most likely.

Here is what is in my specifications as manufacturers to check out:

1) Benjamin-Foster (BF)
2) Chicago Mastic (CM)
3) Insul-Coustic (IC)
4) 3M
5) St. Clair Rubber (SCR)
6) Vimasco (V)
7) Baldwin-Ehret-Hill (BEH)
8) H.K. Porter (HKP)

    At the ends of every fiberglass covering on the steam mains there is a white caulking material which seals the ends. What is this stuff?

    Check this link for picture dscn1947 to see the stuff. It was used very recently as all the steam pipes were replaced in the past 4 or 5 years and insulated.

    They look similar

    to the Insul-Coustic material (which remains pliable). Comes in caulking gun cartridges and plastic buckets. Sticks to everything....Most of the other cements dry with a flat finish, such as PorterLag.
