Download PDF

SS-5088 is a UV dual cure neutral silicone RTV adhesive rubber developed for UV applications. SS-5088 is a 1-Part silicone that when applied to the substrate allows handling of the bonded assembly within seconds. When cured, the elastomer resists weathering, ozone, moisture, UV and high temperatures. SS-5088 works well in manual and automatic dispensing equipment.
