Industrial Grade 100%

Silicone Sealants

Available in Clear, Black, White, Aluminum,

Beige and Bronze

Sila-Seal Industrial Grade Silicone Sealants are non-slumping, one-part silicone rubber acetoxy sealants that cure to a tough, rubbery solid upon exposure to moisture in the air.  Sila-Seal Industrial Grade Silicone Sealants are primarily used as general purpose sealing and bonding agents, as space-filling rubber adhesives, or formed-in-place gaskets. Sila-Seal Industrial Grade Silicone Sealants adhere to clean metal, glass, most types of non-oily woods, silicone resin, vulcanized silicone rubber, ceramic, natural and synthetic fiber and many painted and plastic surfaces. Fully cured, the RTV can be used for extended periods at temperatures up to 350ºF and for shorter periods as high as 400ºF.

SILA-SEAL INDUSTRIAL GRADE

SILICONE SEALANTS

Sila-Seal, Inc.

5167 East 65th Street

Indianapolis, IN 46220

(800) 968-4131

For all general industrial sealing and bonding applications.  Recommended for use in the HVAC, refrigeration, plumbing and construction industries, as well as all commercial, industrial, and residential applications.

PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

Sila-Seal Industrial Grade Silicone Sealants are resistant to sunlight, rain, sleet, snow, ultraviolet radiation, ozone and temperature extremes.  Sila-Seal Industrial Grade Silicone Sealants retain design properties even after years of exposure – seals remain watertight and weatherproof. Sila-Seal Industrial Grade Silicone Sealants have a wide temperature range from -76 to 350°F with intermittent temperatures up to 400°F.

LIMITATIONS:

Sila-Seal Industrial Grade Silicone Sealants are not recommended for use in applications involving:

•  Structural silicone glazing

•  Joints where physical abuse or abrasion is likely to be encountered

•  Prolonged water immersion

•  Porous surfaces, such as masonry

•  Building materials that might bleed oils, plasticizers or solvents – materials such as impregnated wood, oil-based caulks, green or partially vulcanized rubber gaskets or tapes

•  Totally confined spaces, because the sealant requires atmospheric moisture for cure

•  Surfaces sensitive to corrosion by acetic acid vapors (a byproduct of sealant cure)

•  Surfaces that will be painted (paint will not stretch with the extensions of the sealant and may crack and peel); complete all painting prior to using sealant

•  Bonding to secondary seal of insulating glass units sealed with two-part silicone sealants

Sila-Seal Industrial Grade Silicone Sealants are neither tested nor represented as suitable for medical or pharmaceutical uses
