You want an instant bond that’s strong, flexible, and reliable? Heat me up, and
I’ll increase your productivity. I’m always ready when you are.
01
USAGE
Hot-Melt
Silicone can be used to bond or seal many common materials (PVC,
aluminum, painted or treated wood, plastics) without the need of a primer.
Typical applications include assembly of water related equipment (water
filters), food appliances (refrigerator), automotive lighting / electronics and
marine vehicles. Design concepts include: model making and rapid
prototyping.
02
AESTHETIC PROPERTIES
Water clear or colored (white, grey, black), Hot-Melt Silicone has a
surface hardness of 45-60 shore and rubber appearance. It is often used to fill
gaps.
03
MATERIAL PERFORMANCE
Hot-Melt
Silicone offers flexibility with instant bonding, long open time &
long term bond strength. When cured, it is stable over a wide temperature range
(-45 to 150°C), provides superior weather resistance (UV, water) and resists
hardening, cracking, crumbling & drying. It offers chemical stability,
electrical insulation properties and low flammability.
04
PROCESSING
Hot-Melt
Silicone is available in cartridges, drums or pails and must be heated
during use. It is best-suited for automated dispensing equipment but can also
be dispensed from a handheld gun.
05
SUSTAINABILITY
Hot-Melt
Silicone is a low VOC, low odor material that is user friendly.
Processing advantages also minimize waste and cleanup.
06
COST
Hot-Melt
Silicone is priced a little higher than other RTV silicones, but
typically reduces total production costs.
