Best metal filler epoxy for stainless steel?

Q. We are looking for the best metal filler epoxy resin for bonding to stainless steel. The setup would result in a low permeation composite used for fuel tanks. Resin when cured must have excellent resistance to fuel and chemicals. If anyone has any advice or knows where to start looking for this material please post or e-mail.

Thanks.

All products can be machined.

A. McMaster-Carr lists a number of metal-filled epoxies. They ship overnight. Just as good a place to start as any.

Good luck from PlaterB
