SCOPE The material defined by these specifications is an one component thixotropic spreadable silicone rubber based adhesive/sealant. It is capable of being pumpe

4、d, metered and distributed into a gasket profile. These materials are ready for use as received, requiring no catalyst or heat cure. 2. APPLICATION These specifications were released originally for materials used for formed-in-place gaskets such as engine oil pan, rocker cover, cylinder block or oil

5、 pump, where high operating temperatures (up to 204 C) may be encountered. WSE-M4G323- A1 Low viscosity, low modulus acetoxy cured material with medium assembly time and very good adhesion and joint movement on clean and oiled panels of steel to aluminum and aluminum to aluminum. A2 Medium viscosity

6、, medium modulus acetoxy cured material with good blowout resistance, medium assembly time, good oil and coolant resistance. A3 High viscosity, high modulus acetoxy cured material with excellent blowout resistance, short assembly time, good high temperature resistance with excellent adhesion and joi

7、nt movement on clean and oiled aluminum to aluminum. A5 Very high viscosity, low modulus oxime cured material with very good blowout resistance and long assembly time, good oil resistance and excellent joint movement on clean and oiled steel to aluminum and aluminum to aluminum panels. This material

8、 has very poor resistance to coolant/water and must not be used for these applications.
