with my mounts now. They're much better than the sloppy stock parts. I wonder how much of a difference there is between i4s, to V6s, to i6s, etc, and the vibrations.
@longlegsescueta23354 жыл бұрын
Of course it will really vibrate a lot considering your using the polyurethane into a diesel engine. Usually a diesel engine has a longer stroke than bore making it provide more torque. More stroke means more torque and more torque means more vibrations. And its more noticeable in diesel engine with lets say 4 cylinders than with more cylinders.
@mannys91304 жыл бұрын
@@longlegsescueta2335 Not entirely correct. Besides, this was an IDI 2.2 liter engine with a redline of 5,000 rpm. It's in the class of "high speed diesels." IDIs are different beasts than DIs; much smoother and much faster revving. Mercedes designed the 2.3L 4 cylinder gas engine with hydraulic motor mounts. They designed the 2.2L diesel with solid rubber mounts. If what you say is 100% correct, Mercedes made a grave error with one of the (seemingly) most basic design elements.

Do you recon it's good for a 20 year old car? Defo not a daily but sure would give a longer life as it's dry stored at min sure wouldn't hurt right? Might try when it's on the road depending how badly abused they are but thanks keep us updated and would be good to see different grades of polyurethane if there are any

I used Loctite 'Window and Siding' polyurethane sealant instead of the 'Roof and Flashing' version. Main difference I can see is that my stuff is white. Still waiting for it to dry so hopefully it'll work as well.

I have newer more high tech sealer adhesives than those which are not new. May try one with a known cure rate as those are very slow to cure.

I'm not looking for performance, just wanna repair my engine mounts. Preferably for the same comfort before the mounts were broken. Any suggestions for the sealant?

I would use the Loctite polyurethane in that case as it is not aggressive like the 3M one. 👍

Hey Milmast your information is misleading, the hardness of 3M window weld (08609) as per data sheet is 55-60 and not 80

Hows the long term effect? There still holding up. The life span ?

Can use for control arm bushing? It seems 3m durometer test up to 75a..i think enough shore hardness,better than stock only 60a.. it’s correct 3m 75a? Becaus on TDS 3m only 50-60a. Thanks

My engine mount is directly under cat converter (like 10cm below). Since polyurethane isn’t heat resistant, is it gonna catch fire or melt? Thanks

My rear mount is toast and has been on order for 4 months now, dealer thinks manufacturer is changing who they source though, they just keep pushing the date back. Can’t even find a used one. Do you think this could salvage my mount? It’s so bad the flexing has destroyed my exhaust flex pipe.
