SS-108 Product Description

Download PDF

SS-108 is a fast curing, high strength, acetoxy silicone RTV adhesive rubber engineered for applications requiring fast development of physical properties and excellent adhesion.  SS-108 is a 1-Part silicone that when applied to the substrate allows handling of the bonded assembly within minutes.  SS-108 works well in manual and automatic dispensing equipment.

Method Of Application

Dispense sealant onto part and mate parts. Do not squeeze all of the product out of flange assembly. Allow to cure.

Heat Accelerated Curing
Typical utilization involves dispensing in open air and ambient humidity to result in a high strength adhesive rubber. However, cure speed can be accelerated with hot air to nearly instant cures exhibiting very fast adhesion. A one minute hot air stream exposure, followed by a one minute cool down in a humid environment, results in cured elastomer exhibiting outstanding adhesion.

Packaging
SS-108 is available in 10.3 oz. cartridges, 40 lb. pails and 400 lb. drums. This product is also available in customer defined packaging sizes upon request.

Chemical cure system
Acetoxy cure system

Solids
98% solids, contains no solvents

Service Temperature

-45 to 260C

Adhesion
Primerless adhesion to silicone rubber parts.

Limitations
Allow sealant to fully cure before putting assembly into service. Ensure enough product remains between flanges to be effective in an assembly.

Handling and safety
For maximum shelf life, keep containers sealed when not in use. Keep out of the reach of children. Uncured sealant irritates eyes and skin. Refer to MSDS.

Shelf-life
Sealed containers are guaranteed for 1 year from the ship date when stored in a cool dry area below 70 F.
