Characteristic

SilCoat SC8026 is a two-part, thixotropic (nonsag) coating and globe-top potting gel. It is a dispensable, addition-curing, silicone that cures at elevated temperature to a very firm rubbery gel with excellent adhesion to various plastics and metals. It is non-corrosive and self-priming adhesion, and can be automated to dispense from pails or hand extruded from cartridge.
