SS-36 Product Description
Download PDF
SS-36 is a fast curing silicone RTV adhesive rubber developed for wet bonding
applications. SS-36 is a 1 part silicone adhesive that when applied to wet
or dry substrates allows handling of the bonded assembly within an hour. When
cured, the elastomer resists weathering, ozone, moisture, UV and high temperatures.
SS-36 works well in manual and automatic dispensing equipment.

Method of Application
Dispense sealant onto part. Mate parts, ensuring not all of the product is
squeezed out of flange assembly. Allow to cure.
Chemical cure system
Oxime cure system
Curing
Cure speed can be accelerated with heat and increased humidity to very rapid
cures exhibiting surprisingly fast adhesion. Typical utilization involves
dispensing in open air and after exposure to ambient humidity, a room temperature
cured elastomer with high adhesive properties is formed.
Packaging
SS-36 is available in 10.3 oz. cartridges and 50 lb. pails. This product is
also available in customer defined packaging sizes upon request.
Solids
98% solids
Adhesion
Primerless adhesion to most plastics, metals and typical substrates.
Service temperature
-65 to 200 C continuous
Limitations
Allow to fully cure before putting assembly into service. Ensure enough product
remains between parts to be effective in an adhesive 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.
