Abstract

A hermetic seal is formed of a compound which is applied with low viscosity to a form located between a center contact and a body of a coaxial connector. The compound is cured without heat or pressure by subjecting it to ultraviolet light. The viscous material completely seals the coaxial connector and when hardened forming an excellent hermetic seal. Apparatus for holding the coaxial connectors vertical to receive the compound is also disclosed.
