SS-598 Product Description

Download PDF


SS-598 is a fast curing, heavy bodied silicone RTV adhesive rubber. This product was developed for applications requiring fast development of physical properties and fast unprimed adhesion. SS-598 is a 1-Part silicone that allows handling of the bonded assembly within one hour of application to the substrate. When cured, the elastomer resists typical automotive fluids and high temperatures. SS-598 works well in manual and automatic dispensing equipment.

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

Curing
Cure speed can be accelerated with increased humidity to very rapid cures exhibiting surprisingly fast adhesion. Typical utilization involves dispensing in open air with exposure to ambient humidity. This method of application will result in a room temperature cured elastomer with very high adhesive properties.


Solids
98% solids, contains no solvents

Adhesion
Primerless adhesion to most plastics, metals and glass

Service temperature
-65 to 260C

Limitations
Do not use product on head gaskets or fuel immersion applications. Allow to fully cure before putting assembly into service. Ensure enough product remains between flanges to be effective in an assembly.

Packaging
SS-598 is available in 10.3 oz. cartridges, 50 lb. pails and 500 lb. drums. This product is also available in customer defined packaging sizes, upon request.

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.
