If you ever wondered what types of adhesives would work in most any challenging situation—whether it’s for bonding, repairing, sealing, or coating—silicone adhesives is probably the answer. With our recent product line expansion to include Wacker silicone adhesives and sealants, there is no adhesive solution we can’t deliver.
Silicone adhesives are among the most versatile adhesives, offering near limitless potential in virtually any industry and Wacker offers the most extensive product list of UV-active (ultraviolet activating) and RTV (room temperature vulcanizing) silicone adhesives out there. In addition, these adhesives come in many colors, including transparent. There are silicone adhesives for non-corrosive substrates such as plastics, stainless steel, glass and EPDM rubber, for corrosive metal substrates, and ones for when oil or contamination is involved (like on an old diesel engine).
They provide excellent adhesion and bond strength to glass, wood, silicone resin, vulcanized silicone rubber, natural and synthetic fiber, painted surfaces, and many plastics and metals. Some of them are even corrosive friendly and have a very fast cure time. All Wacker silicone adhesives highlight: • High temperature resistance (up to 180°C or 400°F) • Low temperature resistance (to -40°F/°C) • Bio-inertness (no bacteria growth) • Electric insulation • Thermal insulation • Non-aging for 25 years (including UV, radiation and ozone)
Wacker and sealants have a high degree of flexibility and a very high temperature resistance making them ideal for adhesive applications in many industries such as construction, automotive, aerospace, sports articles, electronics, appliance, medical and textiles.
