3、M base sealer. It incorporates an ethylenevinyl acetate film on one side to facilitate application of the sealer tothe sheet metal.WSB-M4G355-A2: The material de fined by this specification is a coextrudedtape form, heat expanding EPDM sealer, tacky on one side to adhere to sheetmetal and semi-tacky

4、 on the other side.WSB-M4 G355-A3: The material defined by this specification is an extrudedtape form, heat expanding EPDM base sealer that is tacky on both sides.2. APPLICATIONThese specifications were released originally for materi al used in the bodyshop for sealing weld joints and openings where

5、 welding is not arequirem ent. The materials have good adhesion to CRLC andelectr ogalvanized steel substrates. The materials expand during theprocess bake schedules noted per para 5.3.3.
