Fortafix High Temperature RTV Silicone

Fortafix High Temperature RTV Silicone - HT FLEXSEAL 300

Fortafix High Temperature RTV Silicone - HT FLEXSEAL 300

A cartridge applied Silicone based Sealant designed for use where a flexible bond is required together with high temperature resistance. This adhesive gives excellent adhesion between most substrates and, because of its high elasticity, is particularly suited for gap-filling applications and jointing materials of different thermal expansion characteristics & where vibration is a problem. Wide operating temperature range up to 300°C

Application
IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT ALL SURFACES TO BE BONDED ARE FREE FROM OIL, DUST OR ANY FORM OF SURFACE COATING OR CONTAMINATION. Ensure that all surfaces to be bonded, sealed or insulated are degreased, clean and free from contamination. A light surface abrasion of the material to be bonded will increase the amount of surface available for adhesion and will give improved mechanical key. Apply the adhesive to all surfaces to be bonded Join and apply moderate pressure to ensure even anchorage and solid contact of the surfaces to be bonded, so that all surfaces are fully wetted. Secure the components and allow the adhesive to set and harden.

Curing
Product requires humidity and temperature for cure.
